Autism And Alll - Blog Posts

As an autistic person, I didn’t have this experience, because I not only have had a loving and unusually accepting family all my life, I’ve had a friend group almost entirely made up of fellow neurodivergent people. But some of my autistic friends have had this experience. I try to reassure them that someone will love them for who they are, that for some friendships, there aren’t any lines at which their friends will get sick of them. I will never get sick of someone for being “too autistic” and cut them out of my life. At times, I may get sick of a certain behavior and need a break from that particular thing, but I will come back, and there are others, autistic and not, who are the same way. I want everyone reading this to know: there are people who would love you as you are, even if you haven’t met them yet. And if you feel alone, feel free to message me; I may be just a stranger on the internet, but if I can help someone by listening and being there and being the friendly oddball I am, I’d be glad to.
