"Not everything is about your autism."
Actually it is. My autism effects:
How I see the world, including light sensitivity
How I interact with the world, including difficulties with social interaction, speech difficulties and processing disorders
How I feel the world around me, including hyposensitivity or hypersensitivity to temperature, pain, or stimuli as well as proprioception which can make it difficult for me to physically navigate the world
How I feel my body, including interoception which can lead to missed meals, dehydration, and even urinary urgency (which is a problem just by itself) because I don't notice the signals my body gives
How I relate to those around me, due to my alexithymia, so often I feel nothing or can not work through the bodily sensations that indicate emotions.
How I cope with the world, including needing to stim, escape noises others may not hear, or requiring accommodations to help me survive an "average" day
How I rest after a normal day, including delayed sleep onset, reduced melatonin and increased cortisol, making getting to sleep a 2 hour long endeavour and staying asleep a task unto itself
So yes.
This is all about my autism.
I'm gonna do my posts from now on like those girls on Tiktok who went viral for a random video and now try to ride the 15 minutes of fame for as long as they can.
Ok here it goes
they won't tell you this in therapy but sometimes the best way to stop catastrophizing/anxiety is to interrupt your spiraling with "girl what the hell are you talking about"
