Hello everyone, I’m new here. I was in need of joining a forum to speak amongst people who get it and the society opened my eyes to this one. So this will be my first post!
Recently been going through a major turn in my life. Along with ASD I have physical difficulty which seems to be worsening. The turn is that I’m being a little bit more self aware. I don’t know if anybody else struggles with recognising bodily issues until somebody else points out that you should see a doctor?
Since becoming more self aware I’ve bren trying to find methods to help myself. But I’m finding a major challenge starting new things. For instance, starting different forms of art to be able to express myself. But I get a kind of physical reaction of disgust and repulsion. I have always had an issue with stationary and textures of material irking me a lot and I suppose the messiness. So I believe art materials brings this out in me.
Currently I’m just comfortable with drawing because it causes less repulsion I think. I’m wondering if anybody has some words on how I can get over this? I hope this easy to understand!
