𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱: "𝗨𝗻𝗮𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰"

Today, on June 18, we celebrate World Autistic Pride Day — a day dedicated to embracing and recognizing the unique strengths of autistic individuals. The 2025 theme, "Unapologetically Autistic," encourages everyone to accept and appreciate autistic people as they are, without pressure to mask or conform to societal expectations.

Autism is a neurological condition that affects communication, behavior, and social interaction. But it’s also a valuable part of human diversity. By promoting acceptance and understanding, we can break down stigma and create a more inclusive world.

Let’s honor the voices of autistic individuals, support their rights, and celebrate their contributions to society. Everyone deserves respect, empathy, and equal opportunities.

Autism shutdowns often hide profound emotions and experiences beneath the surface. Understanding and compassion are vital. 🧊💙 #AutismAwareness #Neurodiversity #MentalHealth #SupportAutism #AutismAcceptance #InvisibleStruggles #Empathy #Understanding #AutisticVoices

In the BBC Documentary Podcast episode “Autism, Empathy and Psychopaths”, journalist Sue Nelson reflects on being told she scored low empathy during her autism assessment. She questions this label, exploring distinctions between affective and cognitive empathy, and how these concepts are frequently misapplied in clinical settings—especially when autistic communication styles differ.

Autistic people don’t struggle to communicate—they just communicate differently. New research busts myths and calls for real inclusion. #Neurodiversity #AutismAcceptance #InclusiveSociety

"The Autism Curve" (@BBCRadio4) is a rare, careful look of the rise in autism diagnoses — resisting pathologising narratives and centering evidence over panic.

Michael Blastland takes a clear-eyed, data-informed approach to a conversation often clouded by stigma, examining shifting diagnostic categories, changing awareness, and what it means for autistic people.
