An Anxious Autistic Me, Aging

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2020/09/15

I’ve always been anxious. I was probably born anxious. Is that an autistic trait? It seems to be one I share with most autistics I meet.

Autistic Me, Making Others Uncomfortable

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2020/09/02

The most-read blog post on The Autistic Me discusses the research on autistics making other people uncomfortable almost instantly. Dozens of research studies replicate the finding that autistics, something about us, instantly makes other people apprehensive, uncomfortable, and anxious.

Pondering the Pandemic

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2020/08/25

The pandemic has taught me that I would like to continue teaching online or working remotely, homeschooling our daughters, and limiting errands to the essentials. I'm sorry this has hurt so many businesses. I do empathize with the economic suffering of others. But, I don't imagine we'll be rushing to get out and about in a year or two. The Autistic Me is quite comfortable at home with my family and our large collection of books. Thank you for listening to The Autistic Me Podcast. I am Christopher

Why I Love Tech

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2020/05/09

Autistics often find technology easier to deal with than people. Some prefer animals, some prefer music. I like things that are predictable and follow rules. https://www.tameri.com/autisticme/ https://www.facebook.com/autisticme/ https://twitter.com/autisticme

Difficulties Sleeping

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/11/11

Getting to sleep and staying asleep are difficult for me and many autistics. A parent asked me for advice, but I'm still trying to find my own solution to the challenges of sleep. http://www.tameri.com/autisticme/ https://www.facebook.com/autisticme/ https://twitter.com/autisticme

Driving as The Autistic Me

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/10/28

Driving requires a lot of cognitive focus, which isn't easy with constant sensory input. Autism complicates what some people take for granted. In the United States, driving can be nearly essential for education, work, and medical care. http://www.tameri.com/autisticme/ https://www.facebook.com/autisticme/ https://twitter.com/autisticme

A Need for Order and Routines

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/10/15

My theory is that a need for order and predictability corresponds to a desire to reduce cognitive overhead. I seek to control my workspace, my spaces at home, and my belongings. I don't seek to organize spaces that are not mine, unlike some of the OCD individuals I know. Your space can be messy - but not mine. You can use whatever pencil you want - I'll use my favorite brand. http://www.tameri.com/autisticme/ https://www.facebook.com/autisticme/ https://twitter.com/autisticme

Parenting

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/10/02

My wife and I are like other parents: unsure of ourselves and doing our best to be good role models. If there is something different about being an autistic parent, I'm not sure what that might be. Note: Forgive the quality. Recorded in an empty room in our new house with horrible echoing.

Scott on Education

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/02/09

I am not a success. I am not an academic inspiration story. I could write a book about my experiences as a student and educator. I’ve started just such a project several times, and each time I’ve decided it isn’t helpful since it is one failure after another. There’s a lot more to say than what follows, but it’s enough to remind people that education is no better than any other path for an autistic individual. I’d argue education is difficult for any disabled person. Higher education is particularly

Daniel Sansing on Theory and Teaching

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2019/01/23

Daniel Sansing discusses his interest in writing and communication theories. Sansing studies academic composition and teaching composition courses. The myth that autistics are only concrete thinkers dismisses the uniqueness of individuals. Yes, some of us are concrete thinkers... and we can still study theories, too. I study rhetoric and writing, but not first-year college composition, which is a course designed to help students transition into higher education.

Missing Obvious Health Signs

Perspectives on Neurodiversity ·

2018/11/01

Do autistics have more health problems and injuries? I believe so, based on my experiences. It is difficult for me to notice warning signs that might alert neurotypical individuals. With sensory overload, new inputs are ignored or unnoticed because we process so much input. When we don't "hear" what our bodies are trying to express, we end up with medical emergencies.
