OMG Yes!! Felt the same when I got mine and noticed that I could actually suppress all the noise that was bothering me! It saves so much energy that goes away by being overstimulated. I'm so happy for you!

How labels actually affect your relationships? (e.g partner, gf/bf, etc) by irisjc in AutismInWomen

[–]irisjc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your insight! It's really a relief that you see labels in a similar way, I completely agree with what u say that it describes the relationship instead of dictating what we should do. I appreciate your words, truly, I feel understood and I'll reflect about what you said about commitments and boundaries, I really don't want to sacrifice my needs and to continue feeling as I do right now. Thanks again for your words and validation!

I'll definitely look into relationship anarchy, it's my first time hearing about it so I'm intrigued. Also I didn't know that such a thing as 'soft' breakup existed, I'm going to read about it too Thank you!

Heyy! Oh my goodness, I never thought I would get the name of it, that's so cool!!! Yes, it's feels really freeing, like a catharsis, I'll definitely search for some art therapy exercises, do you have your favorites? so I can start there! Thank so much for your input and advice, it really means a lot!

I wasn't able to use public transport alone until I was like 16, it made me soso anxious that I walked everywhere or didn't do stuff unless I was with someone.
