📋 SURVEY FOR PEOPLE ON THE AUTISM SPECTRUM
Do you feel that, because you’re on the autism spectrum, you often find yourself in conflict with others?
Personally, I hate conflict, but it seems to me that, because of my autism, it tends to come up quite often in my life.
Feel free to share your experiences in the comments.
I’d also appreciate a boost to get a larger sample size. Thank you! 🙏

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1047 , Wednesday 09/09/2026
Wednesday started early with a decent session at the gym.
Did some work tidying up the garage this morning then went adventuring in Starfield this afternoon.
Final Thoughts.
Not a bad day a few more spoons today.
I really need to get my act into gear & chase the guy from the tool charity. Not heard back from the email I sent yet.
Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

Since I have been diagnosed I find showering much more difficult. I used to wash virtually every day, now I basically do it twice a week, or maybe every 4 days,and only then from a sense of shame.

An autistic meltdown isn't "bad" per se.
It's also not good, at all.
Let's not moralise them.
It's a reaction - like a sneeze.
They can be traumatic and violent.
They can put us in danger.
They're scary.
But they aren't a BEHAVIOUR.
"Behaviour" implies choice.
It implies something to be managed and corrected.
A meltdown is an alarm.
It means needs went unmet for long enough that your system ran out of quieter ways to say so.
The world spends its energy silencing our alarm instead of asking what set it off in the first place.
