Posted @withregram • @prismic.autistic Sharing this infographic I made after my second COVID vaccination, as I prepare to get my booster shot later today. My body’s reaction (body aches, chills, and headache), while normal and expected, was a bit of a rough ride. I hope this can help others in some way! Text in post reads: Autism and COVID 19 vaccination. Autistic folks tend to have sensory processing difficulties which include being sensitive to feeling unwell. Things that can help: Reduce/eliminate responsibilities for a day or two. Gather things you’ll need: Tylenol Ice for headache Plenty of water Foods that take little or no prep Cozy clothing or pajamas Any sensory comfort items Plenty of blankets Distractions, if you find that helpful After your shot: Get plenty of rest Stay hydrated Remember stimming can be a powerful coping tool Remind yourself this is only temporary, and so worth it in the end! #ActuallyAutistic #AutismCommunity #AutisticCommunity #ActuallyAutisticAdult #AutisticMemes #AutisticParent #Autistic #Autism #AutismAcceptance #AutismAwareness #AutismSpectrum #AutisticPride #AutisticAdults #Neurodiversity #Neurodivergent #Unmasked #SensoryProcessingDisorder #SPD #AutismAdvocate #Disability #Disabled #DisabilityAdvocate #DisabilityRights #AutismEducation #CovidVaccination #CovidVaccine #RedInstead #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs https://www.instagram.com/p/CXyq3pTFSUmEpxYcbFL5tpnUhxumPfLGd00iks0/?utm_medium=tumblr

I don’t know what to think about @siamusic movie Music. I don’t think it portraying anyone who has autism not to mention us girls with autism well. I feel like its Stereotyped us Autistic community and not in a good way. #ActuallyAutistic #autismacceptance #AutismAwareness #Neurodiversity #autism #autisticgirls #asd #autisticcommunity #neurodivergent https://www.instagram.com/p/CKD74YeM5TZ/?igshid=1io20mdmlu1jz
