I’m in a waiting area in a cancer centre in Ottawa and so many employees are not wearing a mask! 😡😡

Comment est ce que vous faites pour savoir ce que vous devez faire en premier entre ce que vous faites et le repos ?
Quelle est votre méthode ?

Si la question est mal posée, dites moi, c'est important pour moi parce que l'enfant bute sur ce sujet. Ca la fait gamberger et déprimer.

Edit : Qana a reformulé par "comment prioriser entre repos/loisirs et obligations" ?

Je précise, le souci de l'enfant, c'est pas la fatigue, c'est plus la difficulté à savoir quoi faire ds quel ordre et pourquoi ?

@ciredutempsEsme Étant autiste et ayant eu un méchant burn out autistique je privilégie le repos avant tout. Et si je dois sortir pour un rendez-vous ou autre je me repose avant et après.

Pour les obligations ça varie bcp selon mon état, mais j’essaie d’appliquer la règle lue je ne sais plus où qui est de se reposer au moins 2 fois plus que la durée de la tâche. Par exemple, un truc qui m’a pris 10 min., nécessite 1 repos d’au moins 20 min.. Et diviser les obligations en petites tâches aide.

    Meditation has been suggested to me two times in the last days. I like this article by a neurodivergent author.

    #ActuallyAutistic #neurodivergent

    “For autistic and neurodivergent individuals, know that there are as many mindfulness practices and ways of being as there are ways of thinking. Find practices that work for you, make the modifications and accommodations that best serve your needs, and believe that you too can find a little ease and calm in your world.”

    Not me over here crying (happy tears) reading the email my psychiatrist sent me that includes a long list of medical accommodation recommendations for me. (Leaving this intentionally vague for now)

    Accessibility matters SO much. 💜

    I am proud of myself for asking her to do this for me — I almost didn’t due to past trauma.

    Tomorrow I have the follow up appointment with the surgeon following the January 5 mastectomy and I’m hoping that he received the results from the laboratory to know if it’s invasive or not. And I don’t know how I’m going to deal if it’s bad news being alone here with my husband.

    No cancerous cells have been found in the lymph nodes. But a very small number were found in the tissues of the breast removed so it’s done for this time. Such a relief knowing that it was effectively a non invasive cancer.

    Next step is to talk with the oncologist in an another hospital about hormone therapy to minimize the risk for the other side.

    I can’t say how much I’m thankful to everyone for your support. You are amazing. ❤️

    I finally @ everyone in the Autistic Mastodonians Discord server to get people talking in there again.

    Bunch of us are chatting in my autistic discord server today.

    It's set up for autistics from Mastodon, so we can have a place outside of Mastodon to chat.

    There's special interest channels and autistic topic channels.

    If you'd like to join us, here's the link:

    @stephanie @fennix I don’t suggest anymore to my learners (I teach French) to practice by watching French movies with subtitles because since a few years the subtitles are a summary of the dialogue and not anymore a written transcription. 🤷‍♀️
