I don’t consider any person with autism a freek. But, I wish desperately to be able to communicate with my two sons- the way you have just written your emotions. They can not even do that. Some of us, just need answers to simple questions like “why are you crying?” or “what is the matter?” so I can help them when my sons are upset. You are blessed to be able to be able to express your feelings freely- there are alot who are not.
Sadly people fear that which is different than them sometimes they even try to destroy that which is different. Sadly this is a driving force behind the cure campaigns they don’t understand us so they assume that we are broken or that we suffer and so on so they convince themselves that whipping out any future people like us is humane when it is actually genocide of an entire people.
It’s so depressing to read about this stuff. People tell you that you’re a freak who needs to be cured, and it lowers your self-confidence enough for curebies to cite is as a reason to cure autism.
