Things that cause distress

Crystal

I'm doing an autism passport.    But I can't get my head round sharing with other people things that cause me distress.  Obviously not all people can be trusted, so why give other people that information??    Am I wrong?   Isn't it just enough to say that I get stressed easily?   How have other people navigated this part of the form?   Grateful for any advice.

  • FWIW.....It took me about half a century, to be able to "isolate, distinguish and put-a-name-to" aka IDENTIFY my triggers.  I now only share those "triggers" with people, when I feel a need to do so.  You aren't wrong therefore (in my opinion) to be reticent to share your "weaknesses" on a form.....that will potentially be used against you in the future.

    The world is moving (these days,) at a dizzying pace.  Perhaps....protect your privacy and autonomy......rather than attaining a piece of paper and "digital record" unless you are WHOLLY confident that what you seek is a) accurate b) useful for/to you.

    My advice is proffered SOLEY with your best interests in mind....and you can be sure of that....because there is no plausible ulterior motive for me to provide this advice to you.

    I hope this is helpful to you, at this time.
