Or you got the ADHD & Autism combo. Routines are more of a suggestion, but you don’t have the motivation to keep them. Like, yeah, I should put away my clothes, but that seems like extra work. I’ll just leave them in the pile. (There are multiple piles)
I give 1% to my union. My pay is ~10% better than it would be if we didn’t have it, and management gets in huge trouble if they mistreat workers. And by trouble, I mean they fired a manager when they scheduled a worker over their lunch break.
It’s probably more cost effective to run Azure Services on Linux machines than Windows machines.
I was wondering how Signal handles this. Thanks for the info.
I shifted my phone to the side and saw this exact foot placement. Yes.
Don’t know if it’s an ASD thing, though… I do have more uncommon posturing than most people. Need a bigger sample size and a control group.
Mom: undiagnosed ADHD
Dad: undiagnosed ASD
Me: I get a new special interest every month, but they typically involve building.
I looked for a diagnosis. Called lots of providers and, in summary, they only providers that could accept me were expensive and lengthy. I don’t have light or sound sensitivity (which isn’t required) so I don’t need accommodations. I don’t have trama and have worked through most of my issues so I don’t need therapy. There’s objectively no benefit to getting a diagnosis for me other than claiming I have ASD. And there’s some negatives, especially if traveling abroad. So yeah, with that, I don’t want a professional diagnosis. I did lots of research and checked more than enough boxes in the DSM-5 to validate myself. Others’ validation isn’t worth a couple thousand dollars and hours of consultation over a year. If I needed support, it might be worth it, but personally, I feel I’m in a good place.
I was searching for why I am different and found that it had a name and there are other who have similar experiences that I can relate to. That’s good enough for me.
I get gatekeeping and that people may be spreading false information or making the community look bad. Call them out then. Otherwise, an educated self-diagnosis isn’t harming anyone. Let people be at peace with their sense of self.
When you’re running for your life and thinking you should have improved your cardio. You never use that gym membership. Everyone is too intimidating there. Maybe it’d be better to invest in a treadmill. Wait, you looked into that before. Wasn’t it too expensive? [train of thought diverges for another minute] Wait, why did I come to this room again?
Piglet couldn’t censor the mirror.
