Two rules I live by in regards to personal relationships. I won't accept anything that isn't freely and honestly given. I won't give anything that isn't freely and honestly wanted.

Micromanaging trauma survivors without our invitation or consent is an excellent way to toggle our "controlled" & "in trouble" triggers, no matter how supportively feedback is framed.

The best revenge really is just living well and never mentioning their name again.

My biggest pet peeve as an autistic person is when people project their own meaning onto what I said and then get mad at ME for it. The hell???

Betrayal, humiliation, invasion of privacy, and constant disrespect are not mere misunderstandings; they reveal the true nature of a person.

ppl think you’re upset over something small, but you’re really paying attention to the mindset behind it.

You ever watch somebody get painted as the villain for how they REACTED, while everybody conveniently skips over what was done to them FIRST? Like damn, we’re discussing their reaction but nobody wants to talk about what caused it?

If frightening sensations are not given the time and attention they need to move through the body and resolve or dissolve, the individual will continue to be gripped by fear.

Society expects us to be fake and performative because society is fake and performative marginalizing autistic people is marginalizing authenticity
Unmasked neurodivergent people are often direct and genuinely curious, which can really unsettle people who are fake and performative.

Abuse we experience in adulthood is often framed as a "choice" someone has made because they didn't escape-- as if coercion & deception don't exist, or every human isn't vulnerable to them. We're ALL vulnerable to coercion & deception-- especially so if we believe we aren't.

Recovery can take place only within the context of relationships; it cannot occur in isolation. In a renewed connection with other people, the survivor re-creates the psychological facilities that were damaged or deformed by the traumatic experience.

The smartest people are silent and observant. They recognize the game and quietly walk away.
