Autism, Life and Learning

Lets do this one out of the gate, as you are more then likely going to hear this the whole way through. I HATE SPEAKING ENGLISH! 😤 My first language was BSL, British Sign Language, so coming from a non-verbal form of communication to English is like doggy paddling to swimming the English Channel😨. BSL has very little grammar and well... English is full of it🙃. You have words that are easy to say like to, but this comes at the cost of the what meaning does it mean. I know that in different places of the UK have accents and with this comes lots of different words that have different or new meanings. Did you know that BSL also has accents, its the same words just signed differently. To this makes more sense. Also I normally don’t call people by their names and almost never will whilst processing because if I had talked to 5 Alice’s and 10 Bens and processed them all the same then I would lose which Alice and Ben I talked to about what😓, so i...

Hey everyone, I know this has taken a while.  I am still going through the process so I will keep updating this post as I go through it.   Before I go any further I should say the PIP stands for Personal Independence Payment. This is a benefit that helps people with any form of additional needs to be independent. And now prepare for an onslaught of stupid decisions and pointless reasoning  So, PIP has been a bit of a pain. There were some things I have spoken of; like the 30 minute ‘interview’ when it took 3 days for me to get diagnosed with autism.  Also, the questions or should I say the answers to those questions are just silly.  Example: how far can you walk taking into account any aids you use? A) less than 20 meters B) between 20 and 50 meters C) between 50 and 200 meters D) 200 meters or more E) it varies. So, they haven’t said where you are walking to. They haven’t given any issue of how hard walking could be. They haven’t even sai...

Firstly this won't be a normal blog as you can tell by the title. I am still writing my PIP post and the Netflix account decided not to work on my laptop or my laptop is on strike- either one.  This is why I am doing this on my phone. So it shouldn't be too long  before any issues get sorted. So what I am going to do is say what I am going to talk about shortly. Then what is happening at the moment. So I am going to talk about in the next coming weeks. -Pip - making changes - Names and languages - why me (should be an interesting one) -Fandom - and of course my reviews of atypical. Thank you for reading I am not going to leave any links but please look at some of the post and please say what you would like to see.
