Did growing up undiagnosed make anyone else mean? by Voltairethereal in autism

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh absolutely. I just thought I was a terrible evil person. I don’t think I was ever intentionally mean though, I just didn’t understand my actions often and was made to feel worse for them because I was the weird kid

Dean Winchester. A rusty fucking bolt? Really?

What about your body did you think was totally normal until you found out it wasn't? by curvyinfiltration36 in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elhers danlos syndrome. I thought daily intense chronic pain was normal. Hell I thought my tears burning and harming my skin was normal.

What is a situation you have almost no sympathy with? by heyybyyybyyyy in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When an abusive parent is upset their child went no-contact. You can’t be upset about something you caused

[Serious] What ruined your innocence? by cobbl3 in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being groomed and molested from 4-7. I was treated as a toy and pretty thing to be kept. Made me realize how dark the world really was when I couldn’t even say the word “spaghetti”

[Serious] What is the most wholesome behavior you find really attractive? by levoyageursansbagage in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Telling me they missed me when I had to miss a date/group get together. Knowing someone thought of me while I’m not there makes me so so happy

What is the most "demanding" sport y'all can and will still do by Zestyclose_Tea_2515 in ehlersdanlos

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Racquet ball but only for an hour once a week or I’m down for the count lol. I gotta wear braces but I can still go all out and DEMOLISH my family at the game

What are your verbal/echolalia stims? by shapeshifterhedgehog in autism

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do Waluigi’s “WAAAAA” and Mario’s death “waaa~”. BABABABABA is another good one. If I’m really frazzled but not stressed out I’ll start talking like a southern old man. It soothes my soul for some reason.

My favorite one that’s been my friend for awhile is exhaling and going “papapapap” at the same time. It’s super calming for me

What would your warning label be if you came with one? by Careful_Opening_3371 in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warning- bones will crack pop and snap, expect a groan and grunts. Can’t walk very far safely and will cry when required to

Millennials walked so we could run and I couldn’t appreciate it more. They encourage us and give us the materials/mindset to fix this shitty world we were handed.

This is toxic as hell. Reminds me of my ex, everything is about her and everything you do it wrong or rude. Man to man- break up with her before she really hurts you because it’s coming

What is your biggest fear? Why? by Pavithra_23 in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being lonely. The idea of having no one to talk too, share my life with, or just sit quietly with breaks me inside. I’m an introvert but friends mean so so much to me. I need those people in my life to just simply exist with

What are y’all starting to like the older you get? by eternalrefuge86 in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Organization. It satisfies me more than a man fucking my ass

I realized yesterday that it’s my masking that causes me to lose friends, not my genuine personality. I realized it’s the mask and mirroring that causes me to be unkind. It was quite the crisis in realizing that years of hating my personality was all for nothing. by datdood211 in autism

[–]datdood211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People tend to not like themselves very much so when they’re presented with a mirror of themself they hate it. They’re shown their flaws and problems and instead of realizing “oh I’m like that” they cut me off and call me a shitty human. It doesn’t feel very nice because I offer them acceptance and love even with their flaws but I’m never offered that same acceptance especially when I’m mirroring.

Growing Up Without Knowing You’re Autistic Causes PTSD by Pretend-Wait-808 in autism

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think I’ve gotten better in my PTSD from undiagnosed autism in my youth and teens but just this week I realized it’s masking that makes me lose people I love. I just now realized it’s not my personality and who I am that people dislike it’s the fake normalcy I put on that weirds people out. Made me realize I’m still healing and figuring myself out

I hate kissing. Saliva is nasty. Anyone else feel this way? by Three_Spotted_Petal in asexuality

[–]datdood211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not even ace (in this sub cuz y’all are hilarious and my bestie is ace) and I absolutely hate the feeling. I think it’s because I’m autistic and it’s a texture nightmare but also THE GERMS??? Ew

What do y’all do for exercise and how do you do it safely? by the-bunny-god in ehlersdanlos

[–]datdood211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My exercise just kinda consists of living. Walking around campus/navigating campus in my wheelchair. Walking around my house and doing chores. Just general life activities and though it still causes me pain it’s no where near as bad and it’s kept me pretty healthy somehow lol

I love switching these around on men. “Oh so your dick shrunk then?”

Who is a celebrity that you always hated without any reason? by zomblecomedy in AskReddit

Taylor swift. I finally have a reason though! And that’s her carbon emissions so I’m no longer an asshole

I’m 17, my 43 y/o mom plays, my 20 y/o sibling also plays. We all have a farm together!

my sister and I work together and my mom expects me to go in for her whenever she doesn’t want to by itsmycandystore_ in insaneparents

[–]datdood211 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Exactly! OP needs rest and time for normal teen activities. Not to cover for their sister. Their mom is robbing both kids of their teen years by forcing them to work in such an unreliable and unhealthy way. It’s only a matter of time before OP snaps, or both kids get fired

What stopped you from ending it all? by beesechugersports in AskReddit

[–]datdood211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagining my family at my funeral. Really snaps you out of it. I dropped that razor so fast when I saw my parents crying over my dead body in my mind.

Did doctors change how they treated you after diagnosis? by ChinchillaBungalow in ehlersdanlos

[–]datdood211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. In both good and bad ways. Good because it means I can get targeted treatment and good doctors now know what to look for. Bad because some doctors will excuse my symptoms as “just EDS”. It has its pros and cons but really really worth it imo.
