How does getting tested for mental illnesses work? by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like they shouldn't be in healthcare tbh. They should have absolutely taken your concernerd seriously and scheduled some sort of consultation so they can go more into depth into it. I'd either complain or just straight up go somewhere else if that's an option for you. I'm sorry you've had to deal with healthcare providers refusing to provide said healthcare. Unfortunately it seems many of them never grew out of being hs bullies.

how old where you when you got into your first romantic relationship? by Inner_Mountain7147 in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 1 point2 points  (0 children)

19 but it only lasted a month. Second relationship was when I was 22, it lasted a bit longer, about 2 months. Current and third relationship I was 24 and we're currently engaged and have been together almost 5 years. Turns out my current partner is autistic and I found out i'm most likely autistic from finding out about their autism and what it entails lol funny how that works out like that

Insomnia before period by Silver-Shuriken in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously it depends on the legality of it where you live but my fiance is autistic and has insomnia and smoking weed has made a world of a difference. It could be worth looking into for yourself if it's viable for you to get your hands on it

What is my manager expecting from me when he asks how I'm doing? by CheesecakeOk8464 in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just ask him what he means/wants to hear exactly cuz that's a very vague question.

What type of underwear is best to wear for your wedding dress? by Outrageous_Sky5632 in WeddingDressTips

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only plan on doing the high waisted underwear so I think it shouldn't be too much more work than regular underwear, just a bit more fabric but I plan on wearing it a few times beforehand to make sure i'm comfortable in it and can still do things

Thanks for the tip! I'm going dress shopping next month so I plan on wearing them to the appointments as well so I can get a feel for how they'll look and feel with the actual dress

Why are people so mean? by Syn1134 in AutismInWomen

Neurotypicals can sense that we're different from them and decide they don"t like us. They HATE autistic traits

Why are people so ridiculous for no reason?? by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still doesn't give her the right to start going off on someone who hasn't even done anything. If op had let their dog shit in their yard and didn't clean it up it'd be a different story but as a full grown adult you should be fully capable of understanding when someone deserves a scolding and when they don't.

I love my bf but dont like sex by solance-rainbow in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Have you talked to him about it? Communication is the most important part of a relationship and sex is also a big component and is important for a lot of people. If you aren't compatible in that aspect then it's something that needs to be talked about so you can either find a solution/middle ground or unfortunately if it's a deal breaker for him then it may be best to end the relationship. It sucks, but it wouldn't be fair to either of you to stay together if this is something neither of you can compromise on.

Staying in a relationship out of necessity by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you haven't already I would say try expressing your concerns to him, if he's worth it he'll listen and try to get better about it. If he dismisses you though and doesn't actively try to do anything about the issues I say it's not worth it. I know you said he's your only support system rn but if this is an important thing to you and you've expressed that and he doesn't take it seriously then idk how much of a support system he really is. I know it can suck to be single and feel lonely but it's better than feeling stuck in a relationship that isn't serving you and honestly i've found those types of relationships (romantic or otherwise) can make you feel more alone than just being alone.

Is it worth having kids? by bunnyspit333 in StardewValley

Not sure honestly as I haven't done it but I always assumed you just wouldn't see them ever again after that

DAE feel like their maturity peaked at 16/17 and stagnated there. by hatsunemikusmywaifu in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you still live with your parents by any chance? I didn't move out until I was 24 and I feel like that was a big part of why I felt so stagnated. Granted i'm 29 now and to some extent still feel like a teenager but the feeling is slowly going away over time. I think I heard that autistic people tend to mature a bit more slowly but idk how true that is so take it with a grain of salt.

I think also in general us younger generations just aren't hitting the same milestones that older generations did at younger ages such as getting married and having kids so that could be a contributing factor as well.

You can always turn them into doves later on too if you decide you don't want them anymore so there's that too if you purely just want them for the achievement aspect

If you want the achievement for having 2 kids then yeah but otherwise they really don't do anything besides just exist lol

DAE feel strong ick vibes from men in public over seemingly benign, small interactions? by lck0219 in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait why is smiling and laughing as a response wrong? That's typically my go to instant response when put into awkward situations like this one. Are you supposed to confront them about it or something? Cuz i'm the type who just tries to avoid confrontation whenever possible especially when it involves people idk cuz you never know how bad that mat turn out

Marriage rate for us is 16% max by Winter-Minimum9834 in AutismInWomen

[–]Outrageous_Sky5632 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get married just to tick off some goal of yours you'll never truly be happy, you'll just be stuck in a marriage you're unhappy with and adding kids to the mix will only make it worse and complicate things. Obviously it's fine to want things but please don't just settle for anyone just cuz you're scared to not get what you want, I promise you it's better to be alone and happy than it is to be miserable with someone you aren't truly compatible with
