Suggestions for things we can do to help ourselves re ASD

There's not a lot of support out there and, per my *disabled thread, it's unclear about what benefits, if any, we can access.

So, I've so far:

Got a disability badge from my county council

Today purchased an 'I am autistic' badge from Amazon

Today purchased loop ear plugs from Amazon

Purchased a disability toilet key from Amazon

What else can we do to make our lives a little bit easier?

  • I bought non ticking clocks for my living room and kitchen also because i don't know about anyone else but the ticking sound really bugs me 

  • I used to put my clock under the pillows on the floor at night until digital clocks arrived but digital clocks are still too loud for me so I also have a silent one for my bedroom.

    Also, I didn't have wind up clocks around the house at all - the sound drives me mad.

    It feels like torture.
