Hi guys!
Over the last two months I've made amazing progress with my Autism and with my life I'm eating better, I've even started having breakfast (although I'm not keen on it) and I'm also going for more walks and my worrying and physical anxiety pain is better. Overall I am feeling so much better I've also been writing a book and I'm proud to say that I'm actually thinking of publishing it as it's nearly done!!
Sadly but communication skills are still bad and I still suffer from panic attacks if I push myself too far. But right now I'm comfortable and I have to say, I'm more than happy to be back here with you guys!
That’s great news thanks for sharing and don’t push yourself too far
Thank you BlueRay I'm going slowly so hopefully I don't screw it up.
Yeah, me too. It’s taken nearly two years and four support workers (if you include my autism psychiatrist) to convince me to take ‘baby steps’.
I didn’t understand what they were talking about at first and thought it was a ridiculous idea, until I witnessed for myself that the less I did, the more I achieved .
I only eat once or twice a day (when I’ve got a routine) so I’m currently exploring what works best for me, for example, eating my food earlier in the day or later in the day. And it looks like earlier is going to work for me, which is how I used to eat when I was at my best.
My goal, before I even think about working again, is to figure out what works best for me to eliminate the possibility of another burnout. And so far, it’s going very very well. I absolutely know, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that I’ll never experience burnout again and baby steps has been a key player on my journey to this realisation.
Keep up the good work brother because once we get this, we really do begin to live the enormous benefits of being autistic in today’s world
Yeah, I know that one, some unexpected understanding coming from some people
