the autistic tahiti naming guide.

people keep asking why the product lines are named after vacation destinations.

the answer is simple: chronic illness is a trip you didn't book, can't cancel, and definitely can't afford.

so we named them accordingly.

autistic tahiti. because autism isn't a disorder, it's a destination. you didn't choose to go there. you were born there. and the travel guides are all wrong.

dopamine dominica. because attention isn't missing, it's spent somewhere nobody scheduled.

lyme luxor. because lyme disease is an ancient mystery wrapped in a modern insurance denial. it's archaeological in scope and bureaucratic in damage.

parasite panama. because something moved in, and the paperwork says you're fine.

frequency shift. because the signal changed and you were the only one who heard it.

yeshua lineage. because some of us are running on faith while the system loads.

every destination is a diagnosis. every diagnosis is a receipt. every receipt deserves a shirt.

welcome to autistic tahiti. the weather is unpredictable and so are we.
