I want you to know I consider you a vital part of my autistic community. You’re as important as a heartbeat. You’ve shown me an autistic journey very different from my own and reminded me to always include high support needs/low functioning autistics when I speak out.

I’m so, so, so sorry for the way the wider community has treated you. Please know they do not speak for me, and I will always consider you part of my autistic family. You’re just as important as any of us.

thank you very much ! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

pixie is very rare get message so kind and welcoming

For multiple reasons.

The expectation for members of society to maintain their healthiest selves, the belief that we somehow owe each other our idealialized healthy bodies and minds, will lead to more harm than allowing people to live their lives as they desire.

"Healthy" does not look the same for everyone. Deviations from an idealized and hypothetical "healthy" person are seen, at worst, as weaknesses and failures

and, at best, as something that the individual must continuously be attempting to rectify and correct.

The idea that people must be healthy is damning. It is harmful. The social pressure for all people to maintain health and whole bodiedness becomes a desire for control and that desire for control will eventually errode bodily autonomy.
