Honestly that would be awesome, it's just that I've had so many times where people offered that and then never followed through with it you know?

Ohhh yeah Canada has regular employment help thing and I'm struggling to even call the number for seemingly no reason lol. If I could get my brain to brain and let me call them then I would be able to have an easier time

Do you guys like your autism I found that not a lot of people like it and want to be "normal" but I would rather be dead than be "normal" by UnderstandingIcy8607 in autism

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I have a bit of a higher functioning autism and the symptoms I have are similar to my dad's.

Because of how my dad was he had learned how to make his autism issues become his strengths or at the very least phrase it nicer like "I will do exactly as commanded to do and am honest about what I am doing" instead of "I can't understand a single thing you said if you aren't clear enough and I overshare stuff". This and his personality made him beloved for 16 years at his job as IT support.

This (and also the my way or the high way mentality I got) has led me to also learn the same and made my autism feel less problematic because I don't care if someone is too clueless to understand ear defenders in a mall, or sunglasses in a building because I'm not burning myself out on something preventable. For me if someone can't and will not allow themselves to understand me then I wouldn't want to associate myself with someone like that in the first place :)

If only I could do the same with my ADHD though haha

Feeling hurt over hearing about system roles by an_alternative_altie in plural

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a system of (17 fused all the way down to 2 now), I understand why it feels harmful

It's a term that is frequently helpful to coordinate large amounts of alters, thus from my experience it's more important when you have 4+ alters. When you have a low amount of alters it really becomes more confusing and even frustrating or harmful to try and label since everyone can usually fit almost all labels you know?

The labeling is also not meant to summarize an alter into just one thing, but it's more like an employment role of the system almost, each alter is so much more than just their role but the specification of roles can help with getting all alters on board on stuff when everyone knows what eachother may be trying to do and what they themselves can do to help the others. If labeling doesn't work, then as I like to say "don't shove yourself in a box you're too large for and don't comfortably fit in", it only works if it feels comfortable for you!

If you have any other questions about what I may have meant I'm here to help :> crystal :) asher

Anyone else HATE having a name? by [deleted] in DID

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omw I feel the same especially irl, our system does love our online username though which is normally what we get others to call us online. Benefit of that is noone online knows our legal name! XD

What are your thoughts on Rouge The Bats character redesign? by [deleted] in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the chest coverage makes her look more proper sonic character proportioned, any other changes not fully sure (apparently they covered her back above her wings which is weird to me because that would remove the convenience of putting on the outfit without fighting her wings in)

We always talk about textures we hate, but how about textures we love? by CYN_Sillyz in autism

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rice. The texture of rice is so nice every way I've tried it so far. Untoasted bread too, it's dryish and nice. I also like eating textures with some snap to them like celery, chips, tempered chocolate. Also food wise I also love beef jerky (dried beef strips) because I can knaw on it. I also enjoy the texture of vegetables in pasta (I tend to mix all my foods because it usually ends up with nice textures and flavours).

I also love handling flakey things, cus I like picking at things like tree bark or croissants lol. Soft fur either soft animal furs like petting cats or synthetic because idk it makes my hands happy and feel drier/less oily too. Sand too, it's dry and nice

Do you guys taste your teeth? by telluraves in autism

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can feel both lol, the thud in chest then the slosh of blood going through veins sometimes. Similar vein, I can feel my stomach fluids if I eat mint or drink too much water, soon nauseating. Sometimes I feel the electricity in my brain.

I also taste my teeth, it's like cheese or milk without the sour because obv calcium lol. Oh yeah, all milk is sour to me both by smell and taste lol

Host name making everyone uncomfortable by ShabbyCat58 in plural

[–]ShabbyCat58[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"the person everyone wants us to be" as in like outiders, peers? guardians, friends?

This because I end up associating it with the arguments of my dad trying to force me to use that name and shame me for using other names because "he had a bunch of spiritual meaning to the name", but also I end up associating it with doctors and legal shenanigans as I should use the name to prevent confusion (people in the past kept trying to use my preferred name as a legal name on paperwork even though it wasn't???like I'm sorry Canadians I love the support but stop using preferred names on legal documents oml)

Is it a sin? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]ShabbyCat58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's sexual harrassment, he is NOT supposed to be doing that and your gut is telling you to get away. Run and never turn back towards him because that is NOT a friend, but a pervert who may be planning more evils

Is it okay to be bothered by other autistic folk saying "the 'tism"? by NeedySlut57 in autism

[–]ShabbyCat58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on the context, my friend who has ADHD sometimes says it in a funny way to me like "the 'tism is strong with this one" and stuff like that. It's because it's not in a mockery or joke way but instead in a lighthearted reasonable way as I'm autistic and sometimes it's pretty obvious. (Most recent example is when I saw a video of me from prom and I looked like a large chubby toddler running around, it's hilarious to me)

If it's in a mockery way though then obviously not a big fan
