  There’s a difference between “that’s a bit annoying” and “I literally can’t think of anything else and I must tear off the tag even if I destroy the shirt and I mean RIGHT now or I’m getting naked”

  It’s kinda concerning how people often are taking normal reactions/behaviors and labeling them as autistic or ADHD.

    Everyone pisses, but if you did it 50 times a day you’d go to a doctor.

    There is an issue in autistic individuals with textures. And it’s an issue you can’t really understand if you don’t suffer it. Yeah, I dress by texture rather than fashion. And those tags are hellish to me and many other autistic people in ways that only them understand.

    It’s kinda concerning and pretty annoying when some people start with the “this is a normal reaction, not an autistic thing”.

    I’m not sure if it applies to autism to the same degree, but that’s actually one of the main problems with ADHD:

    Most of our symptoms are things that neurotypicals struggle with too, but taken to 11 because of congenital differences in neurochemistry including but in no way limited to chronic dopamine deficiency.

    You try having ADHD and going 24 hours without food. All you can think about is eating. It’s very distracting. It’s an ADHD thing 🤷‍♀️

      ironically I often forget to eat and get trapped in binge/fast cycles unless I painstakingly log every single thing I eat.

    Same with OCD

  If you take a single trait, it’s almost never autistic or whatever only. But it can be a common one among autistic people.

  But there are people who don’t care about tags and let them in their clothes.

  I read your comment, thought “Am I dealing with one?” and had to reach into my shirt to check if it had one or not. It turns out it does! So… I guess so. I’m irregular in other ways, though, so I might not be a good point of comparison.

  The only time I think about them is if I’m dressing in the dark and need to orient a t-shirt

    I’ve never not ripped one off. Reee, I guess.
