Autism And Me.

I’m an autistic girl and I’m going to share my crazy life.

[autismrules893]

I know that this blog is usually me ranting about being sad or angry and stuff but today i feel genuinely happy. the sun is shining, my room is clean for once, i’m reading again and listening to my happy vibes playlist. For anyone is not feeling great just know that life can throw curve balls at you but you will get better! Today is a feel-good day and there is no exceptions so get up, do something that makes you happy and don’t worry! Have a great day!✨👍🏻

I saw your post about talking about your emotions making you hungry and tired and I have the same! I can eat giant dinner just before my group therapy meeting but then be really hungry an hour into the meeting. Tho for me it could be my metabolism issues making me hungry.

Hi, sorry for answering so late...

It must be that talking about something that is hard to talk about is so tiring to our bodies that we need to fuel up regularly. thank you for letting me know that i’m not the only one who feels like this.😅👍🏻

i love it when i say a general comment and my mum takes it like i just personally attacked her and what she stands for. Like-🧐

for context, i was watching line of duty, and i said that i wouldn’t wear a three piece suit to work everyday. she then said that i shouldn’t judge people like that and that he can wear what he wants to. like i had just said i wouldn’t wear that, not that i’m judging him for doing so. i then said this and she said that i should probably keep my opinions to myself cause they can be taken out of hand. i’m so confused by what she thinks.

hi,

i’ve been feeling really down and trapped due to england being in a full lockdown. i feel like i have nowhere to go to and no one to speak to. all of my lessons are now online and i feel as if it’s all too much. the staff at my school have said that i am open to email them if anything is wrong but i don’t think i can feel better unless i have a real conversation with someone. i would talk to my parents but i always feel like i’m in their way and that they’re not going to listen properly. i feel sad almost everyday and i want to tell someone that i need help but i always feel like a burden on them. i just don’t think that they’d understand that i’m not lazy, i have no energy from having to keep up a front everyday. i used to love reading and now i can’t get passed a few pages until i get distracted. i can’t watch the shows i love because i can’t concentrate. i spend all of my time on my phone and i hate it. then my parents tell me that i’m always on my phone and that i should get off of it and actually do something but they don’t realise that the only thing that i have enrgy for is mindlessly scrolling through tiktok, hoping i was somewhere else. i just need to tell someone that i’m not okay and i need help. but i can’t. so now i have to write about my feelings on here again. i thought that i was getting better.

sorry for the long post but if anyone can help me i will be eternally grateful.

Hi everyone,

You may have noticed that I haven’t been posting in a while. I’ve had lots of schoolwork to do, my sister got COVID and Christmas happened. But my main reason is that I don’t need to post as much on this blog as I once did. I started this as a way to relieve some of my stress and anxieties and I’m starting to deal with them in other ways now. I want to thank all of you for being here and supporting me. You guys have helped a lot with my life and I really appreciate it. And I know that having 235 many followers is not a lot but I want everyone to know that it means the world to me. This is not the end of this blog but I will not be posting regularly. I will mainly be posting about stuff which I need to get off of my chest and to reply to asks in my inbox.

Thank you everyone👍🏻

Better see y'all reblogging this

This user wears their mask over their nose and sealed properly!

[tookishcombeferre]

I wanted to reblog this with a quick comment: if you’re autistic like me (or have a really tiny nose that doesn’t support your mask - also like me) they sell these things online that help to fill your mask out a little more that are made of rubber.

They keep the fabric off your face + they help hold your mask up. They are marketed as “lipstick protectors,” but they were originally designed for autistic/ other sensory processing disorder folks.

Here’s one from Etsy

Thank you for this!

my adhd. again, not even sure if this is something you can answer, absolutely no pressure, i just figured a good next step would be to ask an autistic person their opinion. thank you so much! (2/2)

Look to my last post!!

[autismrules893]

hi! not sure if you’re the person to ask about this kind of thing but not entirely sure who else to go to? so i was diagnosed with adhd about two years ago, and i do think that i absolutely think i have it, but recently i’ve been starting to question whether i might have autism too. i’ve done a lot of research, and i think i show a lot of symptoms (stimming, sensory issues, trouble with social cues sometimes), but i’m not sure if i could call myself autistic or if those are just parts of (1/2)

I don’t really have any expertise with this kind of stuff other than the fact I have autism. The signs that you are showing could just be your adhd or it could be autism, I have no idea. But I think that if you feel strongly that you might have autism, try to go to a specialist. That way you will no for sure wether you have it or not.

Thank you for asking me this question, I love it when my followers ask me questions. If anyone has anymore, feel free to ask me!

Officially 200 followers!!!!🥳🥳🥳

[autismrules893]

I just got an email saying that this blog is officially one years old today. I love this blog and I only started it to find a release of all of my thoughts and feelings and to maybe help some people. Now I have nearly 200 followers and I am feeling more confident in my day to day life!

Thank you all do much for helping me with blog!

[autismrules893]

is being asexual and autistic something that comes with it?

Sorry for not answering soon enough!

I have no clue if your sexuality and being autistic are connected in anyway. For me, I have a hard time finding any interest in real boys. I can only find interest in fictional boys. So in full answer, I have no clue.

But still thank you for asking me this question. It’s always lovely to hear and answer your questions!

[autismrules893]

i saw you have the puzzle peice in your cover profile, don't you have a problem with the puzzle peice? I've seen alot of other autistic people have problems with that and so i tend to stay away from it. 🤍 no hate, just asking. i hope you're having a nice day.

I’m so sorry that I have not replied to you sooner but I’ve been busy with school and stuff.

To answer your question, yes I do have a problem with the puzzle piece. I don’t know why I haven’t change my icon, I guess I just forgot about it. I have a problem with the puzzle piece because it feels like they’re trying to ‘fit’ me into society. I don’t want to fit into society if I’m being forced to.

Thank you for asking me this question and for reminding me to change my profile icon.

[autismrules893]

Hey, I'd like to know what a meltdown/shutdown would look like. Just so I can identify if someone is having one and if they are what would be the best response?

Hey, sorry for the late reply, I had not checked my inbox for a few days. Everyone has a meltdown/shutdown in different ways. For me, I don’t talk to people, cry or put on a mask and look completely emotionless.

You could help someone by asking if they’re ok, asking them if they want to move to another room, talking to them, asking the room to quiet down.

Once again, thank you for asking my opinion on the matter!

[autismrules893]

If anyone would like to ask me something, please feel free to do so. I love hearing from people and helping them!
