Twitter/X thread from Victoria Duncan on X:
"At some point, very early on, undiagnosed neurodivergent children are faced with a terrible dilemma.

They will tell someone they're in pain, someone they trust, and that person will say no they're not. That didn't hurt. It can't have. They're being selfish/dramatic/lying.

The child has to get their head around it. They feel pain, but a trusted caregiver says they don't and they're being bad for saying so. How can it be true?

There are only two, bad, options.

The child may choose to believe the caregiver and decide that they are wrong about their pain. They will make this choice again and again over the years and slowly learn to ignore their body until they are barely connected to it at all. They learn not to trust themselves.

Or, the child might not be able to ignore the reality of their pain. In which case, they have to give up on pleasing their caregiver by keeping quiet as demanded. They learn that adults won't believe or take care of them. They learn not to trust other people.
I think whichever choice you make, you carry the rest of your life, disconnected either from your own body and experiences, or from other people and meaningful relationships. Maybe both.

Anyway, diagnosis is the only way out of the dilemma. It's the only way your reality can be different from other people's without someone being at fault - is if you have a word like "sensory overwhelm" to explain the difference.

That's why diagnosis changes lives & why people want it so much.

This is about saying you're in pain because of sensory overwhelm, but it can also be about saying you're tired from sitting still or socializing or reading and someone says you can't be. Saying you "don't like" an activity you find hard, and having people assume the worst of you.

An SFW comic featuring two androids. One of them has green hair and the other has pink hair, so those will be their names for this description. Green says, "I cannot send the file via e-mail. It exceeds 25MB." Pink replies with, "Then: Let us transfer it through cable" and holds up her cable. Green blushes and begins to overheat, "Port-to-port c-connection? Ah... Okay. Please disregard my error screen; I am operational." "Kay!" Pink chirps and plugs her cable into Green's port. But then it's Pink's turn to blush as she receives the file and asks, "Is the file “An_ incomplete_list_ofreasons why_I_likeyou+_whywe should_date.txt?” what you wanted to send?" To which Green nods and Pink goes "ah <3".

"It's so hard being otherkin people don't get it" NO TRUST ME THEY DO you just have to remove any otherkin specific lingo around it.

You aren't a "techkin android robot thing", you just "see yourself as sort of like a robot and think that's cool". Trust me on this because I do this all the time with my irls. I have "robot" in my instagram username. I talk about robots all the time. I say I see myself as a robot. And I like robots so much because I relate to them and think they're cool. And that I wish I was a robot. Even making jokes that I have no brain, only a shitty motherboard that was actually really good by 2006 standards (and adjacent jokes). And nobody is like "ooh look at this robotkin freak" they're like "yeah that's [gadget] he's really into robots nd computers, probably because he's autistic" (but you could probably get around that being neurotypical, my friends just say it's bc I'm autistic because I'm very openly autistic)
