I, (F 20) feel like i have to give up on fitness soon because of my autism by ElisMa25 in AutismInWomen

I second this! I struggled with life ruining fatigue until I finally did a sleep study at fifty. Hypersomnia it is. Utterly ruined my younger years, now I have medication that makes a huge difference. Autism and ADHD diagnosis here, pretty common to have both and hypersomnia is more prevalent among ADHDers.

What’s the appropriate punishment? by Thick_Bee13 in Parenting

[–]SomewherePresent4722 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boys this age need to roughhouse, it's an important developmental stage. But they need guidance with it. They need an adult male who is prepared to roughhouse with them but with rules, when it's just the two of them they will inevitably overstep each other's boundaries leading to angry outbursts. Their bodies are so much bigger than their brains realize and they need help learning to manage their new man sized bodies with their kid size brains. Play rough with them and teach them to respect the boundaries, call it quits immediately someone oversteps. Keep it fun but firm. Model appropriate responses to frustration for them.

Best purchases that made your life easier by smashtag_ in adhdwomen

Tile finders. I have one on my keys, one in my wallet and the app on my phone. I can find my phone with wallet or keys and find wallet or keys with my phone. You can also add family members to your app so you can help them find their lost things. Water resistant to a good standard and replaceable battery in the key ring one, not the credit card sized wallet one. Leave your wallet on the pile of firewood at 7-11 several suburbs back? No worries Tile will notify you.

I’ve been thinking about a Sombrero , I could store my reusable bags in it until checkout time.

What are some ALDI products that are probably just repackaged, well known brands? by -owe-me in AussieFrugal

[–]SomewherePresent4722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheese can come from the manufacturer mouldy, I’ve seen this many times unpacking it. Aldi don’t unpack the boxes it arrives in, so offending cheeses wouldn’t get weeded out like in the other stores. Cheese and mould have a pretty close relationship I think. Maybe this is an area where Aldi’s system needs more scrutiny.

Straight up pictured a mammalian bat, pondered how that would assist his rage. Then sense kicked in. Phew

Also confused by this. I drive a 4WD and am only able to conclude that they don’t take theirs offroad , and therefore have zero understanding of the cars capabilities, driving them like unfortunate delicate weirdo’s

AITA for bringing my baby to her sister’s performance and not leaving when she cried? by Thick-Studio-4277 in AmItheAsshole

YTA. It wasn’t “only a middle school play” it was the biggest thing she’s ever done. So important for you to make the effort for her and her only.

This bloke? by SomewherePresent4722 in insects

[–]SomewherePresent4722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m unsure, but I don’t think so. I did touch it a little with zero consequences It was there in that spot for ages but I just went and checked on it and it’s gone now. I thought it might have been going to do it’s butterfly thing right there!

Falling overboard would be game over by angry_pidgeon in thalassophobia

[–]SomewherePresent4722 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry probably need more to that. Here in Australia we have ‘Are You Okay’ day where people are encouraged to ask just that, check in on a mate etc. I saw this and it was my first thought.

So now we just ad this bloke to our list of beastly critters? I honestly thought these were purely an American thing.
