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

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

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 question of responsibility in the mental health system is really important because notice how even when you are deferring to them as experts and doing what they tell you, you’re still the one bearing the cost of their mistakes, limitations and everything they don’t know. You’re still bearing the cost of their intellectual dishonesty and misaligned incentives. You still have to pay the cost even as you give them your power.”
