On 'Identity'

Then, and now: A click and scroll through a lifelong journey thus far.

Hello, hello.

Part of me wants to defend this piece immediately against what appears to be self indulgence.

But this is an ode to all the selves I’ve been - in fact, only a few.

A love letter to all of me; the lost and found who were all wrapped up inside of autistic identity.

As many know, I am proudly autistic.

And ADHD, PDA, all things neurodivergent.

..and..

I have more to say about this - it’s evolution within how it’s attached to my identity. How I have been fixed and shaped and moulded and sculpted by an identity dictated inside of dogma and rigidity I applied to myself for so long.

That. This is about that.

The best way to read is the open the first image and using the arrow to the right, clicking through each image to read.

Thank you. You’re bearing witness. We all needed witnesses.

KF, Kristy, all of us.
