tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day agoI saw something about it pop up, were they linking paracetamol to autism? Or saying it was alright for pregnant women to take? Not people I’d take health advice from anyway.
And I think neurotypical people, or at least people who don’t realise they have something, can start having weird opinions when they have a lot of kids on the spectrum. They probably think, ‘nothing’s wrong with me, what made my kids this way?’ And then the Youtube research begins.

Thing is, apart from the granddaughter we were all very late diagnosed. As in “in our 40’s”. And like these things tend to do, it tobogganed, I found out first, His Lordship always suspected he was ADHD, but not enough to cause issues until we exceeded his abilities and some Bad Things happened and I told him he was gonna get tested or he’d be a single man wearing his own bum as a hat (paraphrased). Then SIL realised from observance that hey you can be ND and …not be “disabled” (lotta internalised abelism in that family which is also why His Lordship took so long to get diagnosed) and WHOOPS, there we are. Which also allowed her and her husband to identify a lot of things in one of their daughters and get her to a psychiatrist and learning how to teach her emotional regulation and stimulus control before she turned into the betrayed-feeling anger ball the rest of us are.

I so relate to this (particularly the ‘betrayed-feeling anger ball’ bit, lol). My kid got diagnosed in his early teens, which meant I did a heap of research to help him and to learn more about it, and also discovered how it presents differently in girls. Which explains a lot about my experiences as a child. Also in hindsight, my dad very clearly had asbergers (again undiagnosed - he was just ‘smart and eccentric’, as autism wasn’t a thing when he was young).
But maybe it was all just too much tylenol

there is no tylenol in Australia
how does the trump admin explain autism in countries where tylenol is not sold
the corrupt trump admin are relying on the experts and other people to debunk the lies, this will help the share prices rebound

Yeah, I know, was just being funny
Trump is continuing to create drama after drama, probably to keep everyone distracted from the Epstein files or play the market or something

I’d be hells surprised, everyone agrees in hindsight my grandfather was autistic af, and he was born 30 years before paracetamol was available in Australia

Or (regardless of diagnosis) it was just being difficult and bad 🙃
