High functioning autism isn't an actual disability and I'm sick of people pretending it is
Your struggles are in no way equal to someone with actual mental illness
Autism is just an excuse for men to be creeps

Most people would agree that high-functioning autism is not a disability, nor does it excuse someone of their terrible behavior
It IS a handicap for behaving in social situations, but it doesnt mean they can just be creepy and offensive.

I mean, to capstone this, for fuck's sake, look at Chris-chan. Should've gotten the help he needed as a kid but his parents refused, and his autism opened him up to the path he's on today
But he was and is an absolutely terrible human being whose behavior towards the people who cared about him went above and beyond any possible excuse of him having high-functioning autism

Did you forget high-functioning autistic women exist?

Anonymous 91723

autism in women presents itself differently than in men and yes they also often use it as an excuse to be an asshole or say they're disabled
being autistic isn't comparable to bipolar for example

Anonymous 91728

From having observed people with high functioning autism it would seem they're still handicapped more in a social sense. Do you equate autism with stupidity, op?

High functioning autists seem to lack awareness regarding things like their personal appearance or strange things they say. They still have to deal with sensory overload or, in the case of aspergers, a constant feeling of emptiness.

So while I see that you mean HFA isn't comparable to something like severe mental incompetence it can not be denied that most high functioning people struggle even to a minor degree.

(And usually HFA girls are quite friendly and seem to have an affinity for interesting obsessions)

God fuck off. You don’t know what it’s like being on the spectrum or the struggles that come with it. Executive dysfunction, not having any friends, being terrified of social situations, intense burnout, comorbidities like depression, OCD, misophonia, etc.

Autism is a disorder caused by incomoetent parents that didnt bother to socialise their children. The problem stays when no one says to those people that they can and should do shit to get better. They think that they dont have to because "its hard and not muh fault". Well sorry, life is a bitch, some people have to try harder than others.

Fun fact and IIRC because I no longer have the study in my bookmarks (just google around yourselves). Sperm begins to degenerate in quality at around 30 in males and the chances of an child being born with a disorder such as autism, ADHD, and schizophrenia increase furthermore with age. Start asking such individuals how old their parents (see: father) are. It's interesting to see how prevalent it is. Sage for obvious.

Uh this is not true at all. Autism is a neurodevelopmental disease, which means it has to do with the way the brain is formed before the person is even born. You can't "catch" autism, by bad parenting or tap water or vaccines or whatever. The reason some children don't seem autistic at first and then suddenly do is because that's when the lack of interpersonal skills becomes evident, according to normal child development.
Try not to be a dick and blame parents for something they couldn't have prevented.

Imagine thinking all the complications of autism can be prevented by raising kids a certain way. Nah girl, it's very obvious especially when its moderate to severe autism that it's not just a behavioral issue. It's very clearly a handicap.

Are the autistic people you know just the girls on TikTok who fake it for attention or are you surrounded with retard moids?

>girls on TikTok who fake it for attention
I wanted to make a thread about this but it seems to fit this one. I am so tired of seeing these fakers begging for attention through other people's misfortune. I remember the "neurodivergent" and "actually autistic" community on Tumblr back in the day used to shun and make fun of self-diagnosed attention whores, but now it seems like they make up the majority of those tags on Tik Tok or Twitter.
They will complain about the "neurotypicals" and list completely normal and common traits as "neurodivergent", and call anyone who only takes diagnosed people seriously an ableist racist classist because diagnoses are not "inclusive" enough. When the whole point of those communities was to exclude normals like you!
They've also been invaded by genuinely horrible people with cluster b personality disorders who are attempting to normalize abusive behaviour because it's "ableist" for victims to speak against it or expect them to work on themselves.
Not surprisingly, the community of neurospecials overlaps with the genderspecials. Horrible people, the lot.

You have obviously never seen pants-shitting levels of autistic retardation before. Don't get confused, the high-functioning spergs that can even manage to speak language before uttering obscenities against women are the cream of the crop when it comes to autism. You can't educate the literally retarded.

Anonymous 91984

op here, im fine if this thread is derailed with those. i guess part of my problem is from a huge amount of people suddenly diagnosing themselves with autism and they use it as an excuse constantly. it's like their entire identity. DID seems common for this too

They're identifiable on sight with their hair dyes and piercings, like aposematic animals.

The majority of the tourettes, DID/OSDD, ADHD/ADD, ASD, etc etc fakers are your normal insecure teenage girls seeking validation and a community to ass-pat them while lacking things such as better adult supervision - to name just one issue out of many - but there's a lot of these teenagers that are absolutely cluster B (if not in the making) and the older ones and adults that are already deep into their delusions, nonsense, and etc are infecting them faster. Even if they're just teenagers, I lack total sympathy for them for ruining important mental health spaces, opinions, and etc by crying bigotry and forcing people to cater to their role-playing horseshit. I know I'm far from alone in being further unable to discuss my disorders with other people due to these lunch-table rejects.

I could talk about this topic for a long time, and I have some personal encounter stories, but it's hard not to come across as raging or loathing over these kids. Hope you make the thread, Anon. picre, no sage cause op seems ok w/it

No. It’s not made up. I’m sure a lot of people say they have it for attention though. It’s an affliction where you cannot stand certain repetitive noises like chewing, finger tapping, coughing, sniffling, etc. It isn’t just thinking “omg chewing sounds are so annoying!!1!” It causes genuine mental distress, like rage, depression, helplessness. It has affected my life so drastically that I am almost always wearing headphones when I’m at home and I haven’t eaten a meal with any of my family members for close to a decade now. I also had to stop attending my classes in middle school because I could not stand the sniffling of other students. People like OP piss me off so fucking much. Autism is a real disability.

Isn't high functioning autism considered autism without intellectual disability? I heard IQ is mainly genetic and decreases as we get older but change isn't drastic.

I believe that just because he is delusional doesn't mean he is low functioning. Schizophrenics can have high mental abilities and can problem-solve really fast but still believe that faces live in the walls or that CIA is after them. The same was with Terry Davis, that programmer guy.

And Asperger syndrome is also considered High functioning autism now so I would say it clearly has genetic factors. I may be wrong about these things. I would like to hear your opinions.
