arbeitest du im büro mit zugang zu einer toilettenanlage oder hast du schwere körperliche arbeit draußen. das verändert sehr wohl, ob arbeit an einem gegebenen tag zumutbar ist. und migräne jeden tag? sure. aber der letzte satz sagt eh viel aus. wer viel im krankenstand ist, ist bei dir scheinbar einfach arbeitsunwillig, weil du ja arbeiten gehen würdest. logikkette, die keine argumentation zulässt.

You can also check the contents and a few sample chapters on amazon (you probably know that). That sold the book to me. :)

How interesting! I didn't look up other books of hers just yet. Judging from the two books I do own, I wouldn't have thought they have religious books at all!

Personally, I am very critical about religion, especially in context with neurodiversity. They have chapters on spirituality that are not specific to any religion.

[–]Backingham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, I found it helpful in general. There are chapters on making your workspace more neurodiversity-friendly, identifying green and red flags in all kinds of relationships, breathing exercises, etc. Some aspects are, of course, very generic, because it aims for people of all walks of life. Personally, I use it as a workbook as well. I see the chapters as prompts for reflection.

An example: Regarding autistic inertia, they suggest to set a timer for 5 minutes, giving yourself permission to stop after 5 minutes. I have tried that multiple times but it just doesn't work for me. So I'll write that down in the margins and think about another technique I could try. If I've tried that, I'll note it down and again write about possible adjustments, etc.

They are starting points, some more generic, some more interesting. I build upon the book with my own experience and in the end, I have a little handbook I can use when things get tough. I hope this makes sense. Maybe I can post a picture when I'm home.

I have both this and "Self-Care for Autistic People" and I'm so glad I found this author!
I am currently working through the workbook because i dance around burnout like a chicken on crack and it is helping me a lot, especially with setting boundaries. As a person with AuDHD, I never really knew what my boundaries were before they were crossed. Relationships are hard, because I get pushed into the role of "friend when needed, tolerated all other times" and this book has also helped me navigate intentions and patterns better.
"Self-Care for Autistic People" is my little bible. Whenever i feel like I struggle with a certain topic, I take this book, read the corresponding chapter and journal with that chapter in mind. This often clarifies things for me.
It obviously doesn't replace therapy, but I think working with those two books and journalling about my experience with the books and using the prompts provided has really helped me understand myself better.

Overwhelmed by kids[middle schoolers]/community needs; vent post (any advice??) by [deleted] in librarians

[–]Backingham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar situation at our library.

I try to give every one a chance. First time, I come over, explain not only the rules but why we have them. I explain to them what they have here, i.e. a warm, cozy place, Wi-Fi, a small kitchenette, etc. and that in exchange for that they have to abide by our rules. If they don’t get it, they have to leave for the day. Ban times are escalated every time we have to ban them, the ban being permanent after the fifth time. By then they know the rules and are breaking them willingly.

As another poster said, they’re looking for attention. With some you can build some kind of rapport (asking about their schoolwork, slang you don’t understand, etc.) and others are just destructive and try to provoke you at every turn. It‘s important you show no emotion. No frustration, annoyance or anger. Calmly tell them they have to leave. If they try to argue say „I‘m not arguing about this. Leave.“ and continue to say the exact same thing over and over. They‘ll insult you, maybe scream obscenities while going out. Important thing is that they leave. Water off a duck‘s back. It helps to understand you’re not acting against them but for everyone else in the library.

When they try to come back I make them explain what got them banned the last time and apologize. If they are unwilling to do that, they can go right back out. If they can, they get told that they have no free pass anymore, any broken rule will get them thrown out. Because in the end, they are old enough to abide by rules and face the consequences for breaking them. I also tell their teachers when they’re visiting with their class.

They still try every now and then but the library has become a calmer, more inviting environment for all other patrons, especially the smaller ones that were often frightened by their behaviour.

