I'm autistic. I think autistic is like having spidey senses - I can hear and feel and see and smell everything really intensely. It's cool but tough. Imagine all your senses at max all the time, that's what it's like for me.
churches are super loud and smelly (with the incense, not the people) and so i can find it hard. I like it when people understand, and I hate it when they don't think I take it seriously because I do things differently.
Also I hate it when they make plans and then think how can we make this better for people with different kinds of needs. We should design it for everyone from the start and not waste anyones time.
