Dinnertime.
7 wanted pizza. As the only hot thing this boy ever eats is nuggets, I wasn't going to say no! He's on his 2nd slice!!! I'm not making a big deal of it, and he's not sitting still, but inside I'm dancing.
Big win 😁

autistic things 22
brushing your teeth is a struggle sensory wise
we are an autistic system. we are sensory seekers and avoiders. We are an polyfragmented system so it makes things much more complex. Some of us can't hand background noises, other alters need noise to work or go to sleep. Lots of us need visual sensory or audio input that we can control. we can be very hypersensitive to a lot of things. we are also hyposensitive to a lot of things. everyone even in our system don't have the same sensory needs.
Day 3 of #autismacceptanceweek!
Sensory Issues!
This includes Sensory Seeking, Sensory Avoiding and Stimming for Sensory regulation!
Autistic people can be sensory seeking or sensory avoiding individuals.
Seeking usually means enjoying bright and colourful things and loud sounds. It also applies to tactile sensation seeking; like being very open to hugging people, using weighted blankets and even putting things in mouth that prolly shouldn't go in the mouth.
Sensory avoiding is more about being sensitive to sounds, sights, tastes and textures. Wearing sunglasses when going outside, using ear muffles to block noise and preferring blander foods are good ways to prevent over stimulation.
Autistic people can be seeking and avoiding at the same time. In my instance, I hate bright lights but I listen to my music pretty darn loud. This ties into sensory regulation which can involve stimming; a repetitive motion which the auty might or might not be aware of doing.
It's all about the individual when they're over/underwhelmed. An underwhelmed person can be stimming to burn through energy or to feel good while an overwhelmed person may be stimming to feel in control of the sensations of their own body when they can't control the surroundings.
too loud

I don't know how anyone manages to survive the chaos that's my husband's family on a daily basis because I sure as hell can't, which is why we're staying in hotels this whole week.
