#ActuallyAutistic Help! My daughter is autistic, does well academically at school, but last year, not so well socially, and was bullied. School has isolated the bully, but other girls in her class have the same name, and when my daughter hears than name, it takes back, emotionally, to last year. There isn’t much the school can do about this, though my daughter will be able to see a counsellor this year. Can any autists or knowledgeable people suggest any strategies that might help my daughter?

@thereaders @mutual_aid@hexbear.net @mutual_aid@starflower.space @MutualAidVisibility @mutualaid @anarchomutual @blackfedi Why do you wanna join Political party? I don't think you have to, even the spirit of the truth and wisdom informed me recently, instead of beging for money as always Seek God, he's the one who can offer you over million Dollers

@mpark@mathstodon.xyz @barefootrambling@autistics.life @actuallyadhd@a.gup.pe @actuallyautistic@a.gup.pe I think it's something to do with getting older. Possibly a mix of different things, but perhaps a big one is slowly caring less and less about the social politics and norms. I used to be far more self conscious of what my body was doing, for example, and try and stay 'still'. Now I more commonly wave my arms around and act out with my body what I'm talking about, as it is more natural for me to do so. It takes for less energy for me to be all over the place than it actually does to remain still. So there is probably an energy capacity reason here too.
