I knew I had to leave him, but I just found out he was WAY worse than I thought 😳 Im going to be single for a very long time bc I think my autism makes me more vulnerable to predators than I realized
the fatality risk of a pedestrian hit by a car going 24mph is 10%. if you double that speed, a pedestrian's chance of death from being hit by a car going 48mph jumps up to 75%. SEVENTY FIVE. FUCKING. PERCENT.
SPEED LIMITS EXIST FOR A REASON
(source: www.jtlu.org/index.php/jt...)
As someone who pretty much always goes the speed limit (or maybe 5ish over) and has been in one (1) car accident that was me getting rear ended it is truly buckwild how many men are in my replies going "WOW YEAH I MEAN I GO 20+ OVER AND THATS FINE BUT JEEZ THATS TOO MUCH"
It's not!! Slow down!!
when you're autistic, exposure therapy for social situations often doesn't really work.
Because it's not an irrational fear pf social situations for us, it's not really social anxiety.
For us, the social situations are ACTUALLY unsafe. Exposing us more doesn't change that, unfortunately.
