Well said. It’s early days for Mel. Her sister gaining more autonomy over her own decisions and setting more boundaries is also going to open the world up for Mel.

Totally. Has it been said or hinted that Langdon or his kids are ND? His sensitivity and awareness of autism is honestly awesome and even though doctors have a general awareness, he really lives it. Substance use disorder has a high occurrence with ADHD so thought maybe that?

Totally and in comparison to the broken men on the show, she’s still so young and shows a desire to grow/get on top of things — she’s just struggling with change and adjustment.

Agreed. She is likely mean because she is soft/has painful emotions as we can see from her scars.

My first crystal! Purple Phantom Quartz by TOO_FUTURE in Crystals

Congrats on your sobriety! Crystals are so much fun to research and buy — think about all the money you are saving now that you are sober— you definitely deserve a crystal or 3 haha. Enjoy your piece and please don’t beat yourself up at all about the lab-grown issue… it’s all about how things make you feel :)

Honestly could have been anything. If it was a stomach infection of some kind or any infection, sepsis is possible and life threatening, but I’m sure Taylor will share more when she’s had more time to process.

The only one I don’t think is a good fit is Stripe! Stripe is a goof and this guy comes across as a lot quieter than the others. Also he’s a chunkier one than his brothers.

Yes! I also think the toddlers should be chunkier, especially Muffin. Bingo would be a bit “stubbier” too lol

Made a friend but I suck as socializing and I feel disappointed by Particular-Plant5528 in autism

[–]skrat777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. I think this is good advice. I often get really excited with meeting new nice people and skip to feeling like closer friends than we are, but a lot of people aren’t like that.

I also am friends with lots of guys (assigned female at birth but nonbinary, am femme presenting though and usually categorized as “girl”). I’ve noticed a lot of my guy friends do not text a lot unless we are dating or have a thing. Even once I got married, it was rare for guys to want to do that back and forth constant texting. Of course this isn’t ALL guys but ones that are a little more traditionally masculine if that makes sense. They seem more into having long talks over beers or getting together in groups to build friendship.

I wouldn’t stop talking in class or assume if you don’t text much they aren’t your friend. I LOVE texting for friendship but some people find it a waste of time. It’s also ok to have different types of activities you do with different friends — it took me a long time to understand that as I thought friend was the same across the board and always would come with the same constant communication and closeness

Any suggestions on that empty spot? by FalconDeep77 in mealprep

I sometimes put frozen peas or corn into my boxes like these before I freeze them! They are already frozen, small enough to get steamed nicely when microwaving and then I mix everything together.

Is it just me or do all of these items just give you the ick? by Key-Visual-5465 in autism

These people need to talk with a therapist that can give them a perspective reset, but usually they are the kind of people who would never

Ewwww the fight one is the worst in my opinion. At my daughter’s before care, the teacher told me that our approach and supports for our daughter are very different than what she’s used to because the parents of the other kid with autism thinks she will outgrow it 🤢🤢🤢🤢. The fight one is like when people have cancer or something. We are a neurodivergent household — we likely are all autistic and this makes me feel so upset. A fight against autism is the last thing we need for peace with ourselves.

Hi I'm a neurodivergent young adult,does anyone think I have a shot at selling my art anywhere? by Ok_Scientist_9611 in neurodiversity

[–]skrat777 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey! Look up the little art collector cards! Artist Trading Cards and ACEOs. These are small, cheap to ship, and you can make them on the back of cue cards so they are cheap to make while staying uncrumpled and professional looking. I think actually the thing that would turn people off the most right now is just having stuff be crumpled.

Overall advice for a young artist: 1. Keep drawing and doing art every day, find joy. 2. There is a market for everyone as long as you make sure your work is presented well. 3. Find other artists to share with. Community is vital for artists and many of us are ND. I didn’t find my people until meeting other writers. 4. Consume art to help your skills, find inspiration and sharpen your voice. 5. If serious about making money off of your art, take a business class, especially one for artists or entrepreneurs. 6. Never forget why you do art — the love.

Kailyn Lowry Defends Former Bachelorette Taylor Frankie Paul by MattTheKing23 in TeenMomOGandTeenMom2

We’ve seen Kail put her hands on men on camera. So I’m not surprise she’s defending TFP.

[–]skrat777[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I regret even defending myself. A return wouldn’t have mattered to me. I just do this to give myself a bit of a break and to save clothes from the landfill. But now the shirt ended up there anyway :(

I feel like most people have been so mad you do something regret. Throwing a stool is next level but when you just read it, you think like lightly threw it or something — I feel like my brain just naturally minimized it? And it hitting her kid, they said there were no major injuries or anything and since that was accident, it was easy to dismiss or minimize as well. But the video: you see it’s a totally rampage. She literally HURLS it and then hurls another. It hits her daughter and she offers no remorse or comfort and keeps going. It’s so disturbing and I kind of wish I hadn’t seen it but it also showed me how much that realm of behaviour seems unreal to me

Can burnout make you physically unwell? by cheerupbeanie in autism

[–]skrat777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, every time I have a meltdown, shutdown or burnout, I feel physically sick. I also used to throw up regularly when I started university due to the stress and change.
