I have five autistic siblings. (All clinically diagnosed)
I have five autistic siblings, they all range from level 1 to severely autistic. To start off, my older brother by 1 year is extremely socially awkward and spends most of his day in his room. He was being bullied by a lad in his class before someone else started bullying him after the first lad moved on.
Secondly is my younger sister and my first younger brother. My sister is very desperate to be well liked and the reason she was diagnosed at a young age is because she didn't talk until she was 3/4. She frustrates me a lot, because she's always copying me to try be my friend. My younger brother is hyperactive and really loud. (There's nothing else really wrong with him.)
Lastly, my two youngest brothers. They are both profoundly autistic. One is violent and the other has scoliosis and requires a cast. They both need to be watched all day because they could run out of the house and get into danger. They are both nonverbal, but they're very smart in terms of screaming and shouting until they get what they want. They know if they do it they'll get what they want because everyone just wants them to shut up.
My parents are amazing people admittedly. They try their best to make me feel seen, but it never feels like enough. There's always an appointment to go to or an event for one of the older ones, there is never enough time for just us except for during the school year when everyone's gone to school, but then I'm also gone to school. In terms of school events for me, only one parent was ever able to come, the other had to stay at home with my siblings. I feel like a side character in my own life.
