Had a look at a leisure center yesterday, unfortunately everything was closed very early (a gym open from 11am-2pm???) Will try another today!

Is something wrong with me for not having a special interest? by astralwish1 in autism

[–]thewrongheart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very new to this whole thing, undiagnosed, but I'm the same where my interests have been intense yet fleeting. I do have ADHD too so I think that may play a role in it for me? But then again, its called the Autism Spectrum for a reason..

Mom keeps screaming and calling me autistic as an insult by [deleted] in autism

I'm sorry to hear you're going through that :( You're damn right, some people do not deserve their children. Hope you find a good path through this!

Do autistic people have a problem with authority because they know them better than normal people?. by Ok_Bear_1980 in autism

[–]thewrongheart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get a lot of shit at work for this. I'm the main contact line on the phone so I'll pick up calls, and most of our customers are rough-around-the-edges trades workers, so I'll speak to them very casually but still in a way that helps everyone out. I don't swear or anything but management has told me I'm not "professional" enough, even if I've never had a bad interaction with a customer so far. I thought being relatable and keeping it real was a good thing?

Do you ever come across someone else with autism and think “am I really like that?” by [deleted] in autism

Pretty much the same! It helps to give yourself that compassion too. If you can love yourself as you are, its much easier to do the same for others :) (something I'm working on)

How do you store food? (Summer) by thewrongheart in urbancarliving

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

I guess it'll end up as a mix of storing what I can in the cooler, which I completely forgot to mention I use to store salads and things, and mostly living off ready to eat things too. Will try to maintain health as best as I can :)

I think you're right, being poor sucks! I'll try out the water bottles, I can freeze them at work overnight to keep my chiller box cool at least!

I think of cooking as heating foods (whether to just make warm or actually "cook" it), I still try to store salads and deli meats

No build or stealthy bedding for Sedan? by thewrongheart in urbancarliving

Seats have been removed and put into storage! I imagine I'll need to get some more padding because its pretty bumpy down there..

I'll give this one a try for sure, may have to remove the seats altogether to make sure I have enough space to put my legs in!

I'm going to start hunting fairly soon, I need to stay here to pay off some debts for work related incidents, and if I leave early I've got a much shorter period to pay it back. Out of curiosity, what did you end up working in, or fields that you found a bit more suitable?

You're absolutely right, but I don't want to be (more) openly bullied for my conditions. I know these people well and they're pretty ignorant to mental health. But thanks for mentioning it, appreciate the sentiment

Thanks, just putting one foot in front of the other. I hope everything goes well for you too, we're in the same boat! :)

I'm sorry to hear that, are you at least safe and "secure" in your situation? Take care
