  • I was confusesed because usually nonverbal autism means someone that’s barely able to speak. I think you mean that you were having a shutdown.

    My parents used to get mad when I did that lol. My therapist basically resorted to asking yes or no questions or just letting me calm down. Autism can be pretty debilitating, so don’t be afraid to ask some time off because of your condition. It’s the least that we deserve.

    I don’t know what kind of excuse I can make. They really like to say that some things have to be done now, even though that isn’t the case. It has ruined several of my actual outings to the point that my friends no longer trust me to respect my word on when I’ll show up. They don’t want me out? I don’t get to go out. And that’s usually the end of it. Or we argue, and the result is still the same.

    They aren’t even religious? This is quite confusing to explain. They do not follow religion, but they usually have philosophies that issue from them (anti lgbt, pro natalism, ablism, etc.). That might be because their family was religious. Kinda like those who don’t practice religion but for some reason, apply it to guide them on what to do. Idk how to explain better.

    I really do want to get better, but I’m terrified.

    I must specify that our culture is very very different. They think that autism is immediately linked to several cognitive deficiencies. I remember wanting to talk about the subject to my dad, and his face immediately frowned when he thought I suggested having autism. Plus when my initial doctor thought I might have some kind of neurodivergency, like ADHD, my parents immediately turned down the idea, and I haven’t heard from the doctors ever since.

    I have to do medical appointments with them by my side, and if not, they must know every detail about it. Doesn’t matter if it’s private. They’ll even go as far as to share it with families and friends. Sure do love gosip.

    Still, thank you a lot. I’m not sure how to express it properly, but I am thankfull that you answered.

    Edit: autocorrect

    I am 19 years old.

    I understand how the flood thing doesn’t make much sense, but I can’t get out. If do something that is wrong to them, I have high chances of getting kicked out. Paired with my inability to get a hold of how things work and be more independent, this would just end up in a slow suicide.

    I’m old enough to not need my parents consent, but they have to know everything. If there’s something I don’t want to talk to them about, they will take great offense to that, and that might result in me getting ostracized, or kicked out.

    I know there are other opportunities, but for some reason, it doesn’t feel like it. I never should’ve stopped Prozac to save a couple bucks lmao.






  • The issue is that A.I. always does a certain amount of mistakes when outputting something. It may even be the tiniest, most insignificant mistake. But if it internalizes it, it’ll make another mistake including the one it internalized. So on and so forth.

    Also this is more with scraping in mind. So like, the A.I. goes on the internet, scrapes other A.I. images because there’s a lot of them now, and becomes worse.
