I’ve spent my entire life fixated on them and their problems, the “normal,” people, so much so that I managed to forget my own problems, and my own quite disabled childhood and this kept me masked from myself forever.

I was THIS old when I figured this out. 💜
@punishmenthurts @elight @pathfinder @actuallyautistic I was kinda pressured into being like them. Because I was a blind kid, heaven forbid I should be anything different.
@Tarrenvane 😯😳Fitting in, while sighted, is hard enough. Did you have support at home? @punishmenthurts @elight @pathfinder @actuallyautistic
@Tooden @punishmenthurts @elight @pathfinder @actuallyautistic Only for my needs as a blind person. No one ever thought that maybe the things they were calling "blindisms" and constantly saying "You don't want people to think you're autistic?" about might *actually* be *gasp* autism. I was supposed to just be normal.
