Adulthood... with a chance of autism

Just figured out I’ve got POTS and the reason why I’m so happy about this is because I FINALLY have an explanation for my weird lifelong physical issues. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.c...

I'm super surprised that I feel at peace with Hades's death, even just a few days after it happened. What does this mean? I'm not used to feeling stable and calm and at peace after such an emotional event. So I just talk about that a bit. Also, I share something really embarrassing about my current financial situation. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teacha...

This episode is me basically bitching about the sun and nice weather. I really hate it. I feel like I have seasonal affective disorder during spring and summer rather than fall and winter like lots of other people. Can anybody relate to this, and if so, can you please email me and let me know it's not just me? *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p...

I recently discovered that I ascribe stories to animals. I do it with the mice in the attic, the birds during the eclipse today, etc. I'm not sure where this comes from, or if it's prevalent among the autistic community. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack:...

Random episode about Instagram, the show "Parenthood" and that dumb Max character, Steve Martin, and explaining my autism to my wife. Good times! *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/au...

Cat update. Also I shared a secret ABOUT my wife WITH my wife, and I'm not sure if that was a good idea or not. Also, people need to stop demoing gummy bears at Trader Joes. And I also talk about what happens inside my brain when I have to stop what I'm doing and cuddle with my wife. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Jour...

Um, I started an Instagram… if you don’t want to weed through my BS you can skip to the last 5 minutes. Or maybe just don’t listen at all and click on the link instead (highly recommended). *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack....

I’m trying something new, and it’s scary, but we need more community. Since I often forget to include ALL the information, here is what my good friend ChatGPT said about how you can get access to the Discord (chat) server via Patreon: Download the Discord app : If you haven't already, you'll need the Discord app to join our community chat.

At least there was nitrous oxide. This was not a good time, but I realized most of the staff at that place are autistic. So that was cool. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/autistic-...

I saw another autistic person say on TV that they’re autistic. I’m so grateful to those of us who are doing this, so that’s mostly what this episode is about. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linke...

I was perusing Upwork for projects and came across a job post stating there's a medication to cure autism. It was gross. In this episode I read the job post description as well as the message I sent to that client.

I had therapy today and had two revelations that aren't really revelations, but when your brain is in burnout mode, you don't see basic things. What I learned was enlightening but a little embarrassing. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autistican...
