An Introduction To Me

Hey everyone! Welcome to the Anxious Autistic Blog, where I share a lot about me like my opinions & thoughts, even those that no one knows about; along with my past experiences of certain topics, new experiences, and much more! Though, as for today's topic, this will be about who I am and why I am here on this platform! The "Inner Me". So, let's get started!

So? Who am I?

Well, you know my username, The Anxious Autistic. As for who I am on the inside, I am an opinionated Autistic woman that loves one thing, honesty. Like the legendary phrase goes, "honesty is the best policy". I am also a woman living with anxiety, an author, a pet mom, and so much more to me than what people see or may not see on a daily basis.

What do I stand for?

I stand for truth, honesty, and respect. Respect for all, not just for one, but for all people. Whether you're a Christian, a conservative, Autistic, and everything else that makes you for well...you as a whole.

Am I here to influence, coach, or on a mission?

No, I'm not. I am a simply, a woman, who is just here to share my experiences, opinions, truths about me, situations, and so much more! Even things that people don't know or do know about. Anyone, who reads this blog, will see who I am, is not obligated to do anything, or be anything they are not, I'm not an influencer, I promise that whole-heartly. You may not like what you see, you may not even agree, but the good thing is, both of us do not have to care. You may simply leave and that is it.

What can people expect here?

People can expect truth here. Nothing, but the truth of who I am, where I've been, my thoughts, my opinions, where I am now, and hopefully can listen to what I have to say without making a judgement before I can even blink.

How can people support you?

Honestly, just by listening to me, following my blog page, The Anxious Autistic, and commenting if they want to. However, if you want to recommend others here, or share these posts, go for it!

And that is it! I hope you enjoyed this post and I'll see you next time! Bye!

Autism and Modern Eugenics

Eugenics, an ugly disaster for any minority when it is directed to erasure a certain thing in a group of people that is unliked by the majority or another group of people opposite of those without the "undesirable" trait. This concept has happened for many years in the past, like in the 19th and 20th century, but what if I were to tell you that it's still happening today, but in more ways than one?
