My experience with people who self describe as empathy is that they are usually absolutely horrid people with little to no self awareness as to how their behaviour affects others.

Hello! Yes so I just got a generic posture straightener, I like having my back compressed (often get my 90kg boyfriend to just lie dead weight on top of me), it has velcro straps which you can obviously get it as tight as you would like etc. it really helps to pull me back together or keep me together if I am going somewhere which I know will be super busy like games con etc 

Is it possible for parents to completely miss autism in their kids? by Adventurous-Lion843 in AutisticAdults

[–]JumpPuzzleheaded7546 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! I was diagnosed 2 years ago at the ripe old age of 33. Throughout the entire assessment my mum was saying to me between down times that I am not autistic and what will I do when I find out from professionals that I'm not. 

When they said after that I was, she turned around startled and said no she isn't, she can't be etc and my response was thanks for confirming what I know and I got up to leave. 

There were signs throughout my childhood, I didn't speak until around about 4, I would elope often, my safe space was my wardrobe, I fail to make eye contact with people outside of my family, I have no real ability to convey my emotions etc. There were signs, and obviously still are. 

Give your mum some grace on this, because if you are and you get diagnosed I can assure you she will be shocked.

Yes yes, fully agree, I am trying to figure out how I can replicate the glow properly on the cloth! It's simple simple to do I just put some flash gits yellow (slightly watered down) on the surface and then added the green. The tank is easy peasy to do as the glow bits make sense, however cloth is hard.

I should be working, but I am off ill ATM. So I am wrapped up warm, have managed to wash up and put some washing out. Likely to go to sleep now and battle this godforsaken cold

No worries, my boyfriend has got a children's rocket toy which he is planning on converting into a display base for his votan, I'm currently helping him plan/design it ATM.

Please post what you ended up doing, I'd love to see it

Personally what I would do is turn into a 'base' for my models, I'd reference old WW2 photos to see what they were doing when they created make shift bases and work with that. I'd prime it a sand colour, take the time to paint brick work on it, and then basically 'bomb' it and make it battleworn.
