New interest path:
"having increased
perceptual capacity can allow more effective processing of the
necessary information and, consequently, superior task performance (Remington, Swettenham, and Lavie 2012). 1/2
"Autistic people w/ intellectual disabilities shared experiences that are suggestive of increased capacity, similar to previous findings of increased capacity for autistic people without intellectual disabilities."

Lights are too bright, the sounds are too loud, the fabrics too rough for ALL of us.

I've spent over 3 months researching #catfountains, with the question of whether it's really necessary always floating near by. Only to now order one with nearly no research on the spot. I wonter is this a common #Audhd battle or just a Jess thing. I've repeated this pattern many times before.

I told my family that I will need to take 2hrs on my own this Christmas day. I hope it is accepted on the day as well as it was when I said it. 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Cat walks will be need for my sanity and their happiness.
The holiday season can be difficult to navigate, especially if you are Autistic

Thank you for sharing this, 😊
I'm currently trying to think of everyday examples that would help explain this in simple ways.

So if anyone has any idea of ways, examples or metaphors that might help explain the difference in perception, id live to hear them.

Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work.

I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.

📌 There is also a version on my profile of my Film "When I grow up I want to be" which has no music for those who would like to watch it but find background music a barrier to #accessibility. I am the opposite and find music helps me explain and explore better.

Here is a poem which I wrote while waiting for the train after my first day of being back in college.
