Two autistic people talking
Ok, so another myth in autistic community is that two autistic people will not have any communication problems, and I really don’t know where that came from. I guess two autistic people may find it easier to form an initial connection but that doesn’t mean there will be no misunderstandings between them. Just yesterday I […]

Good mental health and creativity
So, as stated here multiple times, my blog is to record how I’m thinking and feeling. It’s been two weeks now since I started my digital detox (and approximately 10 days without Facebook) and my mental health and energy levels weren’t that good for ages. I also haven’t been working the last two weeks, but […]

A very good woman
I just finished watching ‘A good woman’, a film with Helen Hunt and Scarlett Johansson, I commented on an interesting conversation from that film here https://autisticandme.com/2022/05/08/it-depends-on-the-imagination/ It turned out it was a good movie, one that teaches us of the importance of not jumping to conclusions. Also the fact that it had so many characters […]

It depends on the imagination…
Sorry for the quality of the photo – I was watching a film on Amazon Prime but it turned out I can’t make screenshots there so I got this from YouTube. It’s good enough to ilustrate my point, I hope. I also hope I’m not committing a crime here – but if I am, I’m […]
