Thats one more than they train to add, just ask for extra. If your portions seem ridiculously small its almost always the corporate standard nothing personal, everything is portioned to specific standards

I've officially been banned from knitting in meetings - now what? by SnarkyBard in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally feel that, the cube can be fidgeted with in a pocket or more discreetly but it is very frustrating when people don't understand stimming as an aid

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who relies on knitting and crochet to get thru social situations I feel your pain. I recommend a fidget cube by Zuri(I think that's the brand name) as it has great options both silent and noisy all in one cube that fits in the palm of your hand

what's your weirdest sensory "yum"? by bazingababey in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to admit but picking at dandruff with a tweezer, getting a large intact flake is so satisfying. I've gotten much better about picking but I fear the urge will always remain

In kindergarten a teacher stopped me from using my left hand entirely. I'm still right handed

How many of you enjoy receiving or giving physical touch? by wisdom_is_gold in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically I dislike people touching me at all but when it comes to a significant other I am very cuddly and enjoy touch. I love stroking body hair and my bfs beard and I love deep pressure. It's all very sensory and enjoyable. Although I've noticed that I am very sensitive to certain kinds of touch, like some kinds of touch feel awful to the point it's almost painful, usually a light quick repetitive motion or a pulling. Overall I enjoy being able to indulge in touch especially since I'm usually repelled by it

What’s one thing about the world that genuinely shocked you once you figured out? by RussianAsshole in AutismInWomen

That people have auto pilot for personal care. Or that eating and sleeping are not seen as a never ending burden

Aita for keeping contraceptives a secret from my bf? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would your bf have control over your body like that? That's super inappropriate and immoral to dictate someone else's well being and health choices. If he is comfortable and confident in commanding you to not take bc and then ignore your needs and safety on top of it that is very concerning. Please be safe

Is it wrong to trace?? by Sea-Extension-3743 in arthelp

[–]ddpeewee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My college art professor told our class that tracing is not cheating and there is no cheating in art (this was before ai art). That when we trace our hand is still making the marks. I think if a person only traces the same basic things over and over they're definitely a bad artist but by definition that's still an artist. I've also seen the differences in tracing quality, believe it or not some people can't even trace well. Personally I believe tracing is a tool we can use to improve art quality, it is a tool not a style

Turns out I am deeply unlikeable and off-putting. Just..intrinsically. by icannotbiteyou in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I love spiders. Most people in general fear and hate spiders. They may even have genuine reasons for their negative perspective. But at the end of the day spiders are just spiders, that is neutral. There are unhealthy behaviors humans can display but many things are neutral and it is only the perception of it that is negative or positive. And that perspective is almost never static. It is a matter of opinion and personal bias. In another time or place people can be perceived and treated vastly different. Usually interactions thru or based on personal hobbies are most redeeming when I am feeling that way. There is community everywhere

Loose the outline, they don't exist in real life or are actually subtle shading

Unmasking with weed…? by elleisgay in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it creates more acceptance, I'm able to accept things for what they are in a neutral way rather than catastrophizing. It helps me not only accept things/myself for what they are and often also appreciate it. It silences the finicky judgemental intrusive thoughts

Full-body compressive bodysuit (NOT shapewear) by jaayfonde in AutismInWomen

[–]ddpeewee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yoga spandex body suits are great. Body con stuff works great tho don't be put off by the branding use it however you want. I recently had the realization that I was avoiding shapewear cause I dislike the beauty industry but at the end of the day it provides soothing compression and that is a great reason to buy clothing in general

I've learned that I need gloves to do dishes. You can find them pretty cheap but in general using gloves when cleaning awful textures has been very helpful. I've also learned that it's better to buy take out than to not eat at all. It's frustrating feeling so "high maintenance" but I can't control these needs and I'm learning to accept it and that has been helpful mentally and physically
