Understanding your emotional needs is key to staying regulated.
When you know what supports your well-being, you can better manage stress and prevent burnout.
It’s not just about unmasking, but about truly caring for yourself at a deeper level.

I keep noticing a pattern in one of my Talmud shiurs.
I often read sugyot as questions of harm, honesty, repair, and moral courage.
Others in shiur read the same text as procedure, authority, and financial mechanics.

Joseph doesn’t become whole in our parasha.
Not even close.
He doesn’t suddenly integrate his trauma and break the cycle that’s been happening for generations.
He doesn’t reckon with the harm he causes, even as he (barely) names the harm done to him.

Healthy autistic friendships feel calmer over time, not more chaotic.
If every autistic connection ends in overwhelm or rupture it’s not because you’re “too autistic.”
It’s because no one taught autistic pacing.
