Autism Badge Do U have 1

Bowie Fan

My mum brought me an autism badge and wants me to wear it every where when I go out and I really want 2 but at school I know id get bullied and I'm not sure if people would treat me different in town as well. When I go out with mum I wear it but on my own I don't. Do u guys have 1? I like it and it describes what I'm like well but I'm bit anxious about wearing it.

  • The infinity symbol for the neurodiverse/autism community is relatively unobtrusive. Only an autistic person or someone with some connection to the autism community would probably recognise it. It can be multicoloured - reflecting 'the spectrum' - or gold. I have one on my backpack all the time. I have a sunflower lanyard, but only use it in airports where it can help in getting fast-tracked through queues as a disabled person.
