Montessori Kits

I know as a child I would have enjoy having the fidgets and sensory activities , I know my child has benefited from a lot of the tools we now have an crazy amount of.

I haven't gotten this specific sensory board but I saw it and thought it would be a great idea for traveling , my child loves playing with slime or even making it . I've learned that having something easily available specially when traveling is a must have.

Woman Talk!

I know that a lot of woman experience different symptom when " Mother Nature " decides to to show up . I've always had irregular start dates even before my child, I was watching a video the other day , from Jelly Rolls wonderful wife Bunnie Xo she was telling her ritual for the symptoms for "period". So figure i give you her advice because it been helping and then also give you some of my tips.

Mine: drink a lot of water that is warm , also add peppermint and raspberry tea bags , raspberry is good for the woman reproductive system.

Bunnie Xo :

she uses Thera patches and icy hot cream !

as someone said in the tags, this bill died in congress but this seems to be another attempt at it:

SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act (S. 2767)

A bill to amend title XVI of the Social Security Act to update the resource limit for supplemental security income eligibility.

Shoutout to all the people who...

Are always talked over in group settings

Rehearse what they are going to say loads of times in their head and still end-up with their words coming out jumbled

Take longer to process jokes/people's speech

Just get brushed-off when they ask people to repeat their jokes

Always feel like they are seen as an acquaintance rather than a best friend by others

Find parties overwhelming and feel boring for preferring nights in

Feel lonely but also don't know how to go about making friends as an adult

Feel embarrassed/ashamed for not having friends

[crazythegirl]

I always feel left out of some social interaction

[solidwater05]

Apparently this needs to be said so

Forgetting things is morally neutral! Memory issues are morally neutral!

You're not a bad person if you...

forget things quickly

forget people

can't remember entire stages of your life

can't remember important things

can remember some things very well and forget other things all the time

can't remember things (or anything!) about your interests

forget to eat, sleep, go to the bathroom, etc

forget to reply to texts

remember things and immediately forget them again

can't remember birthdays, events, etc

frequently answer 'I forgot' to questions

can't retain new information

forget things you used to know

only remember things when it's too late

have vague, distorted and/or unreliable memories

depend on others to know how an event you were in played out

have other symptoms that are worsened by memory issues and vice versa

... and anything else I might have missed!

ADHD and Sleep sucks

If your anything like us when its time to crash and rest for the day , that the time when the brain runs the most , we tried the melatonin products but we where looking for something that helps create the melatonin for us !

We found this Vitafushion gummy that doesn't use melatonin it use Lutemax 2020 , chamomile , lemon balm and passion flower. Of course this mom did tons of research before getting it . I was surprise to find the Lutemax 2020 helps the body make new carotenoids .

will keep you updated on how its going we've only been using it a week

Remember that if talk or type weird all ok

Remember that if not low support need all ok

Remember that if not level 1 autism all ok

Remember that if nonverbal or semiverbal all ok

Remember that if cognitive function low all ok

Remember thay if dysfunctional all ok

Remember that if "more debilitating autism" all ok

Remember that disability ALWAYS debilitate one thing or another, if have "less accepted" autism still valid and deserving of love respect help

the hardest thing is when ur going through something terrible there is an awful middle phase of it when u don’t know if u can get through it or if you’ll ever be okay again and the truth is always you will get through it and you will absolutely be okay again but u just cant see it at the time

[neurodivergenttales]

What part of my soul do I have to sell to be seen by a healthcare professional who won’t just dismiss every physical symptom I have as being a result of anxiety or stress?

The Autistic Food Shopᵀᴹ where everything is clearly and obviously labelled, music is never playing and the layout of the shop never changes.

The lights are always very low and all food stocked is like Lidl's in the sense that all their food is their own recipe which is NEVER CHANGED.

[aquilacalvitium]

Based on feedback, the Autistic Food Shopᵀᴹ now includes a digital interactive map for customers to type in the product they want instead of asking an employee, scheduled restock days, announcements as early as possible if the scheduled days cannot be met and/or must be changed, more personal check-outs than employee-manned tills, white noise instead of music, ads or silence, a wall full of ear defenders which can be borrowed and replaced at the front of the shop and if management feel that a product recipe needs to be changed to be better, it is simply introduced as a new product while the old recipe still exists on the shelves (looking at you, every food company that has ever changed the recipe of someone's safe food COUGHCOUGHWALKER'SCOUGHCOUGH)

[pigeon-cave]

Diagrams are helpful to me

ADHD in Children

Let me be clear ADHD has been over diagnosed in children , but that does not mean , you should just ignore the signs , please also do your research in more depth , also do not try for a diagnosis on children under the age 4 . ADHD is hereditary there is a gene past from the parent or ancestors to the child .

Since me and my Child's father both have ADHD we knew it could be a high probability they would have it , however we waited until school before the diagnosis because a lot of the symptoms listed are normal behaviors for children 4 and under.
