The autistic urge to pack everything you own and bring it with you whenever you leave your home. You might only be going to the shop/mall down the road, but you’ll be prepared for an apocalypse.

@AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic when I studied geology, a teacher called me “Pelle” - in reference to a children’s book character in the form of a Pelican bird, who could pull anything out of its beak.
This was particularly apparent when we went on field trips. Always prepared for anything.

At home, I have a bag/purse that is always packed with what I think I can’t live without.
It’s more stuff than most people would consider necessary.

@AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic actually, come to think about it, I might have taken this aspect if autism to the extreme. I have a caravan/camper trailer that I in all seriousness bring for when we are going for visits that require a sleepover.
I literally bring my own little house, and I live it. It’s homey and comfy, it’s solar powered and has a shower and a toilet, kitchen, seating area and double bed and tons of cupboards for all my stuff.

It's so weird - since I realised I'm the ways I was masking have become more and more difficult.
I unmask a lot when alone now (cPTSD meant I masked a lot even alone) but I struggle more and more to mask around people too - which I guess is good but feels hard and unfair on them.

@alexisbushnell @actuallyautistic I feel like my unmasking gets ignored a lot.
Recently my mother in law kept pushing, even after several attempts on my part to disengage.

Then I just end up getting very angry and lash out - and then feel bad afterwards for my bad behaviour.

I never feel quite sure if I’ve communicated my wishes in an understandable manner or if I have read the situation or the other person’s intentions correctly.

It’s a big mess and I hate it.

I just watched the first episode of “Silo”. I never read the book, so can’t compare, but the show is quite good.

@jerry it just gets better.
loved the book(s) and loved the show. Can’t wait for next season.
