So I hear us autistics love/need our routines but what if our routine is doing absolutely bare minimal. Well I think that’s what my routine is and if I have to do anything or am made/asked to do something I get very stand-off ish and rather unpleasant this then leads to arguments with the person asking, mainly my NT wife who is struggling to understand my condition and how it affects me(newly diagnosed) this results in me thinking im just a nasty lazy piece of work and a rubbish husband who not only doesn’t work but doesn’t even help at home.
I know I shouldn’t but I still feel like there’s something wrong with me and I’m broken! I’m a worthless waste of oxygen!
It's nice to hear from you. And I apologise if I wrote anything to upset you last week.
Routines are good. They make people more predicable.
What exactly is your wife asking you to do?
And are these requests reasonable?
No need to apologise.
Only little things hear and there, and yea most the time they are reasonable
