I hate when people pick and choose when I have autism. Like no you can't suddenly ignore the fact that I have autism anytime you're mad at me whether you like it or not autism probably played some part in it. Fuck I hate it because anytime I'm goofy it's "omg you're so autistic" when no I could just be having fun, like literally EVERY TIME and I'm tired that me being lively or silly it's watered to autism which like yes autism makes me silly but it's not all of it.

Every fucking time "your autism is showing"

OH YEAH I DIDN'T NOTICE BETHANY, MY NEUROLOGICAL DISORDER IS AFFECTING ME REALLY! REALLY!? FUCKING SHOCKING!

But suddenly I do something bad it's all my fault and has zero to do with autism like oh anytime I'm just being emotional and it's nothing and we brush it off but like can we not.

It's not fair I'm expected to mask and act normal and cater to every fucking body but who caters to me. Yes I want special privileges kill me, I deserve to be catered to, I do need more help than you, I do want more attention, and fuck me if I'm being emotional, I WANT TO BE SELFISH.

Shocker the sensitive disorder makes me sensitive.

But the moment I'm ditzy it's all autism and it's so funny right, that I gag anytime cheese is around me so fucking funny, and I love how everyone knows that I'm different and not like anyone else yet you all expect me to behave like everyone else cuz that make sense right.

I fucking hate all of this. And worse I don't want to ask for more help cuz either A you wouldn't take me seriously or B you'd think that means babying me and treating me like I'm 5.

We just can't win ever, can we.
