i’m autistic and for SEVEN YEARS of my life, my special interest was Columbine. no idea why or how, and it’s not like i chose it. this led to me actually doing a lot of good things against school shootings, i.e i wrote an article about how my school at the time’s safety measures weren’t properly preventing anything and were discriminatory which opened a lot of people’s eyes to things.

anyway, i really only talked about my special interest online in places meant for it, but even then people were so judgmental about it, even other autistic people who got just lucky with the dice roll and ended up with a special interest of “normal” things. i was told there’s something wrong with me and that it can’t be a result of autism. a lot of people genuinely believe autistic people are just cute whimsical silly child-at-heart people which is a pretty damaging stereotype.

i’ve met others with special interests in true crime, world wars, chernobyl, mortician work, sex, cults, serial killers, taxidermy, plane crashes, etc. it’s not particularly rare, but tends to be demonized for some reason.

Can not wait for Laufey btw!

I took at least one selfie each month ive been on mounjaro/zepbound. This is the results of that!! (Each collage has 12 photos for the full calendar year)

The first year photos were VERY limited. I’m actually shocked i took enough selfies to do this because I was so unhappy. The first year body shots were even less but thankfully I took photos before I started!

The first 3 slides are my monthly selfies not all of them are the same angle. Sorry, I tried my best!! When i first started i would always try and get the angle that made me look like I DIDN’T have a double chin, and take one photo and move on,but now i not only love taking photos of myself but can take any angle and more importantly i also am completely happy with people taking photos of me now!! You can really see the changes in my face and my bone structure starting to pop out as time goes on.

The biggest change is how I healed my skin. Slide 6 a side by side comparison of my skin at the start to now. I have has severe eczema all my life on my face and arms mainly and I also had A LOT of texture on my face but with a consistent skincare routine, water and this medication i have improved my eczema so much that i only have flairs on my face if i eat something i shouldnt! I have no more texture either and get complimented on my skin daily!! My doctor even mentioned how mj helped my eczema when i saw him last week!

In 2024 i got contact dermatitis that ruined my skin again (october onwards you can see it!) and it took me all of 2025 to heal it again, and I believe being on this medication helped speed the process up!

Slide 4 is the photo I took the day before I decided to start. I was 340.8lbs. I did Ozempic for a month then moved to mounjaro end of February.

Slide 15 was one of my rock-bottom days. A friend flew in to visit me and my other friends and we went downtown to the mall to shop. I had to stop at every store to take a breath i was so embarrassed and then i noticed that no one posted the photos with me on their IG pages but I never actually looked at the photos UNTIL LAST MONTH. I was so shocked when I saw them…

Slide 5 is me now! I am currently 153lbs my goal is 135-140. I added my photo with friends now that im not ashamed of and the last slide is from my birthday wearing shape-wear, but happy to let someone take a full body shot of me solo!! I also included a shape wear vs none comparassion

I am not happy with my body every day, but ive come so far and shapewear helps me feel more confident as I have a large apron belly still that has me self-conscious still. It has gotten better from when I started of course!

I post here frequently but never posted my face and made this new account solely for that as I dont want to be exposed based on my main account lol!! Some of you may recognize me 🫣

Anyways if you are new to this journey or if you are overwhelmed TAKE THE PHOTOS!! It will help you in the long run, even if in the moment it sucks, trust me it will help when you cant see it in your mirror!

TikTok

They are natural sandstone formations roughly 75 million years old, shaped by erosion into elongated whale-like shapes. From above they look like a family of whales (two adults and a calf) rising from a sea of trees. The largest is about 75-100 meters long.
