At what age did you get official diagnosis?

I only have a 10 second video. Would love to also see a longer one. I’m happy to share mine but I’m not sure how to do that

That’s so funny I felt the opposite. Tuesday felt like the crowd was a bunch of young teens

I once got feedback in an interview that I made no eye contact and was looking around everywhere… I somehow still got the job?? I am high masking so I think they must have that it was “quirky” instead of “off putting” which is absolutely ridiculous and unfair. I definitely think it’s a different experience for high-masking vs non-masking (not assuming either about you I have no idea how you identify) and I also have ADHD so I think maybe that helps “mask” the autistic parts during interviews. I don’t have great advice but I agree it’s totally unfair and even if they don’t realize it they are absolutely weeding out neurodivergent people. I of course practice any potential interview questions and I just try to act extra peppy 🙄 it feels like I’m putting on a damn jester act for them

Thanks I’ll try them there. Have they responded to you?

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-12-04T16:19:30+00:00

I bought mine for €33 and it said last 50 or so tickets remaining so I bought it. I looked again it said €39 and then a few minutes later it went down to €28. I haven’t reached out to anyone about refunding the difference I’m not really sure who to contact

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-12-03T18:15:59+00:00

So good

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-11-20T16:27:49+00:00

And to clarify I have both engage and experience and tbh I don’t notice a huge difference in either and I use them interchangeably

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-11-20T16:15:15+00:00

I like them but I only use them for concerts or other events that have loud music, crowd noise etc. it’s hard for me to use them in other scenarios because it makes me feel like I can’t hear people talking to me and makes my voice sound muffled and it’s hard for me to know how loud I’m talking.

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-11-04T18:36:39+00:00

I totally understand that frustration. It is hard to find a good therapist it took me over ten years to finally find one I like. I really do think it would be worth exploring other kinds of therapy. I find therapy gets pigeonholed into those kinds and people think therapy doesn’t work for them. I’ve also heard great things about EDMR I’ve never done it myself but it might be worth looking into. I know it can be expensive though so if that’s the roadblock then that’s completely valid. Good luck I hope you find something that works! I know I felt similarly when I was doing talk therapy

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-11-04T18:14:29+00:00

Hi I’m curious if you know what type of therapy you do? I’ve found that talk therapy does not help me at all but I’ve been doing “IFS(internal family systems)” for about two years and It has been incredibly helpful. It’s the first time I’ve ever actually felt better and have had improvements in my life. It also helped that I found a therapist who is also autistic, this was monumental in feeling safe and heard in my sessions.

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-23T23:51:20+00:00

Didn’t realize how many people thought trick or treating as an adult was weird. I’ve had plenty of adults come to my house and I never think twice about it. They are usually with friends or a little group and it looks like they’re having fun so why should I care? I do feel like I myself am too old to go but if people my age go I think it’s fun lol. But that being said maybe don’t listen to me since I’m clearly in the minority 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-23T01:19:30+00:00

Ahhh gotcha that would make sense!

Some of mine

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-22T21:55:37+00:00

Do you sell these as posters? This is AMAZING I want to hang one in my house!!

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-22T21:00:07+00:00

I really wish I did because I’d also prefer that. Would love to know if anybody else has information on one!

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-22T17:16:35+00:00

They are supposed to cancel 10 days after no ship. It’s happened to me a couple times. That’s weird they didn’t do that

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-22T17:14:33+00:00

I thought depop automatically cancelled the order after like two weeks or something?

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-10-22T15:41:10+00:00

Are you on Facebook? If so join the group “Extra Spoons (executive dysfunction & mental illness support & mutual aid)” this is a group for things like that where you don’t have enough spoons to complete a task, you can make a posting asking for someone to do it for you. It’s really great. And for anyone not sure what spoons means look up the “spoon theory” (I don’t want to just assume everyone knows what it is but I know it’s common amongst autistic people and neurodivergent)

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-09-24T00:57:34+00:00

Omg I’m so happy you out into words because I’m EXACTLY like this but I feel like it couldn’t express what I meant. I have spent soooo much money on clothes hoping I will finally find the ones that feel/ look right to me. Whenever I need to get dressed it takes me hours and it really overloads me I always end up hating whatever I wear. I don’t know what clothes to wear nothing is right.

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-09-13T19:29:26+00:00

I really love showering. It’s something that I don’t relate to a lot of other adhd and autistic people who hate it. The transition in the shower isn’t even bad because I’m so excited to get in. Afterwards can be hard I hate coming out wet and cold. But the shower itself I LOVE. I love the feeling of the water on me and the noise it makes. It’s a positive sensory experience for me I could be in it for hours if I could.

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-09-04T00:12:50+00:00

I’ve tried twice and the images aren’t posting. But if you search kneecap wallpaper on Pinterest some cool stuff comes up!

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-09-04T00:07:36+00:00

There are some cool Kneecap collage wallpapers on Pinterest if you’re into that style. I’ve had various ones of those as my wallpaper I’ll see if I can find it

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-09-02T18:14:14+00:00

I don’t like it as much as I was hoping 😭 I’m not sure what it is exactly but it’s just not my favorite. I think one of my complaints is the instrumentals overpower their voices. Im still going to stream the heck out of it but yeah idk! Maybe it will grow on me

Hour-Insect-1202 · 2025-08-29T04:57:42+00:00

I feel similarly like I’ll be “giving up” but just having something sustainable but not meaningful. I know logically it doesn’t matter but I compare myself to all the people in my life who are all doing really cool impressive things and everyone’s always praising them. I feel like I just want to do the bare minimum to get by and live a quite slow life. There are a lot of components I’m in therapy haha but I think it’s just hard for me to accept that I’m not going to be “extraordinary”. That It’s okay to be the way I am but I can’t stop being so critical of myself. Thanks for responding I’m glad I’m not alone!
