Hey, sorry i haven’t posted in a while.
I wanted to post something important and i thought mental health would be a good choice, i don’t know why but i just feel like talking about it.
I like to talk about autistic stereotypes and how a lot of them are incorrect, to me mental health is one of them.
The autism stereotype a lot of people think is that we don’t know whats going on and we are always happy, jumping around and don@t understand whats happaning although there are some people with autism who have that there’s also a lot of autistic people/ people with autism who do know whats going on.
When i got got left out of things and called horrorble things behind me back it really took a toll on my mental health and when i tried to talk about it, people kinda just pushed it to one said as i guess they thought that autistic people are always happy and what not.
people with autism can feel/have depression like anyone else!
It might be obvious but i just wanted to tell people that anyway just in case and to let people know that no matter what ur going though ur not alone.
Here are some numbers you can call if you need to talk and that has helped me over the last few months: Samaritans- 116 123 Or if you don’t like calls Text SHOUT to 85258
Thank you for reading
