Small daily habits move the needle for autistic brains: exercise, predictable routines, outdoor time, sensory kits, and scheduled decompression after masking. Not self-discipline. Nervous system science.

"It’s as simple as asking someone what their needs are and then providing an accommodation."
Dr Hayley Passmore shares a striking example of how neurodiversity-informed practice works in the real world. By identifying a sensory aversion to a dish sponge, prison staff were able to prevent behavioural incidents with a simple £2 dishcloth.
When we support sensory and developmental needs, we create better outcomes for the whole community.

Living with autism or ADHD can feel like navigating a maze—sometimes frustrating, often overwhelming, but also uniquely inspiring. 💭 I've found that our minds are incredible, bursting with creativity and insights.

I just published a new article on Medium: “Craving Fire: Autism, ADHD, and My Unusual Appetite for Taste”.
It’s about how I live the intersection of AuDHD, sensory processing, and food — why I crave bold flavors, avoid water, and constantly seek the new. -

Whew! cold-induced brain short-circuits are *NOT* fun! Finally getting back to normal after trying to switch out trash bins--and that was around 2 hours ago! @actuallyautistic

Restless, reactive, or overly sensitive?

.@v_weilnhammer @PhilippSterzer &co show that humans & mice fluctuate between external & internal modes of #SensoryProcessing, and that this generates unambiguous #ErrorSignals that enable optimal inference in volatile environments #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/46W641Q

In order of all writing easiest to hardest of these 3 it's
1. Arial
2. Courier3. Times New Roman
Where my preference will flip as courier holds the top spot if I'm reading a story/emotional vs a scientific/technical piece which is where Arial is tops.
Times New Roman is probably the most common & gives me the most headaches &/or confusion in getting through, especially for longer reads.

Was wondering why so many supermarkets have started playing music in the background, as it triggers my #ADHD #SensoryProcessing
This product roadmap update from #Tesco #dunnHumby explains it all, along with a preview of forthcoming horrors...

I hate that my brain, when I'm having a feeling or an internal reaction while listening to another person, shuts down all the other channels--listening, seeing--to receive that impression or feel that feeling.
All the other data drops out. As if it never got recorded.
I might catch a key word here or there, or remember a fleeting instant of an impactful facial expression, but it's all broken apart spotty bits like that from there on forward. I often have to reconstruct how those disjointed pieces flow in a coherent statement or narrative later, based on contextual clues and the general gist of the conversation.
I miss so much precious, important-to-me information in my interactions with people I care about because of this phenomenon.
🤬😤
(TL;DR I hate that I can't have a feeling and continue listening to you at the same time.)

Children need to feel safe 💗
"Instead of focusing on eliminating [challenging] behaviors we need to provide children with signals of safety."

Understanding #Autism helps me understand my #ActuallyAutistic self and how I interact with the world.
This review discusses how #SensoryFiltering affect #SensoryProcessing and eventually the whole #Autistic person.
This is technical, and written in a language that's not ideal [e.g. "individuals with ASD"]... but informative.

I spontaneously start whistling when there is a lot of noise around me, as a way to reclaim my own sound space and keep control over what i hear, i guess. It's mostly misinterpreted as joy, and it's very hard for me to complain about the noise because of it…

That sound when a match ignites? It's the aural equivalent of a very brief, yet intensely satisfying head scratch. 🔥

A little #accomodation tip for my fellow #neurodivergent people and those with #SensoryProcessing issues that has been a game changer for me:
If you love the design on a t-shirt but hate the way it feels around your neck, just cut out the collar. Go slowly, use good scissors, and leave about a half inch margin from the collar. I like to go deeper at the front for a sort of v-neck effect.
If done carefully it looks fine, and you can enjoy that cool shirt without the sensory misery! 🥰
