Ms. Que Banh<p>Quickie personal hat project. Made it, using a Brother SE1900 sewing &amp; embroidery machine. The hardest part was pinning the hat firmly. The actual embroidery itself was fast since it was done by a machine.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AuDHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AuDHD</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PersonalCreations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PersonalCreations</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NotFlirtingJustAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NotFlirtingJustAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergent</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Quirky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Quirky</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Crafty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Crafty</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Embroidered" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Embroidered</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Queisms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Queisms</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PersonalSayings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PersonalSayings</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ThingsIveMade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThingsIveMade</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/hat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hat</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/BaseballCap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BaseballCap</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Autism</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PSA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PSA</span></a></p>
Stacey Cornelius 🇨🇦<p>Some of you already know this: I've been trying to (literally) work through <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/AuDHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AuDHD</span></a> burnout for months now. It's been going as well as one might expect, which is to say Very Much Not Good, to the point of pushing me into a crisis. </p><p>The ADHD assessment I recently paid for was... let's not go there. I posted about it previously, but I've had time to think, and I'm angry. Way too angry to discuss it further right now. (User-pay Autism assessments cost way more, btw.)</p><p>So when your best option fails, what do you do? </p><p>The health care and "mental health" systems where I live are a colossal mess. Either you have money to find the right solutions or you're forced into the publicly-funded Tiny Little Box. You fit into that, or good friggin' luck.</p><p>It's quite an experience for your brand-new primary care provider try to push you into a situation that doesn't feel safe, and then discover that the alleged two-week wait is nearly two months.</p><p>But then.</p><p>In a way I never imagined, support came from an unexpected direction. </p><p>So I moved from anxiety level 11 to about 3.5 in record time. </p><p>Also unexpected is I've shifted from crisis mode to a Gen-X menopausal intersectional feminist rage cauldron.</p><p>Which means my already-overloaded neurodivergent brain has moved into a new phase of decolonization. (I pity the next fool who tries to tell me to be quiet and fit in.) </p><p>But the big lesson here is the value of people who actually give a damn. The people who can hold space, and who understand what "grace" means. The people who value you as a human being, not a problem to be solved, not a pathology, or a set of symptoms. The people who don't have to know all the details to have your back.</p><p>We need more of those people. I'm so grateful I have some of them in my life. </p><p>I'm by no means on solid ground but lemme tell ya, the rage cauldron is 1000% better than existential terror.</p>
Heather Cook🖖Autistic Coach<p>When you allow yourself to do less, or to do it in smaller bits or not to the full extent that you want, you’re starting to build a trust with yourself that you’re going to be able to do things.</p><p>You’re teaching your nervous system that it’s going to be okay in the future, by knowing when it is too much to do.</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Autistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Autistic</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AuDHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AuDHD</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BurnoutRecovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BurnoutRecovery</span></a></p>

Verđandi K. Soldusty<p>Okay, what happened? I had breakfast, did chores, dragged myself out for a walk, let myself stop three times to look for a long audio cable before getting home, having lunch followed by hanging the washing &amp; now it's nearly teatime 😳?<br>Unless I want to still be up at 03:00 I'd better cancel my afternoon plans.<br>This, this is why I'm mostly frustrated. I need to lock my chores up &amp; only let them out once a week or something 🤷 but it always feels like herding cats. There's always one that's urgent or needs doing before tomorrow, plus I don't fancy tackling seven days of washing up.

thejikz<p>Some people start to catch on, but never put a pin on my wardrobe scheme. One distant family member got it closest stating I dress like an NPC. Yes, that is quite close I suppose. People end up asking me why I don't wear more color. Bitch please. Cool grey, warm gray, arctic grey, solar grey, onyx pin striped grey, grey, gray, iron grey, grey sea, grey whale, pnw grey, light grey, darkish grey, charcoal grey, really realky dark grey (blackish), really really light grey(whiteish)... Like a lot of colors do I wear, so we can move on from that now. :'D <br>I can grab pants, shirt, socks, shoes, any day, any chaos level, and I nearly always match. But not when I get the gray and the grey mixed up. <br><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/audhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audhd</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/greyisacolor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greyisacolor</span></a></p>
