Heather Cook🖖Autistic CoachIf you stay small, don't rock the boat, don't shine, don't make waves, don't break out of the mold, stay in line with the way things are supposed to be:
Who doesn't have to change?
Who benefits?
Who gets off the hook?
Is there a way you can help people who are going through the things you've already come through?
The hard stuff you've worked on, healed, and can now deal with someone else's hard thing without being triggered or overwhelmed yourself?
That might be a way to use your experiences for a purpose.

AerlissInfrasound (along with the effects of liminal spaces) could explain why people feel spooked in big old empty buildings like theatres, schools, hospitals, grand churches.
But... I find these spaces pleasant. Is there a subset that reacts differently to infrasound? It would explain the mixed results of infrasound investigations.
What might be the Venn diagram of that subset and #actuallyautistic #adhd #audhd folk? #askingautistics
Infrasound is my weighted blanket 😆

Green Roc ThoughtsOne of my little quirks I didnt put too much thought about:
I rotate my pen/pencil/stylus between marks.
I became conscious of this while using an apple stylus that feels odd when stroking it while my finger is not on the flat side. now I have to be conscious to make sure my finger is on the flat side.

Anyone else rotate em??
If you’re #Autistic and you’re in a situation where you’re working with, living with, friends with someone who is regularly hurting you, and you can’t figure out why, but there’s clearly a bad situation: I’m wondering, what is it about them that is creating this situation? 1/2

What does the world need to learn from you that you know precisely because of the things that you’ve been through? Because of the shit that you’ve had to go through, because of the crap that you’ve endured?
How would you describe your ordinary daily level of anxiety (if any at all)?

"If we all worked under the assumption that what is accepted as true is really true, there would be little hope of advance." - Orville Wright
True in science, as well as personal growth. What have you been told is true that you've found out (or suspect) isn't?
I'm working to group and curate the massive collection of info I have on topics relevant to the later identified autistic journey, so it's easier to find and sort through. (Over 200 blog posts and 350 videos.)
Which topics are you interested in?
