Day 5/31 Ice Bucket Challenge — complete! 🧊🪣

Chris definitely didn’t get off lightly as promised… and thanks to some “technical difficulties” (aka: the recording stopped at the time of the water pour😅), he had to do it twice! Oops… sorry Chris 😂🤪😆

The next nomination goes to Kat, ready for tomorrow 👀🤩

Loving this energy, TEAM ALC — keep it coming! 💪🔥

Avoiding eye contact isn’t disrespect.
For many autistic individuals, it’s how they cope, focus, and process.

Eye contact can feel overwhelming, distracting, or even painful — especially when the brain is already working hard to process sounds, words, and the environment.

So when someone looks away, it doesn’t mean they’re not listening.
It might mean they’re trying their best to understand you.

Shift the question from:
“Why aren’t they looking at me?”
to
“How can I make this feel safer for them?”

Understanding this can completely change how you support autistic individuals.

Save this — it will change how you respond ❤️

💥💙 Myth vs Fact💙💥

There’s a common misconception that autistic individuals don’t want friends ❌

In reality, many autistic individuals DO want meaningful friendships, they may just communicate, connect, or socialise in different ways 🤝

💬 Understanding these differences helps us build more inclusive, supportive environments where everyone feels valued and accepted.

Let’s challenge myths, build awareness, and create real connections 💙
