    Other Can we talk about the intersection of autism and trauma?

    For a lot of young people who have Autism and have been struggling with a traumatic experience or just under a lot of stress, they can develop what's called Auditory Hallucinations. An online counsellor said this to me after I said about hearing myself say something after I woke up.

    Was that a fawn response?

    @barefoot mum said if she'd known about my incidents she wouldn't have let him live with us but I didn't remember it for years including when he lived with us and just made up excuses in my head at the time and just pushed it away and decided I didn't need to ever think about it again.

    Anyone else averse to touch and/or being in their body?

    I know this wasn't said about me but I made excuses at the time in my head and just didn't think about it cause I was still seeing the alien and so was the family.

    Anyone else averse to touch and/or being in their body?

    I feel similar to @Givrali i feel uncomfortable with my chest and have cut it a bit and wanted to cut it off even though I didn't have a chest in one of the incidents but I didn't want my body to start looking like a w in front of the alien. I've never liked touch but I'm autistic. I wish I was...

    How do you cry?

    Crying just makes my nose and mouth get blocked up and then I can't breathe properly. I don't really cry much.

    Was that a fawn response?

    @barefoot he hadn't just come out of prison, we'd been seeing him for years. I think I was 19 when he came to live with us but mum has always seen me as more vulnerable and never trusted him cause he never thought he did anything wrong. When he was in prison he wrote a letter to my two sisters...

    It wasn't sexual abuse

    @JadeB. I found a new forum today. I have already had so much more support and not people invalidating me.

    It wasn't sexual abuse

    @barefoot not all flashbacks are things you have a clear memory of. I've heard flashbacks can be false just like memories but I believe it to have happened and it was like it was happening which is what a flashback is.

    It wasn't sexual abuse

    @barefoot i guess I was hoping for validation. You're the only one who says the flashback is something that happened. It just happened one evening, I had been stressed for no obvious reason. I had felt really uncomfortable with down there, so I cut it. It was only a tiny bit but it started...

    It wasn't sexual abuse

    @Sideways i trust a sa counsellor and what they say. anyone who has been abused is a 'genuine victim' many things can be traumatic for different people. Abuse is abuse. There is no hierarchy. I would put you on ignore but you can't do that with mods.

    It wasn't sexual abuse

    @Chris-duck see the post I said to sideways about what my old counsellor thought and I thought about things as much before I joined this site. Talking about it doesn't make it worse people just know about it
