The Story Behind Our "Please Be Patient I Have Autism" Tee

Hi, it's Daniel! I’m the creator of the Please Be Patient I Have Autism t-shirt, and I want to share the story behind it. This tee means more than just what’s on the surface—it’s a tool for spreading kindness, patience, and understanding in a world that often moves too fast.

The Purpose Behind Our Please Be Patient I Have Autism Tee

For many autistic individuals, communicating in noisy or unpredictable environments can be challenging. Sensory overload or difficulty finding the right words can make speaking up hard. This tee helps communicate an important message without requiring verbal explanations.

With the words "Please Be Patient I Have Autism" printed clearly, this tee gently reminds others to slow down and be patient. It opens the door for a little more understanding in everyday situations, encouraging others to approach with kindness and awareness.

Designed for Sensory-Friendly Comfort

I know firsthand how uncomfortable certain fabrics or even clothing tags can be for people with autism. That’s why we designed this autism-friendly tee to be tag-free and made from soft, breathable fabric. It’s a gentle, comfortable option for those with sensory sensitivities, ensuring it’s easy to wear all day—whether at school, while running errands, or relaxing at home.

This tee is designed to be more than just a statement. It’s created with the wearer’s comfort in mind, offering a soft touch that avoids irritation and discomfort.

Raising Autism Awareness and Promoting Inclusion

This tee isn’t just for the person wearing it—it’s also for those around them. By wearing this shirt, you can raise awareness for autism, spark conversations, and help others understand more about what it means to live with autism. Sometimes, actions or behaviors can be misunderstood, and this shirt offers a simple way to promote patience and inclusivity.

Who Can Wear This Awareness Tee?

This autism awareness t-shirt is perfect for anyone who wants to share this important message. Whether you’re autistic, supporting someone who is, or simply passionate about raising awareness for autism, this tee helps make a difference.

For autistic individuals, it’s a way to express a need for understanding without having to explain. For families, friends, and advocates, it’s a symbol of support and a way to spread autism awareness.

Ethically Produced and Sustainable

It was important to us that this tee is made responsibly. Our Please Be Patient I Have Autism t-shirt is made in the USA using sustainable materials and ethical production practices. You can wear it knowing that it was created with care, both for the wearer and the planet.

A Small Message with a Big Impact

This tee isn’t just about comfort or style—it’s about spreading kindness, understanding, and patience. Whether you’re wearing it yourself or gifting it to someone, it’s a simple way to make a big difference in the lives of people with autism.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us at Hey ASD. Together, we can make the world a little more inclusive, one tee at a time.
