advice on expanding diet

Mnjesse

I have a very limited diet due to autism and trauma. Even as a baby when i switched from milk to solid food i would spit everything else. Growing up feeding difficulties were met with violence. Now im 24 abd very embarrassed about my inability to eat most foods. I was wondering if people had advice on how to expand my range of acceptable foods

  • Hello Mnjesse.

    There is no reason to feel embarrassed -  you will have your reasons to be restrictive, where in fact, many autistic people find themselves limited in dietary options - this is not acting difficult, in the slightest.

    While I can see that our community is starting to provide fantastic feedback, I wonder if the following NAS resource would be useful:

    Eating - a guide for all audiences

    I wish you the best in finding the means to expand your diet.

    Thanks - Zac Mod.
