Comfy 1/4

I hope you enjoy this story! I wrote Comfy as both a graduation thesis and an exploration of positive autism awareness :)

A message I would like to tell fellow autistic people: you are loved.💗

Autistic burnout can be brutal. When I hit burnout my brain shuts off. It's like hitting the power button on a computer when it overheats. Shutting everything off in order to let it cool down.

Also, for those who don’t know. Hey, I’m I didn’t talk about this part of me for years. The stigma is huge and depression was often better understood. But, yes. I am autistic. And I decent art!

There's a reason I don't actively seek out new friends on my own: I'm awkward, I'm loud, and I never realize when I'm being awkward or loud.

I noticed trending and thought I'd share some of my work!

I'm an artist who enjoys drawing diverse and vibrant characters. Lately I've been enjoying this doodle style.

I think in pictures, so figuring out how to describe things can be really tough. Sometimes when I want someone to do something I'll just do it myself because it's easier than explaining it.

Vagueness is the bane of my existence. There's just too many variables as to what the person means, and I don't have the ability, nor the confidence to assume what they actually mean.

Some days are so much worse than others. It's a struggle just to get out of bed. If you've had days like this it's okay. You did your best even if all you did was survive.

Nothing like hyperfixations to take over your entire life leaving you no room for anything else! When I latch on to a character I dig my talons in hard!

I wouldn't have managed so well in this difficult year of it weren't for the of my many friends here & elsewhere. I hope I may have done the same for some of you. We share the same struggles, the same kinship, the same purpose. Happy Holidays all.

Gender roles have always confused me. I've never followed them. When I finally found out that I'm non-binary it all made sense, and understanding it from an autistic stand point has helped me know myself better.

I was so bummed by that gaslight kids that I made one that is not traumatic. It’s for ALL kids because it’s not necessary or healthy for minority groups to assimilate against their wishes and neurology. Alt text added to each image. 10 slides
