Anonymous asked: I'm sorry if this question is out of line or wrong. But have you ever thought that your autism may be a representation of people that are actually more connected than those without it? Like, somehow able to interact with a bigger spectrum of reality? Maybe some sort of mystic quantum seer?

I’ve been told that before, but I think it’s completely wrong, and pretty offensive.  You probably don’t mean it that way, but I have been exploited by too many new agers to go down that road again.

Notes:

  2. fairyglitterwitch said: agreed. Those of us who are autistic don’t need our existence justified by some weird special reason that without which our lives would ‘lose value’. We have every right to exist with or without special reasons.
