i want to use AACs. i want to cry. i want to be held. i want to be normal. i want to be cared for. i want to be a child. i want someone.to care for me. i am numb right now.

i feel guilt cause we have semi and nonspeaking alters. we have alters who needs to use AACs. we have alters with a lot of vocal loss. i am one of those alters. but i feel guilt. at times i can speak, so am i valid? others are valid, but not me. other alters can use it but as a protector i shouldn't. i feel guilt every time i speak. i hate speaking. i hate our voice. i want to cut out tongue out. i want to SH on our tonge. i tic. i stutter. i hate being alive. we struggle so much.

i miss when i would talk with people only using written word or text. oh wow. that means i used an AAC..

main host: *regressed to being mostly semiverbal*

seccondary host: *verbal but hates it*

other alters: *some hyperverbal, some verbal, some semiverbal, some nonverbal*

us on the outside: *a mostly verbal being, sometimes "is known not to talk" and sometimes "talks too much and won't shut up"

once again thinking about how fucked up it is that special ed used me and other disabled children as unpaid, coerced labor. i worked enough to be making $100 a week. i was "paid" in fake money redeemable only at the school cafeteria, which i worked at, and was forced to do things that distressed me. they gave us $1 a week, if they remembered to give it to us at all.

this was while i would sometimes go the entire day without eating because i didn't have the money to buy food and the free food was not sensory safe. we also worked outside the community - grocery stores, warehouses, shoe stores security tagging items. all under the guise of job skill development, we did $100 of labor a week without ever getting paid. and we were demeaned while we did it. and we were just teens.

so no, i don't want to hear about how special education is good. not with the way me and my peers were treated and taken advantage of. death to institutionalization, in all forms.

if you can’t eat a whole meal, eat half. you ate, that’s what is important.

if you can’t get out of bed, try and sit up instead of lying down. it’ll be better for your back and your blood pressure.

if you can’t shower or have a bath today, try and brush your teeth and clean your ears. it’ll keep you a little cleaner, and we often forget those areas.

if you can’t get dressed today, change underwear and use some deoderant. it’ll leave you a little fresher until you have the strength to change fully.

and remember, i’m very proud of you. your best will look different every day, and that’s okay.

alters using stim toys and moving them to different places (different alters have different spots they want to keep them at) and it's irritating

Void here. it's a vent and update about my AAC/TTS usage. i'm using AAC more and it's helping. all AAC/TTS users are valid. we're trying to go talk about our life and disabilities through text posts, edits and art posts so look out for those.. - Void

We love parallel play. With alters and friends. With our mental health team. It's a way to enjoy another person's presence. Just doing your own things you enjoy like playing games or drawing side by side or near each other. A friendship grown by this is helpful for autistics. words don't need to be said, but you can talk if you'd like to.

counting soothes us.

we have a compulsion to count.

it calms us down. when we're stressed, we count.

we count everyday cause we feel something bad will happen if we dont.

we also count as a stim.

y'know what? fuck it! shout out to all my fellow "stereotypes!"

shoutout to my fellow autists who do feel like a kid in an adult’s body because their mind works differently. shoutout to my fellow systems who have alters that lash out, and/or alters of fictives from popular media. shoutout to my fellow bpd folks who get clingy and have abandonment issues. shoutout to the autists who act "robotic" and love trains or dinosaurs. shoutout to the people with OCD/OCPD who do get obsessions with cleanliness and orderliness, who do wash their hands over and over, who do lock and unlock the doors a specific number of times. shoutout to the people struggling with intrusive thoughts that do get the violent ones and the sexual ones, not just the self-injurious ones.

shoutout to my fellow flamboyant gays. shoutout to the lesbians who wear flannel and have buzzcuts. shoutout to the aces who like space and cake and dragons. shoutout to the aces who are stoic and don't have an interest in bonding with people even non-romantically. shoutout to the nbs with neopronouns and names like "star." shoutout to the queers(or otherwise lgbt+ folk if you don't use that term for yourself) who have dyed and cut hair, wear a shitload of pronoun pins, wear a rainbow binder that can be seen, and love talking about how much they love being part of the community.

shoutout to my fellow activists who yell and get mad. shoutout to my fellow activists who bring up the problems in things, even if it means "always making it political." shoutout to the feminists who don't wear bras or shave, and don't get along with men.

shoutout to the men who struggle with emotions. shoutout to the men who love blue and camo and trucks and fixing things and sports and hunting. shoutout to the women who cry easily. shoutout to the women who take hours getting ready. shoutout to the women who love pink and shopping and shoes and cooking and taking care of kids and cleaning.

i'm very white so i'll summarize the next one: shoutout to all the BIPOC fitting into "stereotypes" as well. if anyone who is BIPOC wants to give specific shout outs, go for it!

to anyone who fits these or any other "stereotypes":

You are not a stereotype. You are a person with traits and qualities. You are not doing anything wrong by being true to yourself, whether that means fitting expectations or not.

Anyone who hates whatever group you are in for these "stereotypes" would hate your group regardless; anyone who accuses you of "giving your group a bad name" is deflecting the hate onto you because it's easier to pretend that it's nothing they are doing that gets that hatred; the truth is, bigots are bigots and they will always find a "reason" to be hateful. You trying to avoid "stereotypes" will never change that.

(do not fucking clown on this post. you will not get a debate from me, you will get blocked.)
