You are a good reason to use your AAC

AAC isn't about need.

How we communicate isn't about how needs and wants and only this exactly that.

It's about people and its about you

You're a person here. You don't have to communicate how others tell you to. You don't have to communicate in some way that society says is the only way. You don't have to somehow "earn" the use of AAC.

AAC isn't about need. It's not about only one option is best only one option is acceptable only one option only one way.

Because you get to choose your own life. You are in control of your own self.

If you choose it, for any reason. If you want it, if it helps you feel better but you don't feel you "need" it, if you do feel you need it, if you just want to practice and you're feeling like you're practicing, if its fun, if its because why not, any reason you choose, you should use AAC. Because it is your choice how you communicate.

And you get to choose when you speak and you get to choose when you use AAC. And you get to choose whatever combination of this and that and something else entirely: its not wrong, it won't be and can't be if it is you choosing and not you being coerced by others. It might not be the ideal set that makes life easiest for you, but its still your choice and if you're choosing something that makes some things easier or some things harder or some things take more time or some things more stressful in exchange for speed, then that's fine because you get to make that decision for yourself.

You don't need a reason to justify it. You just need to want to use it for whatever reason why ever why ever why ever. It all is a good reason.

You are a good reason.
