Thank you so much for writing this and sharing it - I would definitely want to hear more in future posts! I see a lot of myself in what you're sharing, and wow, perimenopause definitely complicates things for sure!
Feeling grateful and teary. Thank you for sharing with this community and I hope it does you as much good as it does those who read your story. It is helping me understand my son better, as a bonus. Sending every good wish for continued healing to you.
All I have to say is congratulations! A diagnosis that says "well you are "crazy" but that's ok because we now know what kind." And also subscribing to social model of disability, it's not our fault we don't function well in this dumpster fire of a world. Welcome <3
Perimenopause is a special kind of Hell for my Autistic self. I'm so glad you have been able to get a diagnosis and thank you for sharing this. I feel a lot of camaraderie as someone who loves to collaborate with others, but has had that thwarted through misunderstandings and people taking my need to explain in great detail as proof of my unwillingness to take things on board.
So grateful for this share. I didn’t even find any typos. 😂 Your experience will help so many people BUT most important YOU. 💜 Grateful for you, your voice and your heart.
Teary recognizing me and my AuDHD family in your sharing. So grateful you are caring for yourself in this way 💞

The hormonal changes of perimenopause absolutely wreak havoc with sensory issues and executive functioning

Thank you for being so vulnerable while at the same time sharing so that others, myself included, can build resilience to navigate this world.
