Neurodivergent people who hair pick/pull as a stim:

How do I stop??

I appreciate it is a sensory thing so I need to find something similar sensory wise to do but I have no idea where to start.

If anyone has experience with this please give me suggestions for what to do instead. Thank you

Hi everyone, I need some help. I believe that the main thing causing me emotional distress is my autism. Are there any therapies that can help me with my autism? (UK)

My moms just changed my plans twice in two weeks because she feels sad. I feel sad all the time and I still follow through with all of her plans. Cue meltdown 😭😭

I’ve gone one day without any harmful stimming!! Talking to my therapist and doing my own research has helped!!

Hi!! Not my usual topic.

I have had back pain for a good four years now, I’ve tried painkillers, exercise and hot packs. Exercise makes my pain worse and the others have absolutely no effect. Can anybody recommend anything?? I can’t sit unsupported and my pain is getting worse. Any suggestions would be appreciated

I wish the goblins would come and take me away. Right now.

That time of the year again

Me: I don't need a routine, I'm perfectly fine without one

Also me with all these routine changes:

I’m really not coping with college being shut and may not reopen until after the summer holidays. Also I’m not coping with all of my appointments being over the phone.

I know a lot of people are making posts about coronavirus but I need to get this out of my mind. If my college closes then I am still expected to do my work at home. The problem with this is that I have in-class support. I have support to help me understand assignment briefs and provide me with prompts so I know what to write. This is going to be difficult if my college closes.

I got shouted at today by one of the girls on my course. I made a joke about my autism and she got offended even though she doesn’t have autism. I feel like the world is against me.

[spongebob-autism]

I like my autism. I’m not afraid to say that. I am afraid of situations where people misinterpret my jokes and start shouting at me. People think autism is a bad thing but around the right people it’s a good thing. When people don’t understand you they think you are a horrible person. I’m not horrible, I try to be the nicest person I know.
