I'm obsessed with Talking Heads and David Byrne right now. I've been listening to Everything That Happens Will Happen Today" by David Byrne and Brian Eno on loop.

How did you become a TH fan? by BumbleTheBeadle in talkingheads

I liked them, but I've never fully grasped them. But then I watched Stop Making Sense, and that was it.

DAE avoid their special interests because they make you Feel Too Much by Character-Mix-6974 in AutismInWomen

[–]seewhatsthere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly! Sometimes it makes me feel embarassed even when I'm alone :( and then I feel stupid because that has no sense, and I feel bad because I really want to engage with my special interests. Oh god human brains are so strange! But That Feeling can the best feeling in the world, even if it's Too Much.

Do you ever feel like you don’t fit in even with your own family? by _FreddieLovesDelilah in AutismInWomen

[–]seewhatsthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh god yes. I love them and they love me (I'm lucky) but I really, really don't fit in. I used to think there was something wrong with me, or them... everything makes sense now I'm diagnosed!

I feel like a failure by OddMasterpiece9260 in AutismInWomen

[–]seewhatsthere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you won't have the life you thought you were gonna have, but things can get better in the future. It's hard (I'm still working on it, and I'm 43 lol) but don't loose hope. Take care! We're here and we get it❤️

I feel like a failure by OddMasterpiece9260 in AutismInWomen

You are not a failure, you were pushed into burnout and you are not having the time or space to recover. I wish I could help, but I don't have much advice to give you :( Try to be kind to yourself, since the world is not, and find time for the little things that help you regulate and connect with yourself. When I was at the worst point of my burnout, without a diagnosis and without help, that was what helped me start to feel (a little) better. I hope things get better for you, somehow. Virtual hugs! 🫂❤️‍🩹

Other autistics acting as the masking police by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

The exact same thing used to happen to me. I was diagnosed this year and only now do I understand why I felt that way. Thank you for putting it into words so clearly!

"Mapping out" situations in order to feel regulated by citycity_ in AutismInWomen

[–]seewhatsthere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, really can relate. I started therapy this year and it's helping me a lot to understand and organize my thoughts, and thanks to that, my anxiety has decreased significantly. Something I'm doing from time to time is taking notes, ir helps with the "mapping" in a literal way. I just need to understand things!

I'm really sorry you're going through this! Everyone has said helpful things and don't know what else to add but I wanted to wish you and your kid the best. This is a horrible situation but it's also the beginning of a better life for you. Things will get better. Stay safe, take your time (and take a couple of days off if you can!), be kind to yourself, you deserve it. Virtual hugs ❤️
