I want unlimited choices
It is said that autistic people get overwhelmed with too many choices and quite frankly, this is not my experience at all. Does it mean my autism is ‘mild’? Well, not necessarily – it can mean that either I don’t share this particular trait or possibly even that autism research are flawed. Recently me and […]

Coping with unexpected events
I read an article today about an autistic girl who just started school and her mum asked the teacher to always explain to that girl at the beginning of the day what is going to happen, so that she doesn’t have to cope with unexpected events as those are stressing her out. And I thought, […]

Latest pattern creation
I guess sometimes it may be easier to add my pattern in a separate post, instead of adding them as illustrations for posts about my emotions. It feels to me like, if I include my pattern images to be part of my posts, they should somehow reflect the emotions I write about and it gets […]
