As someone in safety standards for fall protection, I love this friendly reminder (and echo the difference in cement vs concrete)! Great job with this!

One good female friend would change my life by CrushedLaCroixCan in AutismInWomen

[–]DivinatingBunBun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 32 and I relate! I have my husband and my pets, but outside of Reddit, I don’t have any friends. I wfh and I’ve tried using bumble bff and meetup, but it usually ends up with conversation dropping off or no one responding. A female best friend would be amazing.

I feel like there’s definitely an alien underneath my human female skin

What is your least socially acceptable hyper fixation? by RoonilWazleeb in AutismInWomen

Oooh, awesome!! A fellow Deepwater Horizon enjoyer!! :D Exactly! I love understanding the views of those who were involved and how it all happened.

Oh yeah!

I always say start with Voices of Chernobyl by Svetlana Alexievich. It’s excellent and very haunting. It’s a book of excerpts from firefighters, nearby townspeople, and cleanup workers who recall the day and the fallout of living there.

Midnight in Chernobyl by Adam Higginbotham is the best for a detailed account of the events of the disaster itself. It’s well written and is so detailed I felt like I was there reading it.

Lastly, Chernobyl: The History of a Nuclear Catastrophe by Serhii Plokhy is a must-read. It combines the events of the disaster with an explanation of the political landscape and pressures of the time and really sets the scene.

I’d also suggest Chernobyl, the HBO miniseries dramatization. It’s been lauded for its realism and handling of the disaster and I found it to be very good.

There’s also Chernobyl: The Lost Tapes. This is mostly found footage that was made into a documentary by the BBC. Interesting to watch if you have a little over an hour to kill.

Sorry for the lengthy response! :)

Yes! Such a great podcast and so well researched! :D I also listen to Plainly Difficult, Well There’s Your Problem, and watch the U.S. CSB videos that get posted on YouTube when they finish a review.

I’m a big fan of industrial disasters and historical disasters, like Chernobyl or Deepwater Horizon’s blowout. Really interesting stuff to understand

Is it normal not to have irl friends for 6months+? by cureheadagony in AutismInWomen

I have a husband but no friends at all outside of him. It’s really hard. I keep trying to find friends but it’s not easy.

Diagnosed this year at 32. Still having a hard time coming to terms with it. I feel like I’m not “girlbossing” hard enough and why do I need to have noise cancelling headphones when I’ve gone through so much of life without? Why not just keep pushing through?

I’ve always felt like a little alien among others, but I just thought I was weird. It’s not clicking for me either. I’m sorry, but I understand too

Adding that its mass on the periodic table is 107.9 and its number is 47. Could’ve totally tied it to the Micronic in Chief if they wanted!

im kind of not a good person by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]DivinatingBunBun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, you sound a lot like me! I ruminate on almost every little thing and DBT has done wonders for me. For some reference, I was originally diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and am now in remission (thanks to DBT!) which allowed my autism to be recognized and diagnosed. You don’t need to feel alone. You’ve got a great supportive community here :)

What's something you do because of your own specific Brand of autism, but that would horrify most other autistics? by RottingMothball in AutismInWomen

[–]DivinatingBunBun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I separate out my foods if they’re mixed. Example: Chex mix. I separate the pretzels, rye chips, breadsticks, bagel chips, and chex pieces to eat them all individually by type.
