I recently read something about autistic inertia…this seems to be a real thing. It struck home with me so hard I have blocked everything I read.
I had a demanding schedule of various activities through most of my life.
Recently I’ve notice an increasing tendency to spend time unproductively. |

In a healthy relationships the spoons are given back and forth freely, sometimes shared simultaneously, sometimes unequally. It sounds like you are out of spoons. Sometimes we do give until we are out of spoons. As difficult as it is now, you can replenish your spoon supply. It is not easy. It takes... |

Dear Friend TDF, You are familiar, of course, of comforting orphaned children with the vision that the missing one is sitting in heaven looking down on the child and sending love and care. That has never appealed to me, but I find myself sitting on the ground, under the mango tree, next to your bifo... |

Very interesting, AA. Thanks for posting. I will try to see it.
The last comet I saw was Hayley’s. Viewing it on two different nights and seeing its position change relative to the background stars gave me a real gut-based perception of the universe. |

If you are asking could you be so successful and still be autistic? The answer is yes.
Knowing one is autistic is helpful to get accommodations and to help you figure your own work-arounds. |

About 30 years ago there were lectures and programs and retreats about one’s inner child. For those subjected to trauma as a child, it was posited that wounded child still exists within the adult and that the adult can learn how to protect and heal the inner child. Google John Bradshaw.

I never knew what that was until I met my husband. I didn’t believe him, but he showed me pictures.
Alligators are so common here, I forget they are exotic to others. You can see them sunning on a canal bank when driving your car. |

The death penalty is neither humane nor civilized. If you start with the assumption that human life is of value, then intentional murder by the state is unconscionable. Certainly there are some people who do not believe human life has value, but I don’t want them making decisions that affect other l... |

Upon consideration, I’d say that when I make a faux pas of the NT sort, people are likely to see me as a batty old lady, rather than weird. So, yes, getting older does give NTs another option. They can make the assumption your problems are due to age, rather than autism, which they would just see as... |
