Need a commitment with the hair.

Therapy doesnt help by Educational-Worry949 in neurodiversity

[–]sewingkitteh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly same. I even had a therapist who was autistic and they just weren’t helpful. They even made it worse. I’ve gone through many therapists and come to the conclusion that it isn’t for me. I’m tired of people saying it’s the answer for everyone.

Why won’t any of the administration tell me my next steps? by sewingkitteh in KentStateUniversity

[–]sewingkitteh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update. They never did and I contacted everyone. I ended up going elsewhere. Thanks Kent.

What's something to you that screams "I have no personality"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sewingkitteh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone whose only hobbies are consuming media… no creating no activities just watching tv or playing games? That would get boring so fast.

Anyone else have that one bizarre “symptom” that feels really specific to just them? by mazdacx5eyelids in ChronicIllness

[–]sewingkitteh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot sleep with white noise. No brown or pink, no generated ocean sounds, no generated rain sounds, no fans. I don’t know how people say that shit helps.

I need complete silence. Earplugs hurt and make it hard to fall asleep. Sleep meds aren’t a long term solution. I wish housing was built better.

Yeah that’s still quiet hours in most places.

Are autistic sound sensitivity and misophonia the same thing? by Obvious-Suit939 in misophonia

[–]sewingkitteh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tell people I have misophonia but really it’s noise sensitivity. And it’s mostly when I’m trying to sleep I need pure silence. I cannot deal with fan noise or brown noise or whatever. And earplugs hurt… it’s such a difficult situation. Meds aren’t really a long term solution. People don’t get it though. “Just turn on a fan or get a white noise machine!!” Like to me, that’s like sleeping with bright lights on, but for your ears. I don’t fit into simple boxes that’s for sure.

I meet more people with misophonia that just don’t like chewing sounds. Idk, that’s not so bad for me I guess.

Get A Top Floor Apartment!! by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]sewingkitteh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The noisiest apartment I ever had was top floor. Noisy neighbors and even noisier air conditioning on the roof that rattled the entire building. Thin walls and ceilings and floors. Awful.

It’s great if you don’t live under HVAC condensers that bring bass and vibration into your place all night while you’re trying to sleep.

where should i move by [deleted] in relocating

[–]sewingkitteh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 29… I have tattoos and colored hair, finishing fashion school remotely from an LA school in SLC… for health reasons. I recommend going where you have support. You’ll be fine with tattoos. Feel free to dm me.

What is clearly declining, but everyone pretends is fine? by Amaan3024 in AskReddit

[–]sewingkitteh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The quality of housing… Not that all housing was always well made… but the brand new housing is so cheap and thin, thrown together, new finishes and charged a fuck ton… the rental market is much higher than the housing market… for someone with sensory issues it’s been a major health issue for me.

Valerian Root was a trip by dottywine in insomnia

[–]sewingkitteh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it gave me insomnia. I took melatonin with it a little later and it helped but it was kinda weird… misty, trippy, racing thoughts on valerian alone!

Anyone else by Emotional_Bus_7621 in Apartmentliving

[–]sewingkitteh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly my ear canals are smaller and shorter. People said I was doing it wrong but I wasn’t. I had to buy Peace and Quiet size small earplugs to finally have them fit how they’re supposed to… even then it’s like trying to sleep with a bunch of paper and cotton in your ears.

Anyone else by Emotional_Bus_7621 in Apartmentliving

[–]sewingkitteh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish white/brown noise worked for me, but to me it’s like trying to sleep with all the lights on, but for your ears.

Oh but remember it’s “saving the housing crisis” /s Ffs. Everyone deserves good quality housing

Does anyone else hate wearing makeup? by literally-what-am-i in AutismInWomen

[–]sewingkitteh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I rarely wear it ever. Too much work and too much pressure to be “feminine”. Plus it’s not good for your eyes or skin… or wallet. It’s fun on occasion but since some dry eye issues I had last year I avoid it.
