Oh my ❤️I’m doing a quiet weep in ASDA 🤭thank you so much xXx 💐
From a young girl who struggled to fit in at school feeling isolated in the societal expectations of what it meant to be a girl & then a woman with Aspergers. Her bravery inspired me to find my own #journey and #voice so thank you @CarlyJonesMBE for standing up to be heard🥳

As one of the people who will be unable to walk, work or even get out of bed if my meds run out, I'm looking forward to hearing from the leave voters how they plan on feeding my kids and keeping a roof over our heads!

So yesterday, I was doing an orientation for our new teen interns and we ended up talking about mental health in men (they're all boys)
There were a lot of dismissive 'ugh emotions?' remarks and so I asked them if any of them knew Etika

£1.8bn sounds like a lot of money.
But the NHS actually has a backlog of around £6bn of repairs or replacements that need carrying out.
Please RT if you won’t fall for the spin and help raise awareness of ongoing underfunding by this government.

In the real world most of the disabled people I know are stronger than you, work harder than you, are more resilient than you, are more compassionate than you, take bigger risks than you and make a bigger impact than you. And that must annoy the crap out of you.

My heart goes out to Joel's family. This highlights tragically just how difficult change and uncertainty can be for people with autism and why employers and groups need training and support. As proud Nana to an awesome 9yo my heart bleeds @CarlyJonesMBE

...and as well as co-occurring (& entirely preventable) MH conditions, huge examples of diagnostic-overshadowing and misdiagnosis throughout our almost 4K membership. 86% polled (Feb 19) felt their daughters gender had been a barrier to diagnosis figsuk.org/member-experience…
This was our experience. We had a perfect and healthy #autistic child. Transition to secondary bought about cliff-edge MH decline. Autism finally diagnosed, but now lacking holistic #ASC appropriate MH support to help them recover. This is what needs to change. #FailFirstThenFix

#Oliverscampaign It is a disgrace that this man was NOT given a custodial sentence and this lenient sentencing speaks volumes about how our most vulnerable are viewed by the judicial system. Care worker caught on CCTV abusing 'vulnerable' autistic man getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-…

Masking is a massive hurdle as unless clinical professionals are aware the person in their office is likely absolutely STILL masking during that appointment the diagnosis isn't made and they go round in circles 😢feel free to drop me an email [email protected] 👍📧
Replying to @CarlyJonesMBE
How can I get anybody to listen to me regarding my daughter? I cannot get a referral for her as she presents in public as ‘normal.’ She is high functioning and is excellent at masking. She is struggling and I can’t get anybody to ‘do’ anything.

RT pls
My daughter can watch TV in her head by remembering it and imaging it and making the characters move around.
I can't as I am aphantasic (no mind's eye)
Can you? I'm curious

Being sensitive is okay. Too often, especially in academia, we associate being sensitive with weakness. I'm really tired of assuming I am weak because I have feelings. It shouldn't be that way. There's nothing wrong with being human. #AutisticsinAcademia #ActuallyAutistic

#JohnBercow is refusing to issue an invitation to @realDonaldTrump to address the UK Parliament this summer.
Bercow states that it’s an ‘earned honour’, not a right. An honour #Trump doesn’t deserve, citing ‘opposition to racism & sexism’.
RT if you support Bercow’s decision.
