  • I swear some autistic groups are designed for idiots

    How you call yourself an autistic group but promote ABA? How you call yourself the leader of an autistic group but keep vouching for autism speaks?

    I will speak out against what I find it’s wrong and if they don’t like it, shame on them

    did you personally experience ABA?

    I did. They told me that I need to fix myself

    The ones that need fixing are them. Maybe they should’ve thought about things from a person of color’s perspective instead

    Unfortunately ABA is heavily promoted in US and Canada. So it's not that surprising that a group would promote it. Although a little research would clearly indicate it can have a profoundly traumatic impact on patients who undergo such treatment.
    Situational update; so remember when I said I had to quit a group due to bullying, and bad people?

    Apparently the organizer wants me back, don’t know why. I don’t want to go back but a part of me also wishes to challenge myself, sort of

    I don’t know if I wish to engage with these people as it just happened

    I wouldn't join back. You closed the door and showed, that you have dignity. Those people are still there, behind that door.

    Something to consider, is that people can manipulate. The organizer could be being genuine. Or they are putting on a guilt trip, to get you to come back.

    Trust what you know is true. If the organizer has never done anything about those that bully you. Then don't listen to the coaxing to come back.

    I won’t go back

    The co organizer is still blaming me, saying I’m toxic and stuff. Yeah I made mistake, messed up but guess what? Not everything is my fault

    The group isn’t for me. As for the others, I don’t care about them. They don’t place any importance in my life
    Do you guys wish there are spaces where people can chill?

    Some days I just want to relax as it helps with my mind

    I made a mistake arguing with a few idiots on discord

    It’s all good. I’m doing fine. People are here are cool, so I will talk more, I suppose
    I think the more I advance in my life, the less risk I’m willing to take. I’m also change averse even though I always hated it

    Truthfully, I had a easier time taking calculated risks when I had nothing as I had nothing to lose, nothing to worry

    Somehow it can’t be overcomed, rather it can only be tamed
    I’m glad I didn’t go camping

    Feel much better sleeping at home, though I get bored and lonely at times. It happens to everyone though, we all go through stuff

    Glad you are doing okay. I am losing my freedom, l actually love being single. But it's better for me to be with a guy friend now.

    I think too much, that’s my issue

    I wish I can be more free but it’s on my part to be free
    I love Indian people but seeing them everywhere irks me

    I can’t go around town anymore without seeing them, them family. It’s infuriating

    What is infuriating about seeing family groups around town?

    Lots of them

    It reminds me how out of control everything is
    I just went through an intense panic attack, 20 minutes ago

    I legit don’t like crowds. They anger me

    I can hit panic level, my anxiety is worse. That's some of the reason l am living with someone, l feel more grounded.
    I have a question for those living in Northern Europe

    I’m currently looking into countries like Norway, Sweden, Switzerland. Scandinavia is an option too

    What’s life like? What is the cost of living? Is it neurodivergent friendly? Is it friendly for foreigners? Lot of questions, thanks

    Like anywhere, if one is rich, one can avoid the dumb masses. Scandinavia subsumes Norway and Sweden. Denmark is a cleaner, tidier Britain. Sweden has a nasty problem of integrating their non-Swedish poplulation, *cough*, and Switzerland, is just lovely. Neurodivergent friendly, meh, most people still don't know what it means.

    Hope this helps.

    I was looking into Japan but no thanks

    The culture there isn’t for me
    I have a quick question: how do you guys process all the information out there, aka garbage on the internet

    Not going to lie, all the information as well as knowledge is current confusing me, and I hate it

    Indeed. To quote Ringo Starr, "You know it don't come easy!"

    One of the first things I do when wanting to confirm a story and its facts is to check the wire services (Reuters,UP, AP). If they print it, it is likely confirmed well beyond just a rumor or media stunt.

    Knowing that it's just a bunch of noise allows me to ignore things that aren't conductive to my life and goals. I think even neurotypicals get overwhelmed by it, and focus is really becoming more important as time goes on

    I use ... my "science lab" which I should know as Computer Electronician (www.forum.projectregial.one) ... but i'm not a bad electronitian even FWIIW
    I might get extreme hate for saying this but I’m sick of living in North America

    I’m not sure if the society is fit for me. Struggling with emotional issues, mental issues

    I cant go back to China, won’t. I don’t know where else can I go that fits me
    People seem to love invalidating others for some reason

    Hey it’s all good on my part though, even though I don’t get it
    Anybody heard of the YouTube channel the thought spot?

    Irene is quite good and I love her content. As a single guy, I was just watching one of her episodes she made, on relationships

    Even though it was painful, I sat through as I needed to hear that. Uncomfortable discussions make us grow

    I realized how much I lack in relationships, or maybe not. Maybe I haven’t actively searched
    People love to say all I do is think

    First of all, their opinions do not matter. Second, breakthroughs often come from extensive thinking so it’s good

    I also write a lot. How do you think I have a wide catalog? Listening to music, extensive reflecting, research, reading different books. Different things, different elements
