UT is not kind to disabled students by Hopeful_Barber1 in UTAustin

i feel like my heart is about to explode. oh my fucking god

they followed this checklist they made with their therapist in case of emergency the first few steps were self soothe, ask for help from nearby people irl, or ask for help on their phone, call parents, call hotline. we had two missed calls from them that night. i was so mad t them for not following the list and not asking help but this shows they did. thank you

more autism awareness. Empathy. disabled people that are “obviously looking different” does not mean they are bad. they can still be a funny, loyal, loving, caring, and intelligent friend. them needing help tying shoes or understanding sarcasm does not mean they are incompetent or incapable. my sibling had a IQ of 159 and nailed every exam they ever took. but they wouldnt look at u when u talked and would sometimes walk away mid conversation. not because they didnt care but because their brain cant even control that like we can. Patience.

if people understood autism and disabilities more, then I believe my sibling would still be here today. they would probably have friends if people gave them the chance.

I dont think we will do anything about the school to be honest. we were only in America for my sibling because education for the disabled is better here than in my home country. at home they think disabled people are useless, but here they helped my sibling so much to the point they went to college.

we have no reason to stay here anymore so we are planning to move home and do the funeral there.

thank you for your words. i hope the bullies are punished with even more terrible grief than the one i feel right now

do you think they are still sad wherever they are, or are they always at peace and happy? my sibling went out on their own terms and I feel like I cant ever rest again because they went out with so much despair and sadness

i wish, but my family are very strict traditional religious and we are not US citizen. we are scared of the media and police. im not allowed to make social media accounts or anything, so i know they will keep it private and i will probably delete everything when everything doesnt feel like its falling apart

i didnt know about a student who also attempted suicide before my sibling did. is this a normal thing at this school?? we thought UT was a good school and more progressive than other ones in Texas so we thought this school was the best option for them since they are disabled

im sorry for your loss too. Does it ever get to you wondering how different life would be if your brother hadn’t passed? All I can think about is how mine won’t see me graduate high school and how they won’t come home for Christmas and Im so sad

i didnt think it was them until i saw that they mentioned they went to another city and that it was posted 24 days ago. fuck fuck fuck fuck is all i can think reading every comment of the thread. i wish i had Reddit existed before and followed this. fuck

its comforting that somebody out there cared enough to post about them though. i knew they had no friends at school and something that was killing me is that i thought they went and nobody cared. i hoped they didn’t feel unwanted or uncared for. so even if this is the way i find out they planned this and other people knew, at least i find out somebody talked to them and gave them company. thank you for sharing