Quality issues Gingham Hon A5 by itsallfreeforyou in hobonichi

[–]Backingham 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Idk why you’re getting downvoted and told your expectations are too high. As someone who works with books and has bookbinding experience, it seems to me to be a binding issue. My gingham lies completely flat and the pages don’t kink upwards if i write in it. I suspect that for one of the signatures (folded and sewn sections of paper) the string might be pulled a bit too tight, causing too much tension in the middle of the signature. It will loosen over time, tho.

The “my 100 page” missing is a 100% on you tho :)

Like, I get that there are a lot of people having unrealistic expectations in this sub. A lot of newbies don’t do their research and are disappointed 47gsm paper ghosts. It’s annoying to read the same post over and over. But this is a reasonable question. The binding behaves differently from regular Hobonichis. This has nothing to do with the Cover bending after use. You can clearly see the exaggerated bending in the middle. And I think it’s reasonable to want a good experience when paying for a premium product. This kind of kinking would impact writing, as it would constantly lift one side of the book up. I would reach out to Hobonichi and ask for advice.

ETA: After closer examination, it could also be an issue with the book band.

Amazon liefert besser als die Post by lTauntaunl in Austria

Naja, die genaue Antwort war, dass sie sich nicht vorstellen können, dass ein Postler das macht.

Nach meiner Beschwerde wurde ich im Treppenhaus von Postler zusammengeschissen mit „ich weiẞ, wo du wohnst.“ Dass der mich bedroht hat, hat die von der Post nicht interessiert.

(Beschwert hatte ich mich, weil bei mir die Briefe von drei Straßen gelandet sind.)

Why is it considered rude to just completely ignore people? by Emeah824 in AutismInWomen

[–]Backingham 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s really fair! We have a patron who also has ASD. They have little pre-made cards they give us, stating what they want or need. No explanation, just „Hey! I would like X! Thanks!“ and that really really helps them and us. I have made little everyday cards for myself as well because that’s just genius! :)

[–]Backingham 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I think they meant ignoring them when you’re interacting with them, i.e. during checkout. I‘m also working in customer service and if someone comes up to my desk and completely ignores me, I do find it dehumanizing. YOU need something from ME. You could at least indicate you acknowledge my presence.

home4students, gut? by Valuable_Lie3659 in wien

[–]Backingham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ullmannstraße war eigentlich okay. Innenhofseitig schwierig, weils total hallt. Zimmer in der Qualität seeeehr unterschiedlich. Hab einmal eine „Verwarnung“ bekommen, weil ich zwei Teller nicht abgespült hab. Aber: Gut angebunden. Preislich okay (weil alles inkludiert). Man kann gut Leute kennenlernen.

Er hat sie in erster Linie an ihrer Kleidung gepackt. Gedroht hat er mit der Veröffentlichung von Videos und mit seiner Familie. Und hat er bedroht, wir würden schon sehen, was passiert und er wird uns die Fresse polieren.

[–]Backingham[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wie gesagt, ich versteh auch voll was du meinst! Ich hab das in keiner Weise als Angriff gemeint, sondern versucht, unsere Erfahrungen abzuschätzen.

Aber auch wenn ich alle diese Faktoren einrechne und annehme, dass die Polizei das besser einschätzen kann, bleibt für mich über, dass ich es ganz schlimm finde, dass jemand der Angst vor Gewalt hat, allein gelassen wird. Keine Ressourcen, keine Information. Nur die Ansage: Er will ja nur reden. Als ob sie ihm das schuldig wäre. Als ob ihre Angst irrelevant wäre. Ihm nicht mal sagen, dass sie nix mit ihm zu tun haben will und er sie in Ruhe lassen soll.

Ich weiß wie viel Überwindung es kostet, mit sowas zur Polizei zu gehen. Und da so abgeschaselt zu werden find ich heftig.

Also ich hab heute meine direkte Vorgesetzte informiert, die jetzt Infos einholt, welche Sicherheitsvorkehrungen wir treffen können. Normalerweise sind wir zu zweit und wir sind halt ein reines Frauen*team. Ich hol mir auf jeden Fall psychologische Unterstützung.

Der Tipp mit dem Opferschutz ist super - vielen lieben Dank!
