generative AI is an ecological nightmare. i really enjoy your posts and hope you consider creating graphics without using resource intensive ai.
also, and this isn’t directed at you, risperidone is a nightmare drug with horrifying side effects. i cannot fathom that its use is appropriate for autistic people, let alone children.
“behavioral health” facilities are overflowing with misunderstood neurodivergent people-especially autistic folks. all of them are being force fed risperidone regardless of their propensity for violence or presence of psychosis. this is incredibly dangerous and should be seen as malpractice. all these drugs do is make people MORE COMPLIANT. that’s not the same as relieving distress. all compliance does is make life more pleasant for autism moms and shitty husbands.
As an autistic person who is experiencing severe burnout, I have to conserve my energy and use it carefully. I use graphics sparingly and will continue to use AI to do that. This may or may not change based on how my energy level and situation. I am not trying to be a professional artist here. I write because this is my preferred medium of communication and I can get my POV across carefully using my energy and minimum financial resources. Please feel free to create your work the way you like. I wish you the very best
This article is super revealing! I'm ADHD all the way, with hints of Autistic Traits. And I Lo-o-ove coffee! It makes me feel great in ways that most people don't understand.
Thank you for sharing this! It seems difficult enough to parse out individually, but I am also curious about impacts in AuDHD folks.
There are many ADHDers - like myself - who find that coffee, whilst often helping with focus, can also make us feel sleepy.

it’s beyond comprehension.

So curious about how the mind works on the neurochemical level, especially in cases of neurodivergency. Thank you for prompting my next deep dive!
