I'm still awaiting my autism assessment but I do know for certain I do have a lot of autistic traits . Fingers crossed I won't be waiting too much longer.

I have tried herbal stuff in the past @Catherine21 , I have such a sensitive gut that even herbal stuff makes things even worse. I really have to be very careful what I take. Sending gentle hugs your way 🤗. Please take care 🙂

Yes, this has been the case throughout my life. As a child, I was often labelled as a 'fussy' eater, but as an adult, I am still considered 'fussy' and also experience a number of gastrointestinal issues.

I have to avoid things that have probiotics and stuff, I also do better with vegetables, a lot of fruits my body just doesn't really like that much. The ones it doesn't mind, I don't like, so that's interesting! I'm good with most veg though. And I cut out things with artificial colours and flavours though they're less common now which I think has helped me. I know they debunked some of the links between those and hyperactive behaviour but I actually did have that reaction as a kid to some of them.
I was a much pickier eater as a kid, and I was taken to the doctor when I was eight or nine and tested for diabetes for some reason as well…I don't have that. But I have always eaten relatively normally overall. I did have a doctor get quite unpleasant with me about my low BMI when I was in my twenties…I hovered around eight stone for a long time, even though I was eating normally.
My BMI is totally normal now, I just wasn't able to put on weight when I was younger. Even now I don't really put on that much, I've just, thankfully, got to a point where doctors no longer make sniffy remarks and blame my weight for any joint issues or nerve issues I have…
The big issues are the stress triggers we all seem to deal with, which impacts all kinds of functions (fight or flight). And these are inconvenient since they can be caused by very small things that other people don't perceive and thus it can be hard to explain…1 -
Good night everyone. Take care.
