I had a turning point moment last week when I happened upon Howard Stern interviewing Jerry Seinfeld on radio (recorded 9/25/17). Seinfeld is usually reticent to reveal himself in interviews but these are yappy friends and he let his guard down.
At one point Howard asks, "Are you on the...
Maybe my anxiety is also just a result of being disregulated.
I've been reading as much as I can about Aspergers in the workplace, and there's useful info on being disregulated and needing to be more intentional about trying to regulate oneself with smart routines. I used to hate routines in...
I used to try very hard to make my workspace seem like home, to reflect my personality and interests. It was an attempt to create a little safe haven nest at work, to try to escape/block out my surrounding situation (the workplace). It didn't help reduce my work anxiety. It may have made it...
It's not that I mind explaining things that have been asked. But in general, I don't like being boxed. I feel that once people know about my religion, they will not be as open and trusting in approaching me, that they have stereotypes and ideas of their own of how I "must" be, they censor...
Several months ago, I would have told you that any given moment I couldn't tell you what I was feeling. I couldn't access any sense of feeling anything in particular. Over the past 4 days, I have been able to access my feelings - and it's always some form of anxiety. I even wake up with it...
Not the Doctor, but a doctor for sure. Which is to say, I've succesfully made it to the finish line, I am no longer a student, I will be receiving my medical license soon and I've been hired by a local hospital, where I'll be starting my first real job as a doctor pretty soon. My last entries...
I'm so grateful for this site. I don't think I realized the importance of community, of a sense of belonging, until I found my tribe. At work, trying to navigate the NT world, trying to do my best socially, it helps me in a profound way to remember this community here as my tribe, to remember...
When I have been out and about or in the company of other people (other than my husband), my facial muscles feel so tense that my face feels almost like a hard mask. I've only recently realized my face is doing this - and I'm guessing this is why people think I look tense. Yesterday I noticed...
This link is about how Equifax carelessly exposed millions of people's personal data, and was rewarded for this by being given a government contract that would allow them to do even more damage to more people. Even hardend politicians of both parties were shocked by this.
Senators express shock...
Hi, sarah_r92 here.
I created another blog called Sarah's Blog and since my first blog Beautiful Chaos is about music (which I'm really into) this second blog is going to be only about my life in general. I probably won't be writing a lot on here since my main main blog is Beautiful Chaos, but...
Since I'm now posting blogs on here and not on Tumblr anymore, this article will be a very personal and probably even an emotional one. And it includes a favorite band of mine, The Psychedelic Furs.
When I used to write on Tumblr, I never talked about my personal life and the struggles I have...
that moment you start to realize that you are not feeling anxious when you get dizzy in large crowds, rush hour at work, bright lights overhead, but in fact feeling sensory overload. I'm picking it up more. right now it still takes me a while to go "OH! the lights are too much, Oh! the sounds...
I've been watching videos of Aspies talking about dealing with life, work, all kinds of stuff. It is different from reading typed words - when I view people in action - and I mean when they "Aspie out", i.e. have no filter....it shows me in a mirror what I can be like. I relate to it - it's...
I've been watching/listening to videos and reading books on job prep for Aspies. I watched one short documentary on an Australian Aspie who is trying to get into the workforce. It was fun to watch, and there were just a few parts that made me cringe:
When the supervisor told him to "enjoy...
Some of the things I have collected are very useful in an unarguably practical sense - I can wear them, and I will need to wear them, and eventually will wear them all out. Other things were purely decorative, but made our home look nice, and my husband likes them all. But what I have felt...

This blog will probably be short but I had been wanting to do a list of songs I’ve heard live at the Psychedelic Furs concerts that I went to. And also a list of songs that I want to hear live.
I feel so lucky that I saw The Psychedelic Furs three...

I’m back with another blog about my favorite band. I wanted to write about The Psychedelic Furs again because recently I got music biographer Dave Thompson’s biography of them, called Beautiful Chaos, and also I again want to talk about how why...

Happy Anniversary to Green Day’s seventh album and one of my favorite albums of all time, American Idiot. I can’t believe it was released 13 years ago, and thinking about it makes me feel kind of old, as I was 12 when the album was released.
Last...

As you know I’m a huge, huge fan of The Psychedelic Furs and wrote many blogs about them on [Tumblr]. How much I appreciated them, the concerts I attended, albums, and more. And also I wrote a couple blogs about Green Day, another band that I...
[First posted on my Tumblr September 2, 2017.]
Last March I wrote a blog on [Tumblr] about my top favorite albums from The Psychedelic Furs. If you’re wondering about the title of this blog I’m not doing another list. The albums that I had listed as my most favorites are still the same, in the...
