I think I recovered
Around a week ago I posted on my blog that I decided to recover from my mental health issues and that thought was triggered totally by the doctor decreasing the amount of olanzapine on my prescription. And guess what? I think I did. Funny thing, isn’t it? As you may know I had two psychotic…

And what is social status for?
The Friend said my theory about employees fighting for social status by getting bitchy may be right. I suppose she knows, just doesn’t want to confirm that with me directly? But then I’m thinking, what is social status for? I suppose so that other staff treated them a bit better, but how far that can…

Do people fight for social status?
I called The Friend and she complained about situation at work, saying there’s a lot of spiteful people there. She kept asking why people do those things because she never does. And in fact she doesn’t seem to be like that at all. It is being said a lot that the atmosphere at work depends…

Sleepless in Seatle and what I learned from it
I just finished that film. It was very popular in Poland when it first came out and for a few years later – I’ve heard it being mentioned countless of times but I never got to watch it somehow. Well, I did now. It was a good time filler for my digital detox – well,…

Why getting permanent job may not be an option
As you may be aware I’ve lost my job a bit less than a year ago and unemployment was what inspired me to set up my blog. At the beginning I wasn’t very clear on what to blog about, I thought to focus more on direct advocacy but I’m glad I found my niche. There’s…

I’m getting curious about other people
I just came back from my first shift after my sick leave. It was a small care home, I was there before but worked with all different staff today, which I still found somehow refreshing. I kept reminding myself throughout the shift to play an introvert and it was going ok. During the break I…

Public speaking for autistics – part 2
I kept thinking about what problem it is that I have with that mini speech for today event and I realised that, like with probably everything, I classify verbal communication by features and this way public speaking really is to me like speaking to myself but with an audience added and if I keep practicing…

My joke rooms
It’s not very often that I can be really creative with my use of patterns in Redecor, the room requires a specific set up for that and no preselected materials. It did happen today though and I thought I’d share my results with you. Both rooms cost me some virtual gold and a few star…

I feel like I’m the same like other people (something really changed)
https://autisticandme.com/2022/03/24/other-people-have-the-same-experience-as-me/ Ok, I said in the morning I may have a break from blogging, but I just realised something extraordinary! I was just reading a blog by an autistic influencer on Instagram (I’m not really sure Instagram is a good platform for blogging, but this is irrelevant) and I found a post about how autistics…

I’m considering taking a few days off from WordPress
Although, obviously there’s something to say every day. However, on some days it may be more difficult than on others. I read an article on BBC today about damage and crimes caused in Ukraine by Russians. The description of events wasn’t very detailed, but it didn’t need to be. A woman in her 50s was…
