My autistic brain is in tune with your autistic brain. Christmas is tough - but we’ll get through it. Perhaps we should have both asked for noise cancelling headphones for Christmas.
We will! This is my first year of actually know I am autistic, so I feel like only now am I realising why periods of disruption (like Christmas) have always been so hard for me, and trying to be kinder to myself for not living up to NT standards.
Sorry to hear you had difficult Christmastimes growing up. I've opted out of the family secret santa this year (bah humbug) and we stay home on the day to have a cosy day in together. I'm all about the boundaries for our collective stress levels. I hope you have a good leadup to the day and that you all have lots of time to relax. xx
I switched to 'Christmas at home' in 2020 and the last few Christmases have been the best of my life, it's so nice just being in your comfy space and enjoying the day at your own pace! Hope you all have a fab xmas at home xxx
