Don’t want to accept the pain

@Jynx I haven't been on much lately, I have been a bit scattered lately, so did not know what to say. I feel so scattered, I can't even form sentence right now, not sure what happened to my ability to form sentences

[Jynx]

Swimming in overwhelm maybe @creative_writer ? It's okay to need a break sometimes!! I totally understand that it would feel suuuuper frustrating not being able to communicate how you'd like to... but hey I always got time for nonsense, if you just wanna word vomit at me without any pressure for it to make any sense or anything... just a vent space and a listening ear!

[creative_writer]

@Jynx maybe a listening ear would help. I’m getting sensory overload from itchy ears rn. Just put some ointment in them, I hate creams in my ears, but you gotta do it. My mind was super scattered during my therapist appointment this afternoon. I did feel restless last night, maybe I need sleep. Though it was probably my fault, I shouldn’t have been shopping last night 🤦🏻‍♀️

@creative_writer aye soooo many medicines are very sensory-unfriendly hey. There's a reason I take all my vitamins in gummy form now!! lol 

Aye lack of sleep definitely contributes to worsening of ND traits for me as well!! That and like, you might wanna consider where you are in your monthly cycle, cos the hormone changes also mess with everything!! I feel like I'm always about 30-40% MORE neurodiverse when my period arrives 🤣

Oh nooooo late night impulse buys? The bane of my existence 🙃 Did you end up snagging anything good?

[creative_writer]

@Jynx itchy ears are not sensory friendly either. I wear a lot of bamboo clothing to deal with the sensory issues.

We are currently driving to a family friend’s house. So I’m dressed up, I hope these clothes don’t irritate after me some time. The little bells across my forehead feel nice and cool. I am easily amused.

I did end up buying active leggings and tank tops

[Jynx]

@creative_writer ohhhh fingers crossed for sensory resilience tonight!! 

Love little bells, how cute!! Haha you know, people say to me all the time, 'you're so easily entertained!' 

And they say it like it's an insult... but all I can think of is like, 'well, at least I'll never be bored!'

Hope you have a nice evening hun! 😁

[creative_writer]

@Jynx the bells feel so cool, I just hope it doesn’t feel heavy over time.

I don’t have much to do now I’m here. I’ll probably be on the forums

[Jynx]

Oh true @creative_writer lol you just along for the ride? 

If they get heavy, will they fit around wrist? 

[creative_writer]

@Jynx the bells are attached to my hat, I would have to take the hat off and adjust the scarf

[Jynx]

Oh true @creative_writer  - do you wear a hijab? I can imagine it would definitely be more effort to rearrange if so!!
