Why do people think it's OK to be autistic?

Sickle Moon

I don't feel accepted and supported, I just feel defective, judged by everyone, and guilty for what I've done to my family. I know we're all entitled to our opinions and feelings, and that we all think differently, but I just really don't understand why some autistic people 'celebrate' it and think it's OK to be autistic when I honestly don't think there is anything less OK in the entire world, particularly when you're a woman and it's such a man's condition. I often feel my strong sense of identity as a female is being stolen from me.

  • This is quite possibly the saddest post I have ever read. You are femail and you can be as female as you want but to give your body to just anybody is so wrong how will you ever learn to love respect yourself when you continue to abuse yourself and let others abuse you.

    Having a child is something I have never done and partly because I never met anybody I felt strongly enough about and partly because I didn't love myself either, its improving now but I get the feeling I am a lot older than you are.

    If you cant love yourself or allow yourself to be loved how can you ever think you would be able to give a baby all the love and attention it needs.

    Stop trying to fix yourself by abusing your body.
