I have been diagnosed at the age of 16. Many people have learnt about autism only through books and movies. I created this community to speak and educate about autism through lived experiences, as well as create a supportive community. This is for autistic adults, mothers, educators, whoever interested in autism awareness and lived experiences. Autistic adults are also allowed to share and educate through their own experience. As a huge believer of intersectionality, I also hope to speak about other identities and experiences that are a part of us and not just limit to autism. Most autistics are against behavioral therapies except CBT and DBT, we will not promote that. We expect that you listen and not judge. We expect you to not speak over lived experiences. We hope you don't dirty delete any comments, nor display any ableism. We hope that you accept autistic people for who we are.

Disabled people are the ones that mostly get bullied as our traits are always deemed "weird" which are not accepted by the neurotypicals. Bullying happens a lot, whether in schools, apartments, workplaces etc. Bullies can be children as well as adults. Bullying can take a huge toll in your life, it breaks you completely, and this pain, this trauma, will carry on for a long time, and it's not worth it. Please watch this short film by Much Much Spectrum and Ummeed Child Development Center where I share my experience of being bullied and what could be done! And yes please stop bullying disabled people! https://youtu.be/8BFwCXKkQPg?si=DbI-zjFN5h9FNrG2 #autismawareness #autismacceptance #autismadvocacy #neurodivergence #bullying

I am sure you all are aware of the shameless trolling on Prachi Nigam on Social media. Where her achievements were overlooked for her appearance. It is a sad reality these days and as a person who is all about bodypositivity , I had a lot to say. Am glad to have shared my thoughts with @zeenews who have published an article for the same. I would also like to take a moment and thank @cotoappindia who has provided a safe platform for women where we are not judged. https://www.msn.com/en-in/lifestyle/style/prachi-nigam-s-cyberbullying-a-lesson-where-we-stand-on-societal-beauty-standards/ar-AA1nYZyj Hope you enjoy the Article linked below

This is a rap song I come across on Insta by Adil Kalyankar. I liked it so much. You would also like it. Show this to men around you troubling you. Thanks to this guy for understanding what woman has to go through and suffer. When each so called 'man' understand this, there will be no need for Women's Day celebration. . . . #womansday #humanity #womansday2024 #maledominatedindustries #womensafety #malepriviledge #FearlessFemales #FutureIsFemale

Good things happen to good people and what we think is bad at that time has something really good built into it

With my community ' UnBound with Mamtaa.' I am excited to put-out a stage for women from various walks of life, where they can come together and talk about their journeys and challenges. The sheer opportunity to brew conversations that are relevant, yet not so often spoken about is my biggest motivator and inspiration to form this community. Allowing discussions that are highly intimate yet maintain anonymity and privacy, the community will be a safe and transformational space for women, who want to have diffficult dialogues yet candid discussions at the same time. Topics of engagements here will range from ageism, sexism, gender diversity, LGBTQI, inclusion, acid attack survivors, domestic violence, parenting, patriarchy, sex education, etc. The community will furthermore facilitate unearthing of women's trials, fears, vulnerabilities, unlearning, failures, detractors and ‘all that goes in the making of them’. The community will be a 'go to place- for all the women looking for validation, support, a patient listening , love , approval , acceptance or just togetherness and solidarity. We always claim to know or associate with people from a yardstick, that is their accomplishments or successes. 'UnBoundwithMamtaa.' is a community that recognizes ‘the human’, behind and beyond the professional or personal success. And with these powerful exchanges and decodings , we strive to create an impact and set in a change, for which we all have been long waiting 🌟🎇more
