Sounds totally reasonable and will cost them nothing.

I do get what you mean though. I'm 57 now and diagnosed last year. I had a diagnosis of dyslexia at 19, when it was only just really being recognised and no one really knew how to accomodate it. I…

I hear you Billy.

The autistic imperitive to flight or fight when getting abused battles with the fact that you love them and they need you.

that makes sense. It was wierd today, I was very burned out from doing difficult jobs the last couple of days and from socialising. My wife says shes noticed this happening to me before but I dont remember it. It was like I could smell every smell if…
