Example: I have an “autistic af” bumper sticker on my car so that the cops don’t think I’m doing something shady because I don’t want to make eye contact.
I wouldn’t rely on a strategy that requires cops to read.
Got myself an sleep mask and weighted blanket for bed. Helps me sleep so much better.
But also, when I notice I’m building up to a meltdown, I tell my wife “I need to hide for a few minutes”, go up to the bedroom, lights off, mask on, weighted blanket on, earbuds in, and just block all stimulation for about 5 minutes. Usually prevents any meltdowns.
Being in a walkable neiborhood so I don’t have to drive a car just to go to the grocery store lol.
Permanent work-from-home is my favorite. My weirdest was getting the fluorescent light above my cubicle turned off.
