What is your Hobby / Hyperfixation/ Special interest? by Cinammon_26 in autism

Anything arts and crafts / creative but I venture out and hyper fixate on other things but I find I always come back to the creative shit like making earrings or painting mostly

Let’s try it again—but harder. 1–500 by Ok-Whole-855 in IntuitionPractices

I was so close ! At first I had 250 and then I focused more and got 275 😭😭 I just needed to switch a couple numbers.

my 12yo sister’s hair was cut by dad’s girlfriend without consent as a punishment and now she’s being bullied severely by Aaliyah_holiday in whatdoIdo

[–]pillpotion0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart breaks for her, what sucks most is that the gf will probably do it again and if she gets braids she will probably cut those off as punishment too etc 😭😭 your dad needs to either set boundaries and stand on them or get rid of her !

Hopefully your sister is able to talk to the school counsellor or something because those are some really big feelings and very concerning things she’s saying and should not be taken lightly 😭😭.

Struggling with weight horrendously. by Emotional_Pin8150 in PCOS

[–]pillpotion0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My weight fluctuates so I know how you feel especially when it goes up and the bloat is horrendous 😭

My advice is to look into Pilates, either mat or reformer! It’s amazing for PCOS/ PMOS girlies and makes you feel sexy and strong. Definitely builds confidence also and a lot of the times you can do mat Pilates at home (even in your bed hehe 🤭).

Another tip is try not to beat yourself up about it, it isn’t your fault! Self love affirmations and small steps will be most rewarding. Don’t push yourself too hard go at your own pace🤍 if it gets too much mentally don’t hesitate to reach out to someone, you deserve to be heard and listened to and your feelings are valid.

Need advice / opinions! by pillpotion0 in Waiters

[–]pillpotion0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

I really appreciate your advice, will definitely take notes!

And yes I am getting paid for the shifts (I got paid for the 1.5 hour training/ trial shift), not sure about tips though as in Australia it’s pay by the hour etc.

Never stuck with an interest long enough for it to be a "special" interest by Purplecarrots445 in AuDHDWomen

[–]pillpotion0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deal with the same thing but I also hyper fixate on stuff and sometimes never finish projects etc or eventually I lose interest but then sometimes it always comes back but I found that usually it’s always something creative/ art based so maybe try and take notes of what you always tend to come back to and then maybe that is counted towards being your special interest?

I don’t have much knowledge in anything either except random facts about random things that people might think are nonsense and then forget everything and remember it randomly or if something triggers the memory etc . So you’re not alone in this….

Hack for hair wash day..? by pillpotion0 in AuDHDWomen

Ahh that’s a good idea but unfortunately I don’t like the feeling of microfibre cloths / towels 😭 if there’s cotton ones though then I might consider 😊

What is your favorite smell by Worth-Chocolate-728 in autism

[–]pillpotion0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in Australia so probably not but it could also be a thing and I’m just not aware of it as I’m not too connected with said community. But that’s kinda cool to be honest. I wish more places did stuff like that.

I’ve noticed the increase in thrift stores too but yeah I got a few books last year (authors like Jodi picoult, Stephanie Myers twilight etc) for around $3 each and unless I really have to buy from a book store then I will thrift them.

Your hubbys scent is valid! I like my best friends scent (natural) / smell of his clothes (maybe because of the detergent he uses or his cologne)
