i/me And All the Autisms

Thanks for listening. I feel a bit better: I have a plan and I'll sort this one out tomorrow. It's alright, it's ok. A link to the song here as promised: It's Alright https://share.google/oY5Y4rEEMJWFjh7SO https://open.spotify.com/track/1NCZMAnGrzUmpBzkBlJjNw?si=BNhTH2Z_R6eMYAhgaBGWSQ&context=spotify%3Atrack%3A1NCZMAnGrzUmpBzkBlJjNw

Back to school and ruminating about a missed appointment...coz I dont have enough to do these days.

What is masking? Do I do it? This is something so many autistic people talk about and experience exhauation from, I'm not sure if I'm unaware of my masking or if I'm exceptional in not masking. I can'figure this one out! Help! Leave a comment or send me a voice message if thats easier: https://www.speakpipe.com/Imeandalltheautisms

Sorry about the Liverpool jacket backround noises in this one. every time I move. I knew that warming myself with Liverpool would be a bad idea. We are rivals for my husband's attention and not friends....it was never going to be kind. Not to worry, I'll plot my revenge. hmmmmmm Anyway, this is a pod cast about hens. I think it covers everything I know.....so not very much really. But my inner voi...

What factors are relevant to having a happy fulfulling life? How is this relevant to Autism? Just a brief introduction- more to follow in Season 3.

Just a side note on how the podcast was named! It felt right once I thought of it. I hope it makes a bit more sense to you now.

Planning for tomorrow is far more difficult than it sounds: lost book; vague plans with others; summer holidays; pain and lack of sleep.....all getting in the way. Availability of medication is surprisibgly challenging! Does my panic mean I'm already psychologically dependant? ahhhh

Our unique laundry system that relives pressure downstairs (from the couch pile up as the utility room overflows) and gives a short turn around from laundry basket to bedroom (which means everyone can find their clothes easily). Whoever said folding or ironing had to be part of the process?

A chaotic house adds to the chaos in my life. I m getting on top of it!

Be in action

The sunburn saga is ongoing and has evolved into sitting on a bed of nettles now. I've nothing to say except, let this be a warning to all: wear sunscreen (and don't just leave it in your bag).

MAJOR SUCCESS ADHD medication seems to have enabled me to make tea and remember who's about to call over ! Magical! My friends are very impressed. I'm getting my act together. Whatever next???

Dear Structure and Routine, Sorry guys! I kept the door closed today and told you to call another day! I wasn't fullly dressed and not feeling myself either. I didnt realise that I needed you to feel better. I'll try to be a better friend tomorrow and I will let you help me! x x Meeee.

Medications are helping but what else do I need to do? I feel I don't have the strategies to make good use of a brain that is now able to do things! Step 1: Listen to my therapist and try to do what she said!!

The speedy (non rambly) version of the kids being diagnosed with ADHD as well as ASD and me following up on suppirting my own needs....to better to support theirs! The start of getting my act together.....finally.

Can I refrain from 'the ramble' and manage to share our 6 diagnostic stories in under 15 minutes? Is there a prize if I can? I'll accept cake, thanks!

Is not listening to sensible advice an Autism thing? I'm feeling very stupid and guilty right now. If you are interested in the dminder app I mention, here is the link: https://share.google/aMqGKWupSTJa1Um7b
