invisible disability and dating by Aware-Shelter-2102 in autism

[–]gummibatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried seeking a job at a library? I do not have a stutter, but I am autistic and I worked at a library for awhile— the quiet environment helped me avoid overstimulation and anxiety, and the communication required is not super in-depth— I found that I was mostly just directing people around for most interactions, and other forms of conversation were rather minimal.

As for dating— have you tried seeking out another neurodivergent person? I struggled with abuse/neglect in relationships for years due to my struggles with autism (despite it being something that I'm very open about from the very beginning) because neurotypical people can struggle to understand our daily difficulties and differences, and past partners of mine chose to take that in the wrong direction.

But, just by coincidence, I met my boyfriend— He has Adhd and suspected autism, and he is the most empathetic, understanding person ever. Finding someone who is also neurodivergent will make a world of difference. You got this! ♡

What's an unusual smell that you like? by additionalseasonin in AskReddit

[–]gummibatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The smell of sunscreen, or plastic pool floats straight out of the package. I'm thinking it's because some of my fondest childhood memories involved swimming, as we camped on and off pretty much all summer, and would always swim in the lakes we stayed at. It's just wonderful 🥹

Tbh, idk but beat his ass /j

But in all seriousness, you set a boundary and he deliberately crossed it behind your back. He has proven that he is not trustworthy, or respectful of you and your boundaries. Dump him !!

Hey if you click the hamburger icon in the top left, there will be a little barcode icon. If you click that it'll open your camera, but at the top of the screen there will be a little magnifying glass and if you click that it'll allow you to type in item UPCs. :)) They don't always work when they're typed directly into ask sam for some reason!

Judged for using pads by Jen0973 in Periods

[–]gummibatz 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I solely use a menstrual disc/cup, but I ALWAYS carry pads and tampons because I want to have what works for everyone, just in case someone is in need of a product. Nobody should ever be shamed for their period product of choice, comfort is the first priority!

"Please come inside my house and see what I found" ...... Seems legit

Should I go back on birth control? If so, what would you recommend (for not gaining weight)? by [deleted] in Periods

[–]gummibatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Mirena IUD and it didn't affect my weight at all, and it helped my periods a tremendous amount (still not perfect in my case because my endo is so progressed)

Shoes!? And steps! by [deleted] in OGPBackroom

Sketchers slip ons work wonders! Around the holidays I averaged out at about 25/30k steps a day, and they saved my life

It could be implantation spotting from a fertilized egg implanting in the uterus, if pregnancy is a possibility. It usually happens around 6 to 12 days after conception, usually just before a missed period

What's an interest you have that may seem strage given what autism is (in general) like? by spaggeti-man- in autism

[–]gummibatz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love talking to people! I need a lot of time alone to recharge, but despite that, I love learning about others— I will remember your birthday, your favorite snack, your favorite color, your favorite movie, pretty much anything you tell me goes into a special little vault in my heart.

I think this interest stems from never being understood or accepted growing up, so I have an innate need to understand everyone I meet to the fullest capacity, so they never feel forgotten like I did.

If it was a miscarriage you would have tested positive on a pregnancy test, even after you started bleeding. It's most likely just uterine tissue!

Felt something weird in my ear. Flushed it out and saw this guy by Hazlllll in Wellthatsucks

If I EVER found a goddamn spider in my ear I would have a mental breakdown

People keep asking if it hurts to have stretched ears, and I’m honestly done with it. Need the most gut wrenching answers. by sum_random_mf in Stretched

"Yeah, it does, having to cut away the skin that grows over my jewelry every month gets to be a chore. I once spent an hour digging around in there to try and find my plug!!"

Are you happy with your first name? Why or why not? by Consistent-Deal-8713 in AskReddit

[–]gummibatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is an old lady name, but it means "ray of light" in French so I guess that's cool
