I Have a Mental Illness

Since kindergarten I'd been physically and verbally bullied by neurotypicals (non autistics) to the point of associating people without autism (most of them females) with rudeness, lying, stupidity and being ignorant. Now, one might say the term NT is offensive. Well, it can also be offensive when autistics are called retarded because of our impairment and it may surprise you that it can also be offensive when we spend our entire social life being alone and isolated due to peer rejection.

And he was also serverly bullied into high school. But he joined a group and met some kids with issues, made friends. He's in college now and is doing wonderful socially. He has a regular group of friends who he hangs with on weekends. Don't worry, it will get better
