aceraccoon:

I have proof! lots of it!

she definitely has sensory processing differences

she hears things a lot louder than most people and without her glases, she sees a lot more than other people

and it can be really painful and overwhelming as seen in 1.17

she’s probably also undersensetive to touch

what with superstrength and the way she hugs everybody a little bit too tightly; she tends to be a very touchy person (I’m not going to elaborate because I’m trying to keep things to canon in this post but I have so many headcanons. Please come talk to me.)



she likes things to stay the same

she pressure stims with pillows all the time

including the one above where she is grabbing a pillow as she says she does not do well with change (stimming to deal with anxieties! routine change is hard!)

[source for both gifs]

she does other stimmy things too

she’s learned over time but she still doesn’t quite ~get~ earth social conventions and doesn’t always understand what’s going on

she’s hyperempathetic

she’s had meltdowns from being emotionally overwhelmed

she stumbles over words when she’s overwhelmed

I have so many more reasons but this post is already too long. tl;dr kara danvers is autistic and you will pry this headcanon from my cold, dead, autistic hands

if you want to yell at me for this post, read [this] first
