I can handle myself if i dont have "little" things but i do get upset. Some of the things I need are: Number 9 seat on the school bus Same route whenever i go somewhere Same seat in class (except in one class bc seats change every week so i expect it) Same exact order at restaurants Bath/shower at a certain time everyday
But, you should be able to cope and adapt for not being able to have the “little” things from time to time as some factors may effect some of those things. Make sure you find healthy and appropriate coping strategies in those situations.
I'm diagnosed Autistic so trust me when I say this: No. We do NOT rely on our routine comforts like we rely on food or water. We would literally die without food or water. Without our routine comforts, we are anxious and/or annoyed. Those are not the same outcomes. The fact you can't literally tell the difference really makes me wonder if you even are diagnosed, or if you're misdiagnosed. And, yes, I am a woman. And yes I am aware that Autism often looks different in females. But it doesn't look this different. People like you are making things HARDER for us. Stop being entitled and dramatic. Accept that some are going to think you're weird. Accept that some are not willing to provide your every comfort. You, and I, have no right to demand others cater to our every whim. We must learn to adapt.
No need to try and "undiagnose" someone. How would you like it if someone came up to you and accused you of faking? It's a useful video informing Neurotypical people of how autistic people perceive the world. And ultimately, it's no issue for a neurotypical person to accommodate someone's seating preference, seeing as their emotional state doesn't nearly rely as much on it unlike an autistic person
Autism is a spectrum disorder. Routine comforts for some autistic people are very important. I’m autistic, I don’t feel that my routines are that important but I know some feel differently. Autism is always different in every case. And how do you know she isn’t diagnosed? She makes jokes about autism assessments, I think she’s been diagnosed or at least tried to get a diagnosis. How can you say “stop being dramatic” when she’s talking about how she feels? How can you say that? You’re talking like a neurotypical, no offence. BTW not trying to “undiagnose” you I know that’s wrong and invading on your private life OH WAIT.
everyone's experience with autism is different that's why its a spectrum. as someone also with diagnosed autism i do rely on little things like this. its your experience not anyone else's.
Except the fact that autism is something we have since we are born, maybe even earlier (most likely earlier) and we struggle our WHOLE LIVES and it never gets easier and we never magically get better. We act like victims because the fact is that’s what we are. Society was not made with us in mind. They never think of us. When we ask our neighbours to turn down the music because we may go into a meltdown they say “stop acting like a victim, music isn’t a big deal” and loudly purposefully slam the doors in our face. Thats why we can rely on certain things to just get through our day.

They're touchstones. Of course we need them. Everyone does. Neurotypicals just like to pretend they don't need it like we do.
The breakfast thing is so real!
Yes Indeed 😊

You need to stop acting like a victim.
You will magically get better if your life requires you to due to hardship.....
