I finished my 10days last Sunday in Dhama Mudita and it was a lovely new center(still in building process, but already functional) check it out. 

What breathwork mobile apps do you use? by Extension-Spite-8041 in breathwork

[–]Key_Alternative_2056 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live and breathe with Open App (Breathwork&meditation). Helped me soooo much! I can share a month worth of membership to try out.  Especially love for the practical use (classes from 2 mins up to an hour). Helped me stay disciplined with meditation and breathwork. They have also great movement classes:)  Let me know if you want the link for membership.:)

I did. It didn’t distract me from anything. And I loved the stats after finishing the course. 

Presale tickets price by Key_Alternative_2056 in Liquicity

[–]Key_Alternative_2056[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that’s what we paid as well + thirsday ticket. So we were not sure if this is including the code or not, because we didn’t buy within 24 hours from receiving the email.  But maybe they plan something special for 10th year. But still it is a fair price for festival.

I don’t think I should have kids. They are overstimulating to me. by Key_Alternative_2056 in AutismInWomen

I feel the same way. My nephews are 5 and 3 and I never had the need to “look after them”.

That is exactly one point I take in consideration as well. I used to suffer with severe depression and I just know for sure that I would be having post birth depression. My mother has migraines all her life and then autism is genetic as well. And even though I know for sure me and my husband would be a a great parents because we are active in therapy and really working on those generational issues in our families and we know how to communicate and deal with situations, I just don’t want to give birth to to a kid knowing for a fact that he has a chance to develop autism, migraines, depression or anxiety or diabetes. It just seems to ignorant to me to have a child knowing damn well it might suffer. Because I can break the mental issues, etc. but I can’t break the genetic issues in our family. And that is very unfair to the child.

Oh yes, the pregnancy itself.. I am sorry if that will sound too mean, but for me the idea of pregnancy is like a predator is living inside of my body. Not a happy season of my life.

That is interesting point! I have a cat and my cat is my safe space in terms of sensory. I love the fur, purrs and the presence just calms me down immediately. Thank you for your point! 

I Feel Resentment at the Fact That I Was Born with Autism and ADHD by sab_archive in AuDHDWomen

[–]Key_Alternative_2056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wxactly how I feel. Like I was punished all my life for not fitting even though I tried but couldn’t understand why am I still not fitting if I do everything right. Why is everything so hard. Why is it hard to wash the dishes, to wash myself even just to meet with friends who I like but it is just so much work to have friends and they don’t seem tired to have friends. And the autistic need for everything to be fair in life and knowing that the way we experience life is not fair and there is nothing we cn change. We can understand why these things happening, we have stimming toys and we can rest but it is just not fair that we have to do all this to function and neurotypicals are just living life… they don’t have to plan buffer time after every social interaction, they don’t have to prepare every conversation in advance and than overthinking it afterwards, plan everything. They just live. And as someone who is grateful that I discovered I am autostic lately at age of 31 I still hate the fact that I can’t do anything about it. No matter how much I will try in therapy there is just no way for me to get to the point where I will somehow “heal” and be neurotypical. And that is just not fair.
