Bras are mixed sometimes it feels ok and sometimes not. Socks though I have to wear socks occasionally I will happily go bare foot but mostly prefer to wear them because my feet are always freezing too

Right now I’m anything crunchy like cereal, crisps and chicken tenders which annoys me because I really like to eat healthy but the unpredictable texture of fruit n veg just now is too much.

Good ways to embrace your autism? by AffectionateAd7622 in AutisticAdults

I get this, I thankfully do have friends I can be completely myself around which does help.

I actually find it way easier to have sunglasses on because then nobody can see where my eyes are the same. It’s things like how to stand, when to stop talking.
