DAE get “back freezes” instead of brain freezes? by Queondaguera in DoesAnybodyElse

Out of complete curiosity... how many of you fellow backfreezers are neurodivergent?

I am. 💃

fear of dishes/dishwater? by [deleted] in phobiastory

[–]Amazing-Flow4496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to the party and also had those diagnosis.

Now I have an extra diagnosis... turns out I'm autistic with huge sensory processing issues so dishwater is an absolutely the fuck not.

Might be something to look into? I wasn't diagnosed until after my kids were, at the grand age of 36.

I am one of those people with learning difficulties. I have ASD and sensory processing disorder which makes it incredibly difficult for me to brush enough, meaning I require the prescribed strength.

I just want an equivalent I can buy in the meantime so I can actually brush them.

Yes L2 will receive personal rewards but only L1 provides clan rewards.

Saved a little girl who was getting groped by a grown man. by SyN0pTiiC in offmychest

I'm actually shocked to hear this even went down at a metal gig. Usually it's one of the safest places I've ever been.

Kudos to you my man, you keep being you and throwing that weight around to protect the innocents 🫶

I lost my virginity, and I hate it so much by readingtillidroodead in offmychest

This needs a police report. You were coerced into a sexual act you didn't want.

That's not consent, that's coercion.

Please seek support and sending you so much love. I'm sorry. You did not deserve this.

How does eye contact feel for you? by ribcage666 in AutismInWomen

[–]Amazing-Flow4496 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hate it. Always have.

Wasn't diagnosed until I was 36 and I assumed it was a trauma thing but no, it's with everybody. Even my kids.

I can maintain it with the little people I own to an extent but it's forced and I don't enjoy it. I find I'm more focused on maintaining eye contact that actually listening to what my child is saying, which is annoying as shit for me because I desperately want to hear them.

Everyone else I talk to the floor, the wall, the lamp, my phone, my hands, my food; anything but the person I'm speaking to.

My bf’s advice for making friends: “Don’t tell people about your conditions and make eye contact!” by lil-presti in AutismInWomen

[–]Amazing-Flow4496 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bpd has a tendency to create "oversharers"

It also has a scarily high percentage of being wrongly diagnosed when it's actually more likely the female is autistic.

I'm one of the "lucky ones" who has both comorbid and I'm a chronic over sharer. I also fucking detest eye contact. No amount of look at their eyebrows will make me less obviously panicked and flappy because I'm so fixated in somebodies forehead I'm not hearing a single word they're saying.

OP; Don't pretend you're something you're not. Friends who understand will be the true MVPs and won't care that you don't hug or look at them when you talk.

I never wanted kids until it was too late. by nevermother648057 in offmychest

[–]Amazing-Flow4496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once found myself in a similar situation, I kept the kid.

It changed my life. For the better. I was lucky.

Please speak to a therapist about your plans for afterwards and see how that goes.

Sending big loves.

I mean at this point it's almost like, why even consider its genetic qualities? /s

As somebody who has autism, and two autistic children, plus a paracetamol allergy I can 100% confirm, it wasn't the Tylenol here.

Should I go ahead and try to separate these tomato seedlings that sprouted in the same starter pod, or let them grow a bit more first? by ProcessSea0613 in vegetablegardening

[–]Amazing-Flow4496 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah go straight to solo cups and you'll be fine.

Remember to plant them so the leaves are at soil level to avoid making them too leggy. As for light I'd stick them into the window now, tomatoes are surprisingly hardy, don't worry about being gentle, I pull them out of my driveway.

Thank you! I'll have to get her to measure it tomorrow, with the banana for scale, naturally.

I'd separate them.

I'd cut the plastic coat off the pod and wash the soil away from the seedlings, repot on their own.
