Joining in for #Auctober Day 29 - Gold 🌟
This character is from a book I illustrated by @axbey and has gold as their colour as it's the colour of #AutismAcceptance ✨
(also as they have a 'heart of gold' cos they're kind 💛)
Autism is highly hereditary. A lot of adults have realized that they're autistic after their child gets diagnosed as autistic. My dad has an autistic child (me) and an autistic grandchild. He's also pretty sure his dad was autistic.

Plushies are great for kids, but adults too! They're great for snuggling, can provide comfort, and can have soothing textures. Never be ashamed of your plushed friends!

Hyperlexia is having advanced reading skills beyond your age. These are the people who regularly read Stephen King in grade school.
Most hyperlexics are autistic. When I looked it up the percentage was over 80%! Not going to lie, I wish I was hyperlexic.

50-70% of the autistic community also has ADHD! The term AuDHD has come up as a label for this. While I don't have ADHD there are plenty of other autistic creators who do!

Non-speaking autistics are such an important part of the entire autistic community. We need to stop thinking that spoken word is the only valid form of communication. There's sign language, text, AAC devices, and so much more!

People focus too much on sensory overload, and not enough on sensory euphoria. What sensory things, be they noises, tastes, textures, smells, etc. make you feel great happiness?

I've had cats as pets since I was a little kid. Each one has been a great friend, and member of my family.
It's not uncommon for me to want to hangout with my cat Korra more than with people.
