This is a true story. I changed the names of the people in it, but the story is same.

My little sister Kalli is autistic and non-verbal. She didn't go to school, just to daycare, and everybody there knew that she was autistic. But then she got to elementary school, and like most siblings, we were at the same one.

One night in the bus, I was in segundo grade, she got mad and threw a minor tantrum. Just crying and whining. The bus driver didn't know what to do, I didn't know what to do (she having being diagnosed not very long ago). But for me it was just Kalli throwing another tantrum. It was...

My Curse

posted by BB2010

I made a poem about having autism for a class in my school. I wanted to share it with tu guys. Sorry that it's a little bad, I haven't exactly learned how to make a poem in nearly seven years.

I wish I was free of this curse
Things just couldn't get worse
I wish people would let me forget
All the many things I regret
Tears fall down my face
When I'm reminded that I'm a disgrace
I remember the stares I got
When I threw fits a lot
Even now that I'm better
I feel like I'm in fetters
My past will follow me forever
When people taunt me about it I say "Whatever"
But my corazón will hurt so much it was ache
I wish they would give me a break
Until the día I'm driven off in a hearse
I will always be autistic, my curse

so what do tu guys think?

A.I. (Autistic Individual) Poem

posted by mostar1219

Everyone is different,

But some of us have a common fear,

That everyone else is a normal reindeer,

And we're just Rudolph.

I know how that feels.

Some struggle with trust,

Some have different sensories o views.

Some have abnormal habits,

I'm aware of my habit, yet I still do it.

There are some of us,

Who see what we do is different,

Don't even remember if it's because they're them,

Or because of something else.

Some of us might feel like

A margarita in a field of daffodils.

I hear música and I'm kind of shocked,

To hear my feelings spoken,

From another's perspective.

We might keep our heads in the clouds,

We might...

Autism Speaks Isn't so Bad

posted by Sugarcookie788

Many people seem to have an issue with the organization Autism Speaks. They believe that it makes autism out to be a burden for people who have and for family members. However, as a person who has autism herself I don't believe that's the case.
One large cause of the controversy is how the organization seeks to find a cure for autism. This exemplifies why some believe that the organization suggests that Autism is a disease, therefore displaying it in an overly-negative way. Alternatively, society appears to have an overly-optimistic view of autism. Autism is seen as a cherished gift which results...

Crazy

posted by mostar1219

If the world has color,
People like me are paints and brushes.
I'm far from the norm like it's Pluto.
What is the name dado to those people?
Crazy.
Why crazy? We're people.
They just want to find a title
Of all libros that stand out in a shelf.
Some have imaginary companions.
Some are volcanoes erupting words and sounds.
Some just use their eyes as telescopes.
Being crazy doesn't mean being the offspring of Saden.
In this lifelong math equation,
people + crazy = people and
people + crazy also = world wide excitement.
Without those supposedly crazy,
There's no mental evolution.
Without crazy,
There's no imagination.
Without crazy,
Where's life's color?

Puzzle Piece in the Mirror ("Man in the Mirror" variation)

posted by mostar1219

V1. I'm gonna mostrar my ways to embrace my life.
People like me should feel good, gonna raise awareness, gonna mostrar the light.
As I'm fascinated from around,
Stand straight up from the ground,
And see some people are blind.
They fear that they'll wheeze,
To them, it's a disease.
Who am I, to be shy, to hold back my opportunity?
We're all just friends in need,
Who are also friends indeed.
Like a lifelong song.
They have thoughts as loud as a sudden gong.
To the world, they'll never get along,
I say that those thoughts are wrong.
Chorus. I speak to the puzzle piece in the mirror,
I say she has to...

Autism: What Is It?

posted by AnimeFan66

This is for those who care about people who have Autism inside of them.

What excatly is Autism? Most of ya'll are prouably asking that pregunta right now. Well, that is why I am here to guide tu through it.

Autism is a common disorder that lots of children get when they are born. It makes their brain get confused with all of these diffrent thoughts and dreams. It makes them go out of control and do things that they should never do. For example, there are certain times when I involve myself in several arguments with my friends on here. Even though I do it to them, I can't control myself- I...
