Journalism is dead, that article was hard af to read, she must be using AI and not proofreading :scust:

"Singer Chrisette Michele is one of 45 adults in the U.S. diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder"

That reads like there are only 45 autistic adults in the United States:dahell:
It’s the very first sentence too…. It’s like literally the first sentence.

:wow:Even the editors aren’t reading the articles on essence.com

There’s definitely more black people on the spectrum than what’s being reported. We simply don’t get diagnosed early or at all because of racism within healthcare and being written off as “having behavioral problems” among other negative bias and instead of getting help, we are unfairly disciplined and in some cases, put on medication.

The same goes for ADHD, Bipolar and other neurodivergent conditions.

The Truth
Article could’ve used some editing, it says 1 in 45 adults have autism not that she is 1 of 45 adults in the US with it :francis:



But I believe her. She said its an official diagnosis and is what the doctor wrote. I don’t doubt it either, I often wondered if I was on it myself though I never got officially tested.


Sad what she went through though.. that performance was legitimately a nail in her career coffin (should’ve been snoops instead :beli:) but we didn’t know about the miscarriage.



Glad that she’s learning to understand herself better. I think mental health should be more important in our culture but not something the world needs to know every single time. Just get you some help in life and work on your own mental issues daily.


For example, I often meditate on my lunch break in my car. I have been clinically diagnosed with PTSD and seen a lot of therapists for cognitive, pain, nerve damage, etc. and outside of TheColi, not a soul knows.

I long suspected that Nas, Travis Scott, Nicki Minaj and Kanye (the latter especially) might be on the spectrum too. They display most of the hallmark symptoms like intense introversion, being highly creative and skilled in one subject (Nas with lyrics and Kanye with beatmaking/production) and speaking very bluntly (both Nas, Kanye and Nicki are guilty of this).
