OH MY GOD
btw “doctors can be confidently wrong n ignorant” also mean:
“people not know what actual high support needs disabled/autistic look like” also include doctors
“people not know what actual level 2 & 3 autism looks like” also include doctors
“people who think struggling a lil more than average nondisabled neurotypical = have higher support needs or be level 2/3” also include doctors
all those include doctors who licensed to diagnose autism.
doctors diagnose level 2 & 3 autism wrong, too.
wouldn’t trust doctor who seem only have verbal speaking adults who able be independent enough not need carers to give services to me.
wouldn’t trust doctor who to them am might be most high support needs most severe person they ever work with, or even met.
doctors can specialize sure, but that mean specialize on one area on top of already have general understanding of everything in their scope of practice, not specialize in one thing so have excuse not know about other things in their scope of practice.
not trust doctors who not even have basic understand of high support needs autistics & level 3 autistics & nonverbal nonspeaking autistics to work with anyone autistic, tbh, even low support level 1 verbal autistics.
a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
come on

Are you with me?
Spread the word.
hey now that it’s disability pride month can you please remember to include people with Down syndrome and other chromosomal defects into your activism. they’re so often left behind. I literally never see anyone spreading Down syndrome awareness that isn’t close family of someone with Down syndrome. They exist and they’re living breathing humans who deserve just as much activism as every other disabled person
This actually reminds me of a time I was in a hospital at an Epilepsy Monitoring Unit. It was in a pediatric hospital because I was 16 iirc. I was supposed to be there for three days, and potentially be temporarily taken off my meds while I was there. Well the woman who did my EEG there stopped it after 24 hours. She completely ignored the directions and never took me off my meds for the time I was there.
The issue is, i am diagnosed with epilepsy. I have had it show up on an EEG before. I also have PNES, for context. Right now, my epilepsy is managed enough that my PNES is the main issue.
The fact she immediately ignored all directions the moment she saw I was having PNES episodes from the portion of the EEG she saw. If she just did what she was asked, would I have gotten a better understanding of my epilepsy?
I don’t know if this is truly malpractice or not. Just felt the need to get it off my mind.
“You know that’s medical malpractice right, no doctor is actually doing that.”
Bold of you to assume doctors actually care about what’s malpractice or not when it comes to treating disabled and intersex people
