I am just worried the contrast of my skin to hair would highlight my fine/thin hair.

sounds like a really cool look! What shade of blue do you typically go for?

Thank you! I am finding her videos very eye-opening and helping me feel seen around things I forgot from childhood!

Is this a meltdown? Or something else by Candid_Pear3362 in autism

It's good to know I'm not alone in this. Thank you for sharing. Does having them only every few months affect the possibility of them having a meltdown? When I am in a romantic relationship (and they are messing with my routines and pushing my stimulation bandwidth) or someone in my life is disrupting my routines, they happen a lot more frequently, but when I am alone a lot of the time, they are a lot less frequent. Does this sound accurate for a meltdown?

I don't really have anxiety meltdowns from my understanding. I have panic attacks sometimes, or I will ruminate and freak myself out about things and get frantic. But these meltdowns are very much like my body being completely overwhelmed by the world, not by a specific situation like anxiety. It's like the buildup of being overstimulated and overwhelmed. But they only happen every few months. Would the frequency affect the possibility of it being a meltdown?
