Sometimes a smile helps

Raw and real life is not always pretty I share some thoughts on what I’m dealing with and what it feels like after a meltdown.
This is my experience, this may not be the experience of every Autistic person, and I am discovering how to express myself and my experiences.
Apologies for the crackle in the back of the audio I think that was due to me holding my phone.

Thanks for sharing 😊 I agree forcing a smile can be helpful at times. And don't be bothered by the analytics, if making these videos is helpful to you that's all that matters friend 🩷 I'm looking forward to a cardboard bed review, I've been curious about them.
