  • Feeling defeated

    Yesterday I was planning to go for an employment open day to a certain care company and later for an appointment with my job coach from a disability service. Those were going to be my opportunities to talk about my blog in a context of employment. And what happened was, first thing in the morning…

  • …and a cat (how I understand systems)

    I did mention here, at the beginning of my blogging career, that I see new social situations like if they were jigsaw puzzles made of different elements. So for example new job would consist of the interior of the building where it takes place, the manager, colleagues, clients, equipment and so on. I think part…

  • What an eventful day (I really need to stop second-guessing myself)

    So basically this is about yet another situation when the fact that I know I’m autistic prevented me from doing the right thing. It’s very difficult, I’m telling you: in one moment the awareness is helping me to keep my mouth shut when it shoud be shut, two minutes later I will not do something…

  • Me and Devi

    I’ve been watching Rebecca Zung lately again as I found her videos really informative. Rebecca Zung is an US divorce attorney and ‘narcissists negotiator’ as she calls herself. She seems to know a lot about narcissists, definitely much more than me, however, she’s focused on divorces and not on working with one so it’s hard…

  • I feel a bit sad (possibly even rejected)

    So, The Boyfriend came to see me yesterday, which is quite usual for the weekend, although not each of them, and today in the morning he read in the traffic updates that there has been ‘major incident’ on the motorway so there are delays and therefore he decided to leave just after 9am, to be…

  • How to say the right thing

    First of all, I just realised that giving my post proper titles, instead of numbers or dates, is actually beneficial. I am about to add a link to one of them and I remember the post I’m after was titled ‘Wrong answer’, so it was quite easy to find, while if they only have numbers,…

    As always, I don’t know how to title my posts. Everything seems so out of place, but then, titling them by numbers would not be very practical now, when I used links to some of them in other posts. It’s the third day of my exhaustion, at this moment it seems unbelievable that it’s all…

    I keep having difficulties with coming up with titles for posts, I feel like I should give them numbers instead. I guess this maybe an autistic thing. Possibly I’ll change them later, I will see. I’m still tired today, although not as bad as yesterday. I am also quite hungry for some reason so I…

  • Wrong answer! (I feel absolutely exhausted)

    I think it’s funny how tired I am today, even though I didn’t overexert myself yesterday. The training didn’t require using any physical force but I was exposed to cold and noise for quite a few hours – I thought yesterday I could cope with it, but now the exhaustion is a result. Even the…

  • I failed!

    So, basically, I didn’t pass my LLOP (low level order picker) driving test. I am not sure how it happened – I miserably failed on reversing from the right, was unable to do it properly at all and it didn’t make any sense to me, while I coud do reversing from the left at the…
