Another YouTube channel, some of you probably might already be familiar with, Hunter from ‪@Imagination_lives‬ . His content is so relatable. I first met with Hunter when I did my interview with Claire from ‪@WoodshedTheory‬ and we hit it off from there. He’s the reason why I changed my channel name to The sensational Sienna Price, because he always calls me that. And after finding the meaning of sensational, it’s obvious why he calls me that. Hunter is so nice and caring, helpful, humorous, and is just a good friend all around. If you haven’t already, check out his channel, and be sure to subscribe.

Here’s another YouTube channel I recommend. ‪@dringavlogs8120‬ . Her name is Skylar. She is completely blind from birth, she’s autistic, and she has a chronic heart condition. She loves words, and she loves to use them in her own creative ways. She also loves to give herself goosebumps by rubbing things like soft brushes on her skin. This really made me feel happy, because I love to do the same thing too! It’s one of my calm down stims, but it’s also a way of sensory seeking. She also loves to collect kids’ toys, which I also love. If you can, please check out her channel and show it some love.

I wanted to share this channel. It’s called There’s no such thing as normal. She has the same rare brain condition that I do. Septo Optic Dysplasia. She’s completely blind and autistic like myself. I absolutely love her channel for a few reasons. One, I relate to what she has talked about when it comes to being blind and neurodivergent. Two, I LOVE her channel name. It helps me to pause, and rethink my thoughts when I’m having days where I want to mask and blend in and be “normal” so that way people don’t judge. It makes me think, “wait a minute. Hold on. What if there’s no such thing as normal? What if I just embraced who I am instead of trying to fit in all the time?” Three, she plays the piano like I do. I feel like we have a lot in common. Please give this channel some love. I love spreading awareness about rare conditions like this.

I’ve decided that after I get through with sharing my series of all the toys that I collect, I will be taking a very long break with uploading videos. I will still continue watching my favorite content creators. This year and the tail end of 2024 have been very interesting for me, and I’ve been dealing with hard struggles with my rejection sensitivity. So, I just need some time to process everything. I’m sure I will be back though. I’m going to share a few more things in my community, and I will be sharing the rest of my toy collection. And after that, I’m going to walk away for a bit.

Heello. I know it’s been a minute since I’ve posted on my community. A lot has been going on. One of the things that’s been going on is I’ve been outside getting sunshine and enjoying the nature. So being on social media hasn’t been all that important. I was just curious, does anybody else have a special interest of collecting vintage toys that play music? I’ve started a series where I’ve been showing off some of the musical toys that I collect. And sharing the stories of my past with them. I was scared to do something like this, but I’m glad I challenged this. As an autistic person, I do truly find something so cathartic as being a child at heart. However, I do find myself masking this trait, and I try to bury it due to fear of being told that I’m too old for that. But I feel like making and sharing videos of me playing with these toys and telling the stories behind them is a way of challenging myself to unmask that part of me and embrace it. And realize that in this case, age is just a number.

I’ve been really thinking hard on this topic lately. And I know a lot of people are going to really relate to what I’m about to share. Hyper independence. I feel like a lot of people struggle with this due to many reasons. Childhood trauma, being neurodivergent plus childhood trauma, the list goes on. Maybe, you tried relying on others or your accommodations, and were wronged and shamed for it. Maybe you were struggling and tried to speak up about how you were bothered by certain sensory input such as loud noises, bright lights or certain textures. And you were rediculed for it. So now, you only rely on yourself, struggle to ask for help and support. You now are afraid to even accommodate yourself, so you just take away the accommodations altogether and force yourself to stay in situations that are triggering for you. You’re not alone. This is quite more common than you think. And it is a hard thing to overcome, but I’m 100% sure it can be. I’m still working to find ways to overcome my hyper independence.

Traveling can be lots of fun, but also, it can be very challenging. Especially for those who are on the autism spectrum. For me, being that I have other conditions along with autism, traveling can be challenging. Not just vacations, but also in grocery stores and other simple places sometimes. Routines are thrown off, new changes. Even if it’s a place you’ve been to, even if it’s once in awhile, there’s still that angst of not knowing what to expect, hard times transitioning to places that wouldn’t regularly bother you when you’re at home. Home can be very safe for us because we feel safe enough to be ourselves. You’re able to have the routine you’ve created. This is why having accommodations when traveling or going out. Tomorrow, I will be posting a video of what accommodations I bring with me when going out.

Two awesome things are happening this Memorial Day weekend. Starting today, at 11:00 AM Eastern Standard Time, EmJ from ‪@zebranothorse-EmJ‬ will be premiering a video of where she asks an autistic 5 questions. And I was the person she asked 5 questions. And then tomorrow, I will be featured on a monthly creator collab on ‪@autisticjenny‬’s YouTube channel. It’s so nice to connect with other individuals that have things in common. But it’s also ok to have some differences. We’re still super squeaking awesome!
