How have you dealt with your autism? - The Challenge of Autism.

Pilling people up on psychiatric drugs is one of the many reasons I believe America is a shithole nation. Pills should be among the last resorts for treating autism, not the first.
Looking back I wish they hadn't, it's done things like limit my ability to travel, but that said there's the chance you end up like Chris if you don't, so I'm torn
 
One thing I am trying to do is limit the amount of time I spend online, particularly on Youtube. I'm way too prone to binging and I've realized its making me miserable and cutting into other activities.

Struggling to stay calm when I feel so uncomfortable. But always observing and adhering to standards often from commentaries on autistic where people are giving them constructive criticism so I can manage myself better in public space and not appear to be a burden to anyone but always taking criticism when I have done something wrong to make sure any mistake would never happen again. These methods on keeping myself sane, connecting the dots, having as much less contempt and being open minded as possible and acknowledging my flaws actually works pretty well for the most part. Writing those standards to me feels like putting a checkpoint on my life so I won't fall into the darkness.
