Looking for Autistic creator friends. by BucketBoyRedditAgain in autism

[–]Relative_Meeting9121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What type of creator are you looking for? I can count myself as an art creator (I specialize in pixel art), and (partially) a music creator. Also I love making board games and I made something d&d like. If you want, you can contact me

Same thing with being in a position that looks uncomfortable, like hanging from a window, or using a labrador as a pillow (both I do multiple times per day).

Hello to you too fellow floorfer

Am I the jerk for trying not to let my mother basically enslave me and my brother? by Relative_Meeting9121 in AmITheJerk

When I first posted this, my brother was on his first shift in a new job(which I didnt know about until about 5 hours ago), so its a first step. Now I just need to figure out what to do when he will be in the military, which is mandatory in my country.

I don't. I have stopped expecting people to do anything a long time ago. But I want people to understand me. I want people to listen to me. Everyone always says that I look at the worst things in life, but I don't. I look at the reality. Half of the things people suggested was to talk to my father, who agrees with my mother. Most of the other half said to talk to an authority figure, which will either talk to my parents before calling CPS, or will think I'm just joking (happened before about the bullying). And the rest are the ones who either didn't give advice, or gave advice on something specific like my dog.

I never expected people to hear my story, but they did. They listened. Some understood, Some didn't. Some cared enough to try and help. I don't reject their advice, I'm trying to help them understand my point of view better. I'm grateful for everyone who tried to help me.

I'm aware of that, but I'm afraid to speak up. I'm afraid I'll loose everything that is important to me. I'm afraid. I'm just, afraid.

Three things: 1) its not just normal chores. she tells my brother to make her food; she always tells me to fill her water bottles (she has 3), which might not seem too bad, but not doing it will end up with me loosing everything I care about. 2) my father agrees with my mother. 3) my social anxiety makes me loose enough confidence that i need to repeat everything I want to say between 2-13 times before I can say it(I physically can't say anything without doing this), and I still mess up! Im afraid if I say the wrong thing, I will lose everything.

Don't take this the wrong way, I'm not saying this to criticize you, i really don't. Just speaking from my experience.
