It's complicated. If I CTB, I don't want to be another statistic for trans people. I don't think saying in a suicide note that gender affirming care earlier in my life (and less hatred) may have saved me would do anything. The transphobes (like my dad) would say I was brainwashed.
I don't wanna be another sign people with DID are "crazy" either. But then again, it's 50/50 whether people would think "oh wow DID systems are clearly more harmful to themselves than others, how desvastating" or "if they can kill themselves that way then what could they do to another person, clearly they were unstable."
But I would love if I was able to share about what ABA does to kids. They still do it here. They still torture children like that.
If I die, I want people to know that not only is it a form of trauma-based mind control, but it uses conversion therapy methods, encourages dissociation, DOES use negative reinforcement even though they lie and say they DON'T (what they do is they label basic needs as "rewards." I was not allowed to drink water if I didn't act properly. Because water was "a reward." That's just negative reinforcement with a different name),
and gives predators in the ABA schools/groups access to the kids who are being trained to be "normal."
You can imagine the jackpot pedophiles find when a kid is THAT VULNERABLE.
I want parents of autistic kids to know that ABA will make their kids LESS "NORMAL," not more so. Just because the kid no longer expresses their autism symptoms doesn't mean the kid is happy or that the symptoms went away.
ABA built them an emotional mask by stitching together the bits of their soul they tore out. You killed your child.
