This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.
Communication seems to be key for me. explain to my wife that I am overstimulated or over stressed and need to chill for a bit and will go do an activity that calms me. It does take people who are willing to accept people whose minds and emotions don’t work the same way. But generally being honest about how I’m feeling with people and saying if I need a break has worked well.
