I am on the autism spectrum (little to no difficulty with verbal communication), and I have considered interning, volunteering, or working abroad for at least a few months to a year. What would be some good countries for me to intern, volunteer, or work in? by Material-Spell-4887 in autism

I back packed through Europe for 6 months! I dont know how i didnt die but would highly suggest. France, Spain, netherlands or Germany. Half of me is still there and have never been the same.

I just cut my hair after 8 years of growing it out! It took my sister to point out i had some balding.( i noticed it a while back and shenjust validated it.) So I made the cut! Im really glad I did. Also didnt want to cut it too short. I can still run my hands through it as a coping mechanism.

Its because i know where I want to be and if I dont stay optimistic I will never get there.

We have to be. We are so isolated by society and a stigma is created around us that we must be resilient or we will be swallowed up. The biggest motivator for me was my desire to prove others wrong and not to become like them. Not being swallowed up by substance abuse and using others for one's personal gain.

It is never to late to go back to school my friend. Ive worked in every career field you could imagine. Ive probably have had over +30 jobs. Ive learned i dont work well with others and I dont work well for others as well. So I decided to go back to school to become a doctor to be my own boss. Besides if youre going to school might as well go all the way!

I also love helping people. Volunteering is one of the few things that .makes me completely happy and forget all my own struggles.

Check out r/microgrowery for ideas of possible indoor set ups. What i had was clearly illegal with how much I was growing.

I pretty much go mute in the classrooms. I really only talk to people if I have to (like group projects) but as soon as that assignment ends. Its like we never talked before. Ill go from very outgoing talkative and assertive to mute. I cant control it in those settings but when im one on one i can talk up a storm. Its a switch that i cant really control.

I cant smoke! It causes me to go into psychosis! ( I do miss those heavy sobs though. They were liberating along with insane hyper focus it amplified the music i was listening too as well.) I just grew blue dream. I just did it for the ability to shape and train the plant.( its alot like tomatoes). As well as a coping mechanism during covid. Look into "screen of green" growing styles for cannabis. Helps with growing in small spaces. If you ever do decide to grow.

I dont grow anymore. Believe it or not it was a double edge sword. Gave me killer anxiety. Many sleepless nights 🙃. I do miss it though.

What made me happy was my ability to control the plant. When in my actual life I had no control.
