How to deal with autistic meltdowns

"Shouting, screaming, throwing things, threatening people.."

You forgot '''threatening things''', I regularly threaten my printer if it plays up.... and printers DO play up. I threaten it with violence and  it dosen't take a blind bit of notice.... it just sits there.... Grrrrrrrrrr! (Acutally, over the years I've destroyed a few).

I've definitely punched/screamed at pillows this year.The frustration is real. Do you feel like your hands don't work sometimes? 

I don't know about my hands, but 'I' certainly don't work sometims

Thanks, I'll have a look. Sounds helpful.

Nice to know I'm not the only one. The aspie world had a video on exercises you can do to "get back into your body." He swears it helps---sounds like work, but maybe it's worth it.
