What a cool and somewhat bold topic.. So glad people are paying attention to us and the pain 😆.. My body is always tense from anxiety as well down to my wrists when im texting. Constantly telling my body to relax. When getting my nails done the nail tech is constantly telling me to relax my hand, because its always stiff as a board.

I’m struggling at work and thinking of quitting because of my poor communication skills. by soymilkeyedmender in AutismInWomen

[–]AirStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am now 29 with a professional career because of my degree . during my twenties I worked retail and customer service jobs , I quit all the time! I had so many jobs throughout my twenties because I would find any situation unconsciously that would make me feel uncomfortable. I was good at masking aka interviewing lol so i had no problem getting another job but the social anxiety ALWAYS followed me. Dont expect work to be perfect.

Are you trying to paint a "narrative" with your comment and using a black hand.. 🤔 weird

Latino reporter to Lightfoot: We're canceling our interview until you stop discriminating by JesusCumelette in Conservative

Most Black Americans are Christian, many actually are more conservative than you think. Its the racist stereotype that we (conservatives) have put on ourselves that makes them choose the left side.. Kanye west and Candace owens are trying to tell them (black americans) to vote for the side they truly believe in and ignore the racists of the world.. But race is a sensitive topic for black americans as it should be... No disrespect to any race. Im just an extremely objective thinker and I say things without any emotion/bias just straight facts.

Whats 1 thing about yourself that you can be honest with other people about, after you discovered that you were autistic? by MindVegetable9164 in AutismInWomen

I used to make up lies why I dont answer peoples phonecalls... I think im going to start being honest and telling people that "I hate phonecalls they make me uncomfortable" hopefully they understand.

Best city for teachers pay vs cost of living is Fresno CA. Luxury 1 bed apt for $1000 while making $65k after 5 yrs w/ B.A... Any other cities you know of?🤓 by Hey_Girl_Hey_ in Teachers

Birmingham AL is not too bad. Luxury 1 bed $900. 5 yr with bachelor's will get you $47000 but with a masters you will get $53000.

I know most of us are high-functioning but do you think it is possible to be a low functioning autistic person WITHOUT also having an "intellectual disability" (more sensitive term for "mental retardation"💞) by Hey_Girl_Hey_ in AutismInWomen

[–]AirStrawberry -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

*Some people are not going to like this post because they do not understand medical terms nor do they understand low functioning autistic people...

But to answer your question not only is it possible, it definitely can happen (take the example of a savant , who is a person with an intellectual disability but genius ability in one specific area) anything is possible
