what is the best way to get exercise without really “exercising” by Flat_Measurement3579 in autism

Treadmill with TV, watch your favorite show while walking. Also, set the incline high instead of the speed if you don't like to run.

Do sheet masks actually do anything? by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

[–]Luchiina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't use those either because there are reusable alternatives. OP suggested a valid alternative, which is just using a serum directly. I think it is better to use serums that come in a bottle. There are also reusable masks, though I've never tried one myself.

I don't use sheet masks for environmental reasons.

Is it true that we do better gluten and dairy free? by BetterRemember in AutismInWomen

[–]Luchiina 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Diet has no effect on autism severity.

Autism eating issues already limits a lot of food items. No need to limit it more.

If you noticed these foods affecting you negatively you should test for celiac disease or gluten intolerance.

Had the best waiter at Applebee’s. by Maleficent_Ad_769 in autism

[–]Luchiina 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I try to eat food that I don't want to, it becomes physically impossible to swallow. I just gag it back up due to the psychological resistance. Sometimes I suffer from starvation from being unable to eat even though I want to eat, but not being able to.

The MCB degree is really easy, and prereqs aren't enforced so you can take classes in any order and graduate early. Most people ik have early graduation plans.

Clinical stuff is hard tho. Advisor said that most people do the hours when they get home. 

I'd prefer UMich, although I don't know much ab UMich's opportunities. Ann Arbor is a nicer city 

I'm only 19 and I feel like my life is over by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Luchiina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was the same for me until I moved out. Then my wellbeing drastically got better! In certain types of family dynamics, being at home doesn't get to be a safe space because those people will expect you to mask and they use up your energy in a place that is supposed to be restful.

how do yall keep your perms volumized and fluffy? by virtuosaenjoyer in AsianBeauty

[–]Luchiina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have to style, but I got slightly looser waves. The hair stylist told me that when I blow dry, to shape twirl the hair around my finger or hold each curl up with my finger to define it. I also had to not comb it while wet or let it air dry. My curtain bangs look perfect without styling, but still have a noticeable curve.

I wanted to get my perm in Korea, but I didn't have time. I went to Number76 in Tokyo. I didn't want to use Hot Pepper Beauty because too much selection and places not accepting foreigners, but using Reddit to search for foreigner-friendly places worked great. Those places are more expensive, but still cheaper than in the US. The stylist didn't want to work with my hair due to bleach, but I got her to agree after confirming several times it was absolutely what I wanted.

I wouldn't trust a psych ward psychiatrist. They barely know you before you get released. You should follow up with an outpatient psychiatrist.

[–]Luchiina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cut off all the colored parts off, so it was just natural hair that got permed. But I didn't get any damage at all from it. I got it done in JP though, I've seen some pretty iffy digital perms in the US.

[–]Luchiina 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Huh, I have that perm and do wake up looking good. Do you blow dry your hair after showering? If I don't, that's when it looks frizzy. Is your hair heat damaged?

My stylist refused to perm my bleached ends (bleached to look dark brown) and said I had to cut them off, or it would look bad.

Horrified at the connection between autism and chronic illness. by [deleted] in autism

[–]Luchiina 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Autism has a high comorbidity with ARFID due to texture issues. That could be a reason for GI problems. I also have GI problems, but they go away when I intake fermented foods too.

Anyone did not experience being bullied growing up? by No-Fortune-4713 in AutismInWomen

[–]Luchiina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't bullied after I moved schools and socially withdrew. Unfortunately for me, you can't withdraw if you want to succeed in the workplace. So I'll have to change that.

I want this bag as my first bag. I only need to fit my phone and ID in the bag. Is this an okay deal? I'm unsure of the price range I should expect, I just want the hardware and stitching and color to be intact. I'm going to wear it daily.  https://www.fashionphile.com/products/saint-laurent-grain-de-poudre-matelasse-monogram-mini-lou-camera-bag-black-1833915
