Autism & Fear

Fear is probably the most crippling part of an autism spectrum condition. 🧠You see It’s not the social interaction or sleeplessness hyperactivity that is most crippling it’s the fear of life itself😫.

When I was younger I was also super mute ‘shy’ couldn’t talk about how I felt and I felt scared everyday 😔. My anxiety from fear got to me so much that I wouldn’t play outside at school and couldn’t go anywhere without my parents.

But I had a thought that when I turned 18 the ‘fear’ 🤷🏻‍♂️would go – but it didn’t, and it’s so thing I have to live with. Although I am happy 😃I still have immense fear of life.

THIS is the thing most people do not talk about with autism 👆🏼
