Wonderful writing. ❤️ Just returned from a trip to visit our autistic person not far off 30 .I would like to tell you balancing needs of various autistic family members becomes more straightforward but . .
I wrote a short piece for Grazia about autistic parenting… and it ends on a more hopeful note than the headline suggests! If this resonates with you, you should check out the fantastic charity @autisticparentsuk.org and also buy my book. uk.bookshop.org/p/books/all-...

Clyde Fans A Picture Novel by Seth.
Better World Books.
Clyde fans hardback in beautiful case. All the way from Fairhope Public Library withdrawn. I could have bought from here but love the magic of resale from ex Library USA.
Beautiful dog.
It appears that the decision to not mask at all is a very unwise idea for a person with complex history.
X You too.
People,many people will be relieved to know I am appearing less raging mad and more settled autistic person in last couple of weeks.
Sending love to friends here from old place and some wonderful new friends who made me so welcome when I arrived in a flurry of mad autistic wild person a few months ago. Happy Christmas. XX
Merry Christmas XX
I am liking that such is being commissioned now .Progress rather than words.x
It was just the name that put me off.
That is very good news then .
In general medical care the team would at least have a more supportive name.
Hospital avoidance team that is new dire name.
That is dreadful honestly so rubbish sorry.
I had anticipated.So wasn't even surprised. My appointment was partly going to be please don't discharge me as it appears if nothing else I am finding this whatever it is helpful in thinking about idea of self care.
The support of a helpful psychiatrist. Helpful psychiatrist like many people I suspect sick today. I managed with appointment cancelled. It appears what is helpful is having access to support if Dave needs it .
You know it’s bad when even Fox News is reporting it
Goodnight Jennifer ♥️
Masking autism is minimizing or hiding your physical traits of autism. Like learning how to minimize your stims or not talk about your special interests.
Internalizing autism is what happens after you mask (sometimes, not always)...
Sending all the best.
A photo of the front cover of a book, "Improving mental health therapies for autistic children and young people" (Routledge, 2024). Next to it, a page from a sample chapter, "Something needs to change - Making Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services accessible to autistic children & young people and their families", by Ann Memmott
So excited to receive the physical copies of the book. With more thanks to the fabulous Editors and fellow writers.

Friends will be pleased to know the glasses.I bought online while not knowing which part of me ordered function very well as reading glasses and are less Two Ronnie's than the trial pairs.
The John Lewis Christmas advert obviously not intended for this autistic person. All I focus on is the fact if our big kids were going to buy vinyl record for Christmas they certainly wouldn't buy at John Lewis indeed I am advised it isn't sold there.
