Some of you may have already read my last entry. And like I said in the Post script, I don’t disagree with anything I have said, so I have no means of taking back what I said.
In this entry I plan on clarifying and expanding what I said before, like I said I would in the p.s.s.
From my last entry- “A ‘way of life’ is something that you choose to do and proceed with it, not something you are given. Whether what you are given is ‘a gift’ or ‘a curse’ matters not with the way you choose to live your life.”
Your way of life is your own course of conduct. There is absolutely no way you can be outwardly forced to make certain choices in your life. You make the final decisions, and nothing that you have ever been given can change that. Decisions can not, as far as I know, be influenced on you. Only the choices can. When it comes down to it, YOU make the decisions that move you forward in life.
From my last entry- “Having HFA, LFA, PDD-NOS, Asperger’s Syndrome, Bipolar disorder, ADD, ADHD, and all the others is what you are going to live your fucking life WITH, not something you are going to live your life AS.“
I want to clarify that I am not aiming this to one particular group of people, I am aiming it to everyone. This is for the ND’s, the ‘curbies’, the ‘mercury malitia’, the parents of autistics, the autistics themselves, and even the people that have nothing to do with autism and the like. Everyone needs this friendly reminder that they have their own way of life, no matter how you look at it.
I will now allow you guys to give your own opinions on this. I am not sure if I have opened this entry enough for propper discussion, but I would still like some different sides of the story, or different opinions, or some sort of comment from this.

A “way of life” is something that you choose to do and proceed with it, not something you are given. Whether what you are given is ‘a gift’ or ‘a curse’ matters not with the way you choose to live your life.
Having HFA, LFA, PDD-NOS, Asperger’s Syndrome, Bipolar disorder, ADD, ADHD, and all the others is what you are going to live your fucking life WITH, not something you are going to live your life AS.
The aspie way of life should not be celebrated because it doesn’t exist. There are no guidelines or definite rules that say that every aspie has the same way of doing shit.
Fuck.
I feel like rioting.

P.S.: Sorry, I kinda had to vent. I want to clarify though, that I don’t disagree with anything I said. I also want to add, that even though you shouldn’t celebrate an aspie way of life you can still “celebrate” aspects of it. I won’t exactly be joining you on that though, I have better stuff to do.
P.S.S.: I might post another entry later to expand on what was said here.

My mind just loves to get in the way of what I used find extravagantly good, and then make it seem like shit.
I have convinced myself that Neurodiversity contradicts itself, on the grounds of what it stands for and what it does. The Neurodiverse say they accept any type of people, yet they can breath down a Neurotypical’s neck for not having the same beliefs they do. Doesn’t having a different opinion make you a person?
I know neurodiversity won’t last.
But then again, who am I to say whats right and whats wrong, or what last or what doesn’t. How is anyone else entitled to that?
Fuck it.
Anyone up for a riot?
