What's your safe food status?
Autism Support / by memyselfandmoth

...See more --What foods have you been enjoying lately? If you're in a rut or losing taste for something, maybe we can offer some suggestions here that would seem okay to try! 💕 Lately I've been really leaning on frozen steamable veggies and instant rice bowls.-- (If you or your family are struggling with food insecurity, I want to put it out there that you can sometimes find deliveries from local organizations/churches in your area by looking online, that have incredible humans behind them just looking to help, some may even take preferences. Just wanted to put that out there.♡)

⭐ Saturday Chat! A Special Interest/Good Things Thread 🌀

June 13th
...See more Hey-hey everyone! Wishing you all a lovely Saturday. Moth is here this week to get a weekend tradition rolling, hopefully of a chat thread where we can all participate in some fun and unique discussions that help us to remember the best things in life! Firstly, I'd like to lay down some brief, general rules for these threads to keep it a positive environment: 1) non judgement, (we listen and we don't judge,!) someone just posted that recently to the forum and I love the saying. Don't judge others special interest. If you don't like it and they haven't specifically asked for feedback , let's just keep it movin'. 2) avoid triggering items,/shares here. We are here for you in this forum, 100%. Here to listen and support. Here, though, let's keep it light so that it can serve as that space when you need some uplifting. 3) feel free to post here anytime throughout the week,not just Saturday, and support others shares when you can ❤️ 4) This thread is not meant to be patronizing or belittling the struggles of autistic people esp right now. I'm making it because as an autist, I know right now I need some light-heartedness more than ever. With that being said, please feel free to share either descriptions, gifs, personal photos (make sure no personally identifying information is included and that it's appropriate,) or just fond musings about your favorite special interests, the items associated, and just general good things. Some ideas include: Hobby items General favorite objects Blankets Stuffed animals Your pet Favorite foods Favorite perfumes/sprays/candles or home goods Beauty products Music Books Headphones, favorite albums Etc, etc! (I so look forward to checking back on this, and I have to get started on my own submission now! Take care, hope to see you there! 👇) ⭐ - moth

Forum Supporter Intro: MeMyselfAndMoth
Autism Support / by memyselfandmoth

June 6th
...See more Hi!  Making this post to officially introduce myself as a forum supporter, specifically here for the autistic community on cups! I am honored to do so. I am an artist, homebody, cat owner, and chronic pain-haver with AuDhd. I've been through a lot. Cups has been huge for me, for comfort, for connection, and for growth. I found it at the time I needed it most, and I genuinely hope that cups does the same for you all.  Please feel free to reach out to me with questions, issues and suggestions. Reply to this thread with any ideas you may have! I want this to feel like a supportive, fun, helpful, yet calming place. This should be a space where you feel supported and seen. Often, that can be difficult in our day to day, but it shouldn't have to be that way.  As I said, let's make this a thread for ideas, intros, questions, etc. I was thinking it would be lovely to do a picture-thread with everyone's art, special interest objects, et al.  Have a wonderful day. ❤️ Thank you for the opportunity to support.  - moth.  (⁠✿⁠ ⁠♡⁠‿⁠♡⁠)Ƹ̵̡⁠Ӝ̵̨̄⁠Ʒ/⁠ᐠ⁠。⁠ꞈ⁠。⁠ᐟ⁠\ 🦋

...See more Doctors have been zero help. It hurts so much. I'm isolated and alone because of these conditions and the most they've ever done for me is mock me and largely made things much much worse. I'm just venting but it's getting very hard and I know at this point my loved ones are very worried but I just keep to myself, grin and bear it because I know how useless trying to get real help has been for me. I'm not sick because I'm depressed; I'm depressed because I'm sick, and even more sick at the lack of help for conditions like narcolepsy, cfs/ME, and the lack of good quality research esp for AFAB and autistic populations. The injustice is hard to bear. I wouldn't wish this on anyone except maybe those who write off the chronically ill and disabled. It's gone on too long. /Rant over

Dreams of Exclusion

May 31st
...See more Lately, I've been accepting hermit mode in a rather intense way, and it's showing up in my dreams. I've been sleeping during the day mostly. At night, I feel more free to be myself and the pressure feels lessened. I feel that my passion and purpose in life is largely tied to my art; lately though that line of thinking is feeling threatened too esp because I've been feeling very unwell and extremely fatigued. Just wanted to see if anyone can relate. I'm just so tired of pretending and tired of the pressure, the 'potential' conversation, and those unwilling to understand or accommodate autistic people in the world. If you can relate to me or if you're simply having a hard time, I wanted to post this to say you're not alone. I'm going to keep trying though, and I know you can too. Feel free to use this as a vulnerability thread and challenge yourself to let people in this community show up to support you below 👇 Will be wishing everyone well. ●⁠♡ moth Ƹ̵̡⁠Ӝ̵̨̄⁠Ʒ 🦋
