Have the fedi groups for #ActuallyAutistic and #ActuallyADHD changed? As in do they have different names/titles compared to before?

#actuallyAutistic #actuallyADHD

So, friends - as the gup.pe groups have unexpectedly died, how do we all get together again elsewhere? Has anyone set up anything yet, and how do we spread the word?

If you haven’t heard about it yet:

When you struggle with Object Permanence, everything in a box, cupboard or drawer becomes a Schrödinger's thing(s).

Do they exist or don't they exist, or do they only exist if you remember them & where you put them?
Do they only exist when you find / rediscover them?

Anyone else a fan of the movie/tv show Limitless? Watching them for maybe the 4th or 5th time now. The starting position of these two people resonates really hard, especially Eddie since he's a writer like me. Probably it's the ADHD side, but could be the autistic side; not sure since I'm both. Definitely an executive function issue. The appeal isn't of being smarter (although that's cool too), it's that being able to engage hyperfocus at will. If I could just look at (one of) my to-do list(s), and hyperfocus each item off of it, *that* would be amazing.

Log in to ebay to check things I've ordered.
Once logged in, proceeds to spend 30 minu- what do you mean 3 hours? …
Survives 3 hours hunting for the mythical Surface Pro 1 (2013) case & / or cover 😱😭😞
How's that for hyperfocus? Am I doing it right?
Also keywords / points: Mythical, Pro, 1 & 2013. eBay shows me everything else (Surface Go / Surface Pro 4+) instead 🤦.

Right it's 13:30, time for a tasty brunch & a gallon of tea to cheer me up.
(Online) shopping is such fun (⬅️total sarcasm).

P.s. I did find some 'universals' that should do … I hope 🤞.
Just need to recalibrate my brain to except boring over the design / colour I want so I can order the right one.

I've spent a lifetime making myself smaller for everyone.

Making myself the version of me that was most useful and comfortable for everyone around me.

And I *HAVE* to stop before I disappear.

I wrote about learning to TAKE UP SPACE: https://fromemily.com/space-taking-defiance/

Maybe you've made yourself smaller too? Let's TAKE UP SPACE together.

Hi. I'm terrified.

I've been trying to make my own space on the web for years. And I've been stuck. Badly.

But today is my birthday. And I refuse to let another year pass without putting something—anything—out there.

So here it is in all its messy glory. My first post on my barely-there #website: https://fromemily.com/hi-im-terrified/

It's not great. But it's okay...enough.

And I hope it means something to someone.

My brain's been serving up some real darkness lately.

(And when an #ActuallyAutistic brain latches onto something, it COMMITS 🙃)

So I'm reminding myself that in this world (especially at this time) ✨#Autistic Joy✨ is an act of defiant resistance.

And I'll be damned if I don't remember to stand in awe of all I've weathered, and of our #neurodivergent culture as a whole.
