For this last week of autism awareness/acceptance month, on Wednesday April 23, I will be posting a video talking about autism meltdowns as an adult. I’ve been hesitant to talk about this for a few reasons. The number 1 reason is because of the judgment that surrounds us autistic adults who still go through meltdowns/breakdowns. The second reason is I just don’t like to paint autism in this bad light. But if I didn’t discuss this, well, I wouldn’t be being very honest with myself or with anyone else. I’ll be talking about sensory meltdowns and emotional meltdowns, and how they’re not tantrums.

We just hung up the Corinthian bells from ‪@windriverchimes‬. And I absolutely love it! I have quite a few wind chimes from Koshi wind chimes, to a couple other smaller wind chimes. But this is one of the larger chimes. Wind chimes have such a relaxing musical sound. I love using wind chimes in my music. This Corinthian bells wind chime will be going in our yard, along with some other projects for the family, that will most definitely be full of great sensory.

On Wednesday, April 16, I will be posting a video that I feel is rather interesting. I’m going to talk about autism and the love for gameshows. I find it fascinating how many neurodivergent people have such a HUGE special interest in gameshows. My husband and I are completely blind and autistic, and we LOVE gameshows. I have to admit, I’ve always been a Wheel Of Fortune and Jeopardy kind of girl. My husband would also watch those shows too, but he was more of a The Price Is Right kind of guy. I have some amazing memories of my past of when I would watch gameshows, and we’ve developed new favorite gameshows over the years. And yes, I’m 100% positive neurotypicals love gameshows too.

This Wednesday, I’m going to upload a video that I feel like a lot of people can relate to. Dealing with sickness as an autistic person. Sicknesses such as a cold, the flu, and other every day sickness. But if you also have a terminal sickness, this video is also for you too. I feel like a lot of people will relate with what I will share.

I’ve been watching this channel for almost a year now. I absolutely love ‪@SixBlindKids‬. All of the children are congenitally blind, meaning they were born blind. With 0 light perception. And some of them also have autism. I can relate with a lot of their videos. Please give this channel some love. They’re so close to one hundred thousand subscribers. And I commend them for spreading awareness on individuals who are congenitally blind, along with the other comorbid conditions of being congenitally blind. This is something that often gets missed, dismissed, or just not talked about as much. People with conditions and disabilities are capable of so much.

Ablism is something that happens a lot. Especially with those with physical challenges, and those who are neurodivergent. You may hear people say things like, “you need cured. But you don’t look autistic. I don’t think you should be a part of this because people will not want to have you in their group because of your appearances.” Or, they look at you being neurodivergent or having a physical challenge as a disease. I’m here to tell you, those ablistic comments don’t help us. They only harm us. Every person is different, no matter what they have or don’t have. It should be up to the individual person on what they want in their life. It shouldn’t be up to the world to ell us how we should live our lives, how we should look, how we shouldn’t be autistic or blind or whatever you have. It shouldn’t be up to someone else to tell us that we just need to be cured and then we will be all better. That should be up to the person themselves. But at the end of the day, self love and self acceptance, as well as being understood is the thought that counts. Doubting someone’s conditions are even there, or saying that they’re just a burden on society because they act different is never the answer.

Today starts autism awareness/acceptance month. Every Wednesday of this month, I will post a video discussing topics related to autism, and I will share my experiences with these things. Autism is never something to be ashamed of. Love your quirks. Love your uniqueness. Stim and be ok with it. Envelop yourself in your special interests.

For autism awareness/acceptance month, I will be posting videos on topics related to autism. The first topic I will cover is sensory experiences. This was inspired by the recent YouTube creator collab I was part of with ‪@autisticjenny‬. I will post the video on Wednesday, April 2.

Next week is April, which is autism awareness/acceptance month. These past 2 years, I’ve done a video each week in April talking about topics related to autism that a lot of people can relate to, along with my experiences with it. Be on the lookout for a video each week during the month of April discussing topics related to autism. Also, be your true autistic self. Stim, engage in your special interests with lots of love and passion. Embrace your quirks. Embrace the truth. Understand yourself rather than trying to fix yourself.

Lately, I’ve been getting into this YouTube channel called Ok Ausie. Dyan, is a lady with autism and a few other conditions. I seriously relate to some of the struggles Dyan faced as a child when it comes to autism and meltdowns. I relate to the childhood trauma when it comes to being shamed for having meltdowns or feeling intense emotions. Her husband, Matt, is so amazing. I love his genuine patience and calmness when he helps Dyan through her struggles. My mom and my husband do their best to help me through my struggles. I’ve really been enjoying watching their content.
