I haven't even finished Unmasking Autism yet but I so desperately want to recommend it to so many people in my life including people who don't actually identify as autistic but while reading this book I realized a lot of their struggles actually line up very well with masked autism and maybe they'd get something out of reading this book. It feels dumb to be proselytizing autism but like I just wanna throw it at people and go THIS IS ME AND THIS IS ALSO YOU LET'S STOP FEELING GUILTY AND START THRIVING

Proselytizing Autism is such a relatable and strange place to be lol. I feel like people are so generally unaware of how Autism realistically presents itself on the inside and outside that i want to tell everyone about it and see it everywhere and then just don't really know what to do about that

Heckin' mood re: proselytizing autism. It's not "converting" people per the definition, but there's so many of us going around and not knowing how we fit among neurodiversity in an inaccessible/ableist society. Like I didn't realize I was autistic until I was just about kissin' my 30s and I'm likely going to remain undiagnosed until I find a good specialist.
