Thanks for your shared experience and tips :) I followed a few of them, like Introspektion everytime I realized I feel stressed or rushed or pushed to anything. It worked out quiet well. I also changed my working habit to evening / night time when it was possible due appointments. This way I created timeslots during the morning and afternoon to have enough energy to meet up friends or getting shit done Iam pushing way to long around. When I saw friends as explained them about my autism behaviours and what my plans are right now to reduce overload. They all react with a lot of understanding and asked theirself if they could do change anything on their behaviour to support me.
All this gave me the setting to accept me more and helped me to do the work in the evening with a more or less free head, cause I had everything I planned for the day done already
Working during night was sth I ever loved but gave up by time cause of external demands and so it became standard routine. For me, the biggest advantage of working late is, there a mostly no interruptions of Mails, calls, chats or workmates. So i can completly focus on my tasks, what makes me more aware of what i am actually doing or needing. Plus i was full of ressource cause I could follow myself during the day, like I normally do afterwork. So whoever can manage to shift worktimes and struggling with those things, should give it a try IMO.
As we have a birthday in our shared flat on saturday, i felt yesterday like needing time for myself to leave the week behind, so yesterday evening I took me time, explained to my girlfriend, that Iam feeling stressed of the week even as it all went out quiet well and to save energy for the birthday party and try to avoid a shutdown on sunday or monday, which was alright as always. She gave me the space i need since day one. Now after 4 years we manage to build a save zone where we can really talk everything and sharing even the deepest thoughts and moments with each other.
All together I had a great week which I wanted to share :)
Wow! Thank you so much for this ressource. I recently experienced a shutdown a couple of days ago. The whole idea of me as an autist person is quiete new for me and came along by my psychotherapist, who mentioned this to be possible in a sentence beside. Since then I started to watch me and my behaviour from an other perspective and found a ton of symptoms of being autism too. In the past I often had this feeling of a shutdown and or meltdown and could never tell what it actually was but really really bad mood and anger about each and everything. Only my dog was “okay” to be there in those times, as long as she only did keep an eye on our surrounding for our “safety” from the perspective of a dog.
Anyway. Thanks a lot for posting this video, it helped me to identify possible triggers in my daily routines
I am running a cloudron server for me and my friends and thought linkwarden might be available for it but it dont. I gave xbrowsersync a try and thats exactly what I am looking for. I use it with FF Plugin now and it event auto tags the links. Thanks a lot!
