Never Normal

3 Comments

I will never be deemed normal enough by nuerotypicals
I will never be deemed a normal autistic
I will never have a normal friendship
I will never have a normal relationship
I will never completely relate to another soul
I will never have a normal job
I will never have a large group of friends
I will never experience life like another soul

Yet......
I will never give up
I will never take the easy road
I will never lose my hope for love
I will never give up on a friend
I will never stop trying to figure out how I can better myself
I will never blame my disorder
I will never stop using my platform to benefit others
I will never stop being thankful to those that have learned from throughout the years regardless of the size of the lesson

Hi! Your post seems interesting! I never knew that you could think about Autism like that! How interesting ! Thank you! I am a student at Southeastern University and I am looking for someone to interview for my Human Diversity project. Would you be interested? P.S. I have been diagnosed with Autism too.

YES!! I can't relate to your whole experience but a lot of this resonates with me. There's a common saying in my household that we learned a few years ago, "Normal is a setting on a dryer." It basically means that you can't apply normal to the human experience, like you can with machines per se. I love your blog and all the work you do. Keep it up!
