I just read yet another story from an autistic individual who was told "I don't think you are autistic because you are too empathetic." This makes me cringe every time. IT IS A SPECTRUM. NOT EVERY AUTISTIC PERSON WILL DISPLAY THE SAME SYMPTOMS. Some of us may be overly empathetic and others may not appear to be empathetic at all. Every person on the planet is different. No two people are exactly alike. Please stop assuming you know what characteristics are autistic and discrediting others because they don't fit your definition of what autism looks like. Rant done. I hope you all have an amazing day/night (depending on where you are located). ❤️ 🫂 ❤️ All our best and love Jeni and Ross This is Me Be You
