she also clearly doesn't want to be coddled or propped up, sometimes disabled people just need a little extra support or an extra second. WHY ARE YOU PRESSED ABOUT THAT?
She is absolutely not even close to the first person to meltdown because fire practice is going poorly.
And frankly Kyle only considered doing it for his own gain and Joe didn’t even push the issue when she said no. AND I think she needed that “doubt” to snap out of it and go “I AM DOING THIS.”
It helped her get out of the loop she was in like “I can’t do it. Well now wait a minute cause you’re not doing it for me! So I have to be able to do it.” Haha
It’s not a regular meltdown, it’s a neurological phenomenon
That involves everything getting louder, brighter, more intense and then lose physical control.
They didn’t show her losing physical control
I guess they felt it would be too much for the fans
As autistic meltdowns can be very violent
I am aware. I was mostly explaining how the reaction from the internet is completely unwarranted and they just think she should be hiding her experience for their comfort and she shouldn’t be willing to show it all.
In her post interview, she says she wished they had shown her having the meltdown, cuz she needed other autistics to see themselves and it’s ok to be autistic.
She said she was rocking, stimming, screaming &scratching herself (self injuring). They just played her screaming but not the meltdown
The interview was really good and I’m glad she got the opportunity to be like “no, I love these people. We just were playing survivor.” And calling her conversation with Mary a “break up” hahaha
She was spot on that it didn’t really matter what they were plotting against Joe because ultimately she was the one who had to talk him into it and she didn’t even buy into the lie part 🤣🤣
I know, I read the interview. She’s strong AF for wanting that to be shown because her emotions make neurotypical people uncomfortable because they think showing emotion is inherently shameful.

Seeing all the hate Eva has gotten all season, really hurts.
But it confirms what I’ve always known, NTs hate us for existing
She did amazing tho.
overstimulation meltdowns are a beast.
&once a meltdown starts, it’s like stopping a violent storm, but she did it
TeamEva 💗💗

Like they were mad she wasn’t talking with the other women and called her a “pick me” and a misogynist etc
Come to find out, that was the editing.
She had a great relationship with other women, but they decided not to show it.

Ya I thought her take on the Kyle Kamila secret aliance was probably the most mature and level headed out of all those involved.
