How do you cope with changes to your body? I've gained weight recently and I feel like being autistic has made it so much harder to be ok with it... I just want everything back the way it was :(
Omg I feel this. Change is very very hard. Even changes in my body.
It might seem weird but I take some extra time to myself when my headspace is in a more curious and open space and I explore and get to learn what the change is. Study and acquaint myself.
Then it becomes the new normal.
I sat in from of the mirror the other day not to judge but to to learn and it was really helpful and fruitful. I walked away feeling much better
