The neurotypical disorder
I’m not one who claims autism is not a disability. Oh, by all means, it is. It was the inability to predict other people behaviour that put me into all those troubles with The Company and the employment tribunal case, where I ended up developing psychotic episode. That wasn’t what I wanted, believe me. You […]

I’m in Poland
I’m in my home country Poland, in beautiful village Smardzewice, where I was brought up. I have some serious issues to sort out, including fraud that my mum was a victim. It’s not fun, my brother has his own issues (with alcohol and serious self neglect) and my mum is in a care home as […]

I hope that helps
It has been brought to my attention that what I’m doing here – I mean, providing phrases neurotypical people use is not going to be effective.Well, obviously, we can’t just learn all of them by heart (although I don’t really have that many for now, do I?) but I’m sure it’s better to do that […]

I’m sure you’re going to handle everything beautifully
Imagine a situation when you have to leave work early and the only person staying in is much less experienced than you. What are you going to say? ‘I’m sure you’re going to handle everything beautifully’ is an example of a supportive and encouraging statement. If you’re both females, that is! Do not attempt to […]
