I used to overthink what I did in presentations and interviews by developing a rigid structure for how everything should go. Being more flexible has eliminated most of the challenges I used to have.

More on the Amygdala ⬇️

The Amygdala is a small, central part of the brain that triggers warning signals in your body, which create fight-or-flight responses. Autistic people have been linked to having an overactive amygdala.

Finding the right career path is all about being aware of your strengths and challenges, experiencing different things and making plenty of mistakes to learn from.

Recognise the areas where your child requires the most support and make sure the schools you look at can match these needs. You’ll then be able to make the right choice.

A big thank you to Creased Puddle for giving me the opportunity to be a training associate again. It’s always enjoyable to see that everyone involved in the training learns something new about #neurodiversity. It was also great to catch up with Angela, Geoff and Ashley again.

More on support for autistic children and adults ⬇️

Getting your autism diagnosis is only half the battle won. Another, and arguably even more critical, part of an autistic person’s development is the support they receive.

Having an autism diagnosis can be beneficial for your self-development and self-awareness and give you opportunities to showcase your strengths.

When small talk is going on all around me, I can feel the pull to take part instead of showing my true personality. Therefore, I see making small talk as a form of masking.

Both autistic and non-autistic people need to meet in the middle and make compromises to shift the focus from autistic challenges towards autistic strengths.

There’s a lot more complexity involved in being respected, as being kind and respectful to others reflects your inner values and exudes self-confidence, rather than your desire to be liked.

Luxury surroundings relax me as they are designed to please the senses and prevent me from having sensory overload.

What distracts me the most when I’m trying to tell a story is my environment with its different movements and noises. By closing my eyes, it blocks all of this out and I can focus.

My workout timetable ⬇️

#WorkoutMotivation #FitnessGoals #MentalHealth #Autism

[Callum L Gamble - Autism and Neurodiversity @CallumGamblePro]

Physical exercise has reduced my meltdowns and
shutdowns considerably. It releases endorphins, which are the hormones that help to relieve pain, reduce stress and improve your sense of well-being.

More on body language ⬇️

#Autism #AutismAwareness #Inclusion #Neurodiversity #MentalHealth

[Callum L Gamble - Autism and Neurodiversity @CallumGamblePro]

The most important lesson I learned through studying
human behaviour and non-verbal communication is that reading people’s body language is much more important than listening to their words.

Don’t overthink trying to please others. Instead, do what’s right for you, make peace with it, and self-validation will eventually become an intrinsic part of you.

To improve your self-esteem, focus on and value your
strengths, be open about your challenges, listen to your
intuition and find your way of being productive.

I’ve always wanted to do everything as independently, well and fast as neurotypical people. Recently, I’ve taken a step back and accepted that I do things in my own way. This has brought me a lot of inner peace.
