    How do I stop masking?

    Thank you. I found your response very helpful. I know that for now all I can really do is keep trying. I feel like my own confidence has been the biggest hindrance, but if I can get past that I think I now understand better what I need to do next. It definitely helps me to hear from someone...

    How do I stop masking?

    I'm not sure since my parents took over everything for me. I didn't hear them mention anything about a waiting list. My Mum has already had an appointment where they asked about symptoms, so I'm not entirely sure what's happening. My parents barely discussed anything with me and now, as I've...

    How do I stop masking?

    I am from to UK. I have looked into it, but though my searches, did not find any options. Although, I may just have not been looking in the right places as I have not had any prior experience with healthcare services.

    How do I stop masking?

    My parents are definitely the same in that regard, and they also seem to think that I'd find it comforting if they say it's not the case, which I do not understand since I am the one actively saying I wish to see someone. I would gladly do this by myself if I were able, but alas, I am currently...

    How do I stop masking?

    I have realised I have been masking ever since I started high school. I never really knew that I was doing it or what it was at the time. Now I'm out of high school and I have had the opportunity to get diagnosed, but sadly that hasn't led anywhere so far. My parents aren't that bothered with me...

    My dog passed away today

    My dog passed away today. I know I should feel sad, logically thinking I know I would be and I am I guess. But I don't really feel it. Death has never really been something I fully understand I guess. The thing that's hitting hardest is knowing how much this will change now. My dog has been a...

    How do I deal with overstimulation when my family don't understand?

    I'm not entirely sure. As when I mentioned I don't like physical contact they just did in more to intentionally annoy me. The problem is more so they don't really take any of it seriously, because I'm bad at communicating exactly what I mean, so they just think I don't like it, like the...

    How do I deal with overstimulation when my family don't understand?

    Yes that is also a problem. I don't like not being about to hear as well. Its my I can't wear headphones in public spaces at all. Also I relate to the nylon thing. Even looking at it makes me feel weird.

    How do I deal with overstimulation when my family don't understand?

    How do I deal with overstimulation I'd my family don't understand? Whenever I'm overstimulated I just have to act as normal. My family have picked up on how I don't like physical contact so they often try to hug me or touch my shoulders and on those days its just so much worse. My family...

    Don't Be Shy To Introduce Yourself

    Hi. My name is Yancy. I am 17. I haven't been diagnosed but am currently going through the process of getting a diagnosis. I have been dealing with really bad agoraphobia for a while now and am just hoping that here is a place where I can speak with like minded people and actually have some form...
