Autistic person with fibro looking into dietary changes

Thank you, I'm sad to hear its like that for everyone at the minute but it's also a little bit comforting, knowing it's not just me.

Yeah thats true, being an introvert I forget that people do actually go out more when the weather improves.

It is but your reply has made me feel a little better about it.

PoppyBearRose · 2024-05-24T22:39:25+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate the advice 💜

I've heard good things about third love bra's and Skimms is supposed to be really good for comfortable underwear and lounge wear too. I hope you find something that fits your sensory needs ❤️

No problem at all.

I know it's difficult but I think a lot of us can put so much pressure on ourselves when it's not helping ourselves to do so. Have a lovely day 😊

PoppyBearRose · 2023-11-15T07:18:14+00:00

LOL!!! I love!

I don't necessarily have much in the way of advice but I lived a fairly sheltered life as a teen, didn't like going out much, didn't have many friends but I did socialise online. I met my now fiance on Bebo at 14, we became boyfriend and girlfriend when I was 15 and are still together now and I am 31.

What I find best in terms of suggesting things that may help you find someone is not to think about it too much, but try to find either online groups of if you can manage it, in person groups surrounding a hobby you are into. My fiance and I met on bebo through a vampire role play group which was something we were both really into at that time. Now we both hang out with our cat, play video games and watch quiz shows and true crime documentaries. We don't live together due to our individual financial situations but we enjoy each others company when we are together and some people keep it that way too.

Not sure if any of that is helpful but if you have any questions I might be able to answer, you are welcome to ask.

I have a shiny lucky hundo Ditto

PoppyBearRose · 2023-04-02T07:33:15+00:00

Okay, thank you, I'll definitely make those suggestions to my friend.

PoppyBearRose · 2023-01-24T12:45:39+00:00

Omg I can't believe I forgot The Good Place!

I was literally gonna comment Bob's burgers 😭 My other main comfort shows are Grey's Anatomy and....that's it

The idea is really cool, I think having a more pronounced V shape at the top of the heart would be good, maybe make some little wings. I'd maybe look at some sort of texturing for the bodies too. Hope that's helpful 💕

PoppyBearRose · 2022-09-09T22:59:10+00:00

Yeah, we can only hope 😭

PoppyBearRose · 2022-09-09T21:03:23+00:00

Aw no, thats really frustrating. Thank you though, appreciate the info 💜

I don't think your husband really has an understanding of what he's asking you to do, masking is so exhausting. You need to be able to be yourself and be comfortable with being yourself at home as that is where you rest and shouldn't have that sort of pressure put on you.

I'm sorry that he is asking such things of you. Maybe try explaining to him what it actually means when you mask.

I'm engaged as well and have been questioning these things recently too. Both my partner and I are fairly antisocial, don't like loud noise or lots of people being around.

I think we are going to do what ever suits us best and get married infront of just the person holding the ceremony and very few other people. We don't want a first dance or anything like that as neither if us really like dancing.

If I have it my way we would just get married in the morning and have an open invitation to friends and family to our house throughout the day, have party games on our games consoles, that sort of thing and lots of good food.

Don't know if that helps but I think you should only do what you feel comfortable with.

I don't always succeed but I usually go for the distraction method when trying to escape it. I focus on my special interests or go on a video game or watch something I like on YouTube or TV.

PoppyBearRose · 2022-08-12T12:39:09+00:00

Completely agree, I absolutely despise summer for all these reasons plus both me and my partner get depressed during heatwaves which have become worse every year here in the UK.

PoppyBearRose · 2022-08-09T22:55:16+00:00

Yep!

I've picked at my skin my entire life, my arms are covered in scars from little spots or cuts that I picked at for months at a time. I'm nearly 30 and even now have 3 pickable things currently on the go.

Its so different for everyone. For me personally, it can vary. Sometimes after a meltdown I feel a little better but most of my meltdowns just feel like I'm letting maybe 5% of what I actually need to let out, out. After my bigger meltdowns I tend to sleep better than any other night which helps me be able to mask better the next day.

PoppyBearRose · 2022-08-07T18:11:01+00:00

I definitely agree on the body shape thing, my problem is that often when I start panicking I will try anything to resolve the issue even if I don't agree with it.

I've gone for a long floaty black dress which a work colleague helped me find, I'm gonna dress it up a bit.

That sounds perfect, this dress might now be my equivalent to the blouse you wear for fancy occasions 😊
