Revealing autism

!

Society dictates the illusion we must be chasing life to thrive, so how can autistic people thrive in a world that projects unrealistic expectations of humanity.

Hello my name is Devaki and I am an autistic elder, writer-philosopher and singer-songwriter. I have have spent my whole life feeling like I was dropped off on the wrong planet. Being diagnosed as autistic in November 2022 at the age of 64 years old finally gave sense to my life.

This site offers articles about what it means to be autistic, and how to be who we are in a world that does on tolerate autism. I also share information about my journey as a very late diagnosed autistic adult, and the impact it has had on my life not knowing I was autistic for 63 years.

Autisitc people are not broken allistic people with autism, and they do not need fixing. Autisitc people are unique like any human being and have come here to discover who they are and live a meaningful life. They are not here to fit in to societies projections of normal to fulfil their journey in life but rather for society to embrace neurodiversity so all humans ae treated equally.

Autism awareness has increased diagnosis, but it has not brought much to autism acceptance, and has often been used against autisitc people instead. Autistic people feel they have no other choice but to supress their autistic traits. There is no such thing as high functioning autism, only the illusion it exists. High functioning is all about autism suppression, thus hiding autistic traits for the benefit of others.

Many autistic people have been cast aside by their families and society and and have experienced a life of trauma through abuse, stigma, ableism and sensory overload. My aim is to inspire other autistic people to find meaning and peace by living their lives on their own terms.
