What is Success?

Edearl
over 5 years ago

Hi all,

I would be interested in the communities views on what success looks like for individuals with an Autistic Spectrum Condition, in a neurotypical world. It is obvious that we are continually marginalised by those that control a rather skewed version of what the objective facts are. 

All opinions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Success = Sanity (retention of)

    The fun can then REALLY begin as you try to define sanity for yourself !

    Personally, I like to keep the definition simple, yet amorphous = "having a healthy mind."

    Neither success nor sanity has anything to do with;

    "normal" nor "reasonable" nor "money" nor "friends" nor "family" nor "achievement" nor "happiness."

    Just stay sane y'all - THAT's success, in my humble opinion.
