The Rule
Guess what my surname means in my native language. Exactly that! I never really liked it. Maybe that’s why I understand that some rules really need to be broken. But possibly my dad understood it differently? And that’s why… Anyway… how does that affect AUTISM RESEARCH?

I made a massive mistake
I had a certain, uncomfortable situation with a bus driver today, that made me decide I need to pass on my feedback to the bus company. It wasn’t actually a complaint, at least I didn’t mean it like that. I just wanted the driver to be alert that he needs to relax a bit and…

Allegations vs facts
If you have a proof allegations becomes facts. Home Group tweeted me yesterday and I cannot believe that I wanted to genuinely forgive them! I thought that they see my perspective and want to make it work somehow but they Were hoping to bribe my diagnostician to get her to convince me to sign that…

Autism, kindness and social anxiety
I just joined local Facebook group for ladies who want to make new friends, but I have no idea what to do apart from that to actually meet someone I could become friends with. It seems to me I’m a terrible judge of character, or at least females character. What doesn’t help is that I…

Further reflection on work and personal relationships
Yesterday evening, after I was made to think about how I will feel if a resident displays challenging behaviour, I at some point told myself ‘this is just a job, you need to keep emotionally detached’ – I tried that thinking for a couple of minutes but finally realised that all I’m doing is trying…

How to be considerate of others
I was reflecting today on why I become a different person with different people and I came to conclusion that’s how I understand the advice that ‘everyone is different and we need to be considerate of others’ or that we ‘need to give people space to be themselves’. It does seem to me that people…

How to become the same person at work?
The lady from the bus stop yesterday also said that I need to give people time to make up their mind about me. It does seem to me that together with ‘do your job and don’t let other people bother you’ (please refer to my previous post) it means I need to become the same…
