Autism, Life and Learning

This week has been an odd week. I have done the Atypical review, which I’m hoping to post every Wednesday or Thursday. From then I will post on here every Sunday. I have done some participation for helping CAMHS, I have done some teaching; which was brilliant. It was nice to teach my wonderful sport that is C1. I also met up with a wonderful friend. I have also figured out with some deduction that I may have passed my End of Module Assessment that I have  passed it, as I got ask for feedback about my module at 4:30 in the morning- I wasn’t impressed.  I will hopefully start typing up the reviews next week. Today I went back into my old C1 it was fun, to be back in it. My old C1 is an older boat, its a Nelo Vanquish mk1, so it was made somewhere in the 90s and most C or K boats usually last 10-12 year, some usually 5 years. So my canoe is a little old. I also found out that my old canoe hurts... well when trying to fit my foot board back on. I kinda cut my finger from my nail ...

I have had quite an odd week. It hasn’t been quiet but it hasn't got quick either. So I helped do some volunteer work at one point I had to travel up to Barnstaple, which about an hour and a half away from where I am. It was interesting, but I definitely got tired. I could tell by one reason- ⚠Phasing⚠. Phasing is a term me and my parents used when I skip between different ‘realities’. So it was fun seeing the road on the way home disappear then reappear and then turn to grass. I don’t really have this issue now, as I can usually control it. At one point I thought the world it was in was 2D, really didn’t help I was next to Ikea . The best thing I can do is sleep but trying to sleep with you have really weird things happening around you. I can see some people thinking about what is the difference between that and a meltdown. It is pretty much as simple as phasing is quite an odd and rare trait to have meltdown happen to pretty much everyone. Also with a meltdown, the world ei...

I swear I have just had a bad week. As you can tell by the title I haven't really had a good week. I lost track of reality for the whole of this week, I didn't even realise it was Sunday in till around 2:30.  There should have been a blog on Tuesday, so it shows how far out I am. On Tuesday I got to help teach some medical students, mainly about mental health but also about autism. Hopefully, I made a bit of an impact. Wednesday I don't even know what has happened had a catastrophic meltdown and completely forgot what I did that day, same with Thursday. I don't which day it happened but I lost two days.  Friday, me and my parents went into town. I nearly had a complete verbal outburst in the middle of the high street. I had someone in trying to get promote something, I watched him earlier he tried to use the thing to draw people in. If you want to laugh please do, to try and bring me in he said "YO! Dude," this didn't work so he tried to follow me a c...
