It would be great if someone could write a handbook for late diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic #ADHD #AuDHD folks like the one from Beetlejuice

Remembered how to log into my account didn’t I? Watching Equaliser 2 for the 1000000th time 😍


All I want to do is tell funny anecdotes about my life and make people laugh. The urge to do it is so strong. I’m trying to curtail it as I know it can be annoying for others. In my head I’m often like “don’t say don’t say it” even sometimes when it’s s REALLY good one #AuDHD


Autism: let’s meal prep. ADHD: YES. Bring on the dopamine from being productive! *two days later, faced with eating prepped meal* ADHD: boring! Let’s get McDonald’s! Autism: absolutely cannot eat that, been in the fridge too long, will get food poisoning. #AuDHD


My husband is away so I am watching The Rock for the 100th time. I am a 43 year old mother of 2, and a lawyer, but I still frequently day dream about having Agent Stanley Goodspeed’s job. #ActuallyAutistic


Met health visitor to fill in forms to see if son might have the family magic 🪄. She explained that autism is a spectrum and we are all on it, plus I will be more sensitive to him acting up due to my dx, and may be encouraging his attention seeking behaviour #ActuallyAutistic


Omg this one too!

I was encouraged by a pretty insightful therapist recently to share a LOT less with NT bullies. I’ll try “that’s our custom.” Who? “My people”



Good heavens. I will adopt this forthwith

I’m thinking about considering that Autism is also a place. So when someone asks…. “Why do you always wear the same thing?” Or “Why do you talk like that?” I can say “Oh we do that where I come from”. #Autistic



#ActuallyAutistic folks I give you the best @fesshole ever

❤️❤️❤️

Late night kitchen counter chats. A foot touching my knee. Talking to the pets. Sitting on the floor. A jump over and on to the sofa. A tight roll up in the duvet. A quick sniff of your hair. Quiet times side by side. Love is all around x

Conversation with 6yr old (suspected) PDA son: S: “get me bacon crisps” Me: *providing crisps* “what do you say?” S: “good” Me: “pardon? What do we say?” S: “I said, good!” 🤦🏻‍♀️#actuallyautistic #PDA

*sings* “all my spoons are goooooone…and the sky is grey…I went to IKEA on a winters day…I’ll be safe and warm, if I sleep in all daaaay, #Autistic burnout dreamin on such a winters day”


Got up at 5am to catch a train to London. Commuted through the city to the office to go to a meeting. 2 intense hours with client. More public transport back to the station. 2 hour+ train journey, then drive home. Bone achingly tired. Thank goodness for 🎧 #ActuallyAutistic


Absolutely ❤️ Thumbsucker by @_MissingTheMark as late dx former thumbsucker. Got actual pangs of woe re so many similarities. Constant napping, saying awkward things at school, unruly hair. Almost identical experiences. So much comfort from knowing there folks like me out there.


I have often thought that I could cause a major motorway pile up by sneezing when driving

Sneezing while driving. Something is definitely going to jump in front of me in that half second my body forces my eyes closed



Here is it. Best get the holy water cannon ready…….

We over value independence in society. We all thrive through connection and co regulation and having safe people around us is not a sign of weakness but strength to be able to connect and be our true selves with trustworthy people. 1/

hard relate as always @_MissingTheMark I missed my parents so much when I was away from them. My (also autistic) sister and I called it the “assembly feeling” when one of them came to school for some reason and we desperately wanted to go with them. Still makes my heart sink now
