A classic symptom of Asperger's is alexithymia (emotion blindness.) On an analytical level, I don't have this problem: it's basic pattern recognition, and that is something I excel at: I see the facial expression, I compare it to my "database" of emotions, et voila! I know what feeling the...
My sleeping schedule is now reversed and it has been awful for my mood. I'm terrified of having a bad sleeping schedule because I have my fur baby to take care of, and if I'm unable to walk and feed her then she doesn't get taken care of and it's my fault. Not to mention I'm hungry all the time...
Mop the floor in the bathroom.
Mop the floor in the kitchen.
Take my medicine and vitamins.
Walk my fur baby.
Feed my fur baby.
Shower.
Brush teeth.
Write in my private food diary.
Wash my dishes.
Here is a list of my chores I need to do tomorrow. Most of these are things I do everyday but it...
I finally started a plan with my dietitian last Thursday and so far I've been following it pretty well. Though I discovered that I can no longer eat PB&J because it goes over my limit of 45mg carbohydrates per meal. Even if it's on whole wheat bread. Right now I'm stuck using the microwave for...
It was a bright summer morning when my parents and I began our much-anticipated summer vacation carrying our bags to the bus station on Stone Street. There, a crimson bus filled with excited passengers eager for their upcoming holidays waited to leave for Prague at 6:00 AM. There was an air of...
I’m feeling very overwhelmed today. I almost had a flashback at work and I’m new but I went up to a coworker I like to talk to sometimes I told her “I’m going to have a flashback” so she took me to the bathroom and I just sat there and shook but she talked me down very well!!!! I am grateful for...
At last I finally got everything I needed to do DONE! I'm now able to relax in bed without anxiety balling up inside my stomach. Things went very smoothly with my blood work and with my first dietitian appointment. I even got to pet a dog today! I'm super relieved everything went as well as it...
I got my blood drawn and now I have to wait for 11:00 AM so I can go to see my dietitian for the first time, but I'm tired since I had to wake up at 4:00 AM in order to have enough time to get ready for both appointments. Not to mention my apartment might be getting inspected and I hardly have...
I have so much to do and I'm so overwhelmed.
Tomorrow I get my second Moderna shot and I have to prepare for a USDA inspection for my apartment. I didn't get any preparations done today and I made dinner which I barely ate any of. I'm upset with myself.
On the 19th is the official inspection...
I had my first meltdown in over a year today. And today is the first day I have recognized that my meltdowns are, maybe, different than an NT might exprience.
Despite the draining, ugly nature of my meltdown, seeing this event differently is a relief!
Ever since I remember, meltdowns have...
I babysat my three year old neice yesterday. We were watching t.v. and she was sitting on my lap when she told me "You have funny boobs". It took all of effort to not laugh. I had been feeling quite pressured and stressed but that one line made everything right again.
I have taken several online Autisim assessment quizes, tests now. I have repeated the AQ test about 5 times and the Aspie Quiz 3 times. I have also completed a similar test from a book I sm reading. No matter what mood I am in, no matter how I check my self to ensure honest answers, I get...
