I'm a masking pro. You'd never know I have Autism unless I tell you, and even then you probably wouldn't believe me. #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #aspielife #masking #adultaspie #NeurodiverseSquad – at Mount Vernon, WA

Every room in my house is designed to accommodate sensory sensitivities. #autism #ActuallyAutistic #cozy – at Mount Vernon, WA

All day.

I’m ready for the weekend! #weekendvibes #ActuallyAutistic #Aspie – at Silverdale, WA

I just can’t wear jeans… Denim skirts over my leggings, sure; but no jeans. Denim on my skin feels like hell garb. #ActuallyAutistic #denim #Autistic – at Mount Vernon, WA

Hopefully this #rain helps with some of the wildfires. #wildfires #pooranimals – at Mount Vernon, WA

I’d I could just skip over #summertime I would. #ihatethesun #ActuallyAutistic – at Mount Vernon, WA

When I’m energetically imbalanced I’m far more reactive and easier to #meltdown than when I’m well-rested and #grounded. #ActuallyAutistic – at Mount Vernon, WA

I hope your 4th of July was fantastic! #Autism #actuallyaustistic #neurodiversesquad

If you could be anything other than yourself, who/what would you be? #you #Autism #self – at Silverdale, WA

Already too hot son!!! #Autistic #ActuallyAutistic #heatwave

I’ve never had a meltdown that came on over a period of time. Mine just seem to spontaneously occur. Granted, they are usually prompted by some kind of overwhelm, but still, they arise quickly out of seemingly nowhere. #Autism #ActuallyAustistic – at Burlington, WA

You are allowed to be multifaceted. #Autism #ActuallyAustistic #Aspergers – at Mount Vernon, WA

Sometimes I make a prompt decision whether or not I want to share time and energy talking to someone. If I know the interaction will be menial I may just not speak at all. For instance, cashiers… I often don’t speak to them at the register. #ActuallyAutistic #Autism #Aspergers – at Mount Vernon, WA

I dislike small talk. #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #Aspergers – at Mount Vernon, WA

A whole entire day to myself. In theory this sounds great, right? Here’s where Autism kicks in… Routine. Broken… No good for Autistic brain. #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #aspergers – at Mount Vernon, WA

I’ve learned that avoiding conflict isn’t always the best approach. Diving in and breaking it down has proved to be a more effective approach for me. #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #Aspergers – at Mount Vernon, WA

Maybe we humans think we’re more important than we actually are. – at Mount Vernon, WA
