Some reflections on my mute lifestyle

Today marks the third month that I've been completely silent outside of work and ordering at stores or restaurants. Being autistic to a point where nobody can relate to me at all...I think this is the best possible strategy for the rest of my life. It's very peaceful, too. I don't have to worry about screwing up what I say when it's almost always just "good morning" and potentially an update on anything that may have happened at my post overnight or "I'd like (xyz) please". I can't get away with being completely mute sadly...but this will do.

Being autistic to a point where nobody can relate at all? You have a security job and are capable of forming coherent sentences in text. Sounds like you're just insecure, overrun with social anxiety

So how has everyone else's experience been on here?

For me, being as socially awkward as I am, this app has pretty much reinforced my belief that I'm not compatible with any other person. I only still have this app to see who occasionally sends a request. We message each other a few times then the conversation goes dead.

We're all very special

I know there has to be somebody out there who feels me. Sometimes you really don't need a playlist you need the repeat button. If the beat is right I'm motivated. I'm working 9a to midnight, and the song Once Again - FOVOS Remix by Dillon Francis, VINNE, FOVOS hits me in just the right place. Every... read more

cohabitation problems

it's sometimes hard living with other ASD people. when one is overwhelmed and the other is stimming loudly things can escalate quickly. Communication helps, even non verbal one, using signs, cards, etc. can ve really helpful. with all of this, here's a little meme i made about that x)

What is masking like?

I learnt that masking is a thing conected with autism. I used to think that I had some sort of undiagnosed personality disorder or something until I found out from my mom I had ASD. I guess that explains why I acted so diffrent with other people, friends, classes, and even my parents. When im with... read more

Dating whilst on the spectrum
