Why Coming Out as Autistic Was Harder Than Coming Out as Queer and Non-Binary

It’s inevitable. At some point every one of us sits down to write content, from a social media post to a full-length book, and it happens…We sit and stare at the blank page… sometimes for minutes, other times for hours, and occasionally for days.So then, how do we overcome ‘blank page syndrome’ to fulfill timelines, obligations, or merely to finish a piece of content.Rather than pull out our hair (maybe this is why my editor has none…lol) let’s take another angle and break down four ways to (hopefully) never allow this to happen again.By no means is this an exhaustive list, however having created content, writing books, publishing articles, and simply even my own blog, there are many tips and tricks to avoid writer’s block, blank page syndrome, the abyss of the white screen… or whatever else you want to call it, there are four tips that stick out the most.Here they are.It is nice to find that comfy place to sit and write. We spend time creating our own office space, so why not use it.

Each one of us has a community that gives us a sense of belonging.

The ultrasound tech said the doctor would explain afterward. The tech would take pictures of the baby, while the doctor reviewed the images in a different room. I watched the tech’s expression while I leaned back on the stiff hospital chair, jelly sliding on my round stomach. She clicked in silence, images froze on the screen. Clouds, a dark blob. The baby’s heart, she said. She only looked calm, and I tried to relax, reminded myself again of the odds that the doctors told us, that everything was fine. 

Bullying is a major problem that affects both kids and adults.

Best Bach Flower Remedies for Social AnxietyI’ll be honest – at first, when I was taking Bach Flower Remedies to help me deal with my severe social anxiety, I doubted their efficiency. I was taking them for a few weeks and my social phobia didn’t seem to be fading away. I also took the Rescue Remedy during a state of panic in a social situation and it didn’t change anything for me.So why do I still think Bach Flower Remedies are one of the best choices to help heal social anxiety? After a few weeks of taking a personalised mix of flower essences for social anxiety, I had a very bad day.

“Your anger? It’s telling you where you feel powerless. Your anxiety? It’s telling you that something in your life is off balance. Your fear? It’s telling you what you care about. Your apathy? It’s telling you where you’re overextended and burnt out. Your feelings aren’t random, they are messengers. And if you want to get anywhere, you need to be able to let them speak to you and tell you what you really need.” ~Brianna Wiest

Are you about to start a business in California? Then you need to make sure that you have done your research when it comes to starting your company in the state.

I woke up this morning only to wish that I didn’t. Every day, when I first open my eyes, I forget. I forget the pain. I forget the monotony. I forget the amount of effort it takes for me to function. I forget I’m chronically ill. In those first few seconds of the day, I feel light. I feel whole. I feel free. And then, all at once, the heaviness pushes down on my chest. Nothingness becomes everything. Now, I lie in bed dreading the day. I lie there debilitated by anxiety, depression, and discomfort. The thought of rising even to get dressed is too intimidating. Only five minutes have passed and every ounce of energy I have is already depleting.

Valentine’s Day is a timely opportunity to practice gratitude, contemplate our most important relationships with others, and spend quality time with those we love.

healthy goal because you are trying to better your life. But you shouldn’t set it because you don’t like who you are, and you believe that goal will change you. That goal is set because you have a desire, and you are trying to fulfill it.

I’m sure, by now, most of you have heard of ACEs, otherwise known as adverse childhood experiences. The term was first coined by the Kaiser Permanente health care organization in Southern California and referred to any incidents in childhood that may result in trauma or any other type of difficulty. To us, with our 2022 sensibilities, this seems obvious. But into the mid-1980s, the connection between emotional experiences and health was seen as unscientific. It was downright pseudoscience. This means there were so many generations before our own that believed their emotional experiences had no impact on their health. That makes all the holiday arguments make a little more sense, right? However, now we have an almost universal understanding that our experiences can shape our emotions which can create real change in our biology. And that experiencing adversity at any point in life, particularly in childhood, can impact health outcomes long-term. 

Most of us set our resolutions and wellness routines based on what we think is good for us, but our astrological signs can tell us a lot about what is actually good for us. Most of us know the basics of our signs, and maybe reading about your sign even helps explain why you are the way you are.

The term “victim mentality” refers to people who blame someone or something else for the unpleasant things in their life.

When we envision raising a child, it can be exciting to see their new minds adapting to ideas, concepts, and the world in general. However, when you are raising an old soul, their minds are far more complex, and they seem to pick up on things and understand things that are far beyond their capabilities.An old soul is someone who is wise beyond their years. In a child, it may be confusing to a parent at times that their child is able to understand the things that they can.

Birds and the bees. This phrase is as old as time. We all know what it means. It’s the phrase a parent says to their teen when teaching them about sex. It is necessary to discuss, despite it being difficult. However, autistic teens sometimes seem to be left out of this talk.

Recently, a tweet by an autistic mother of an autistic child went viral — and sparked a necessary conversation about accommodating neurodiverse people.  In her powerful tweet, she shared that her son struggled to tie his shoes, so rather than subject him to behavioral therapy to force him to learn how to lace his shoes, she simply bought him shoes without laces.  The tweet has garnered a variety of supportive responses from autistic adults — nearly all of whom reinforce the idea that people on the autism spectrum should not be forced into meeting arbitrary “neurotypical” milestones.
