I had to take my community cat to the vet today and she was absolutely terrified on the drive over. It broke my heart. She got the treatment she needed (she has asthma and a puncture wound) but I can’t get her terrified face out of my brain. I’ve never seen an animal look that scared before and it is tearing me up inside. She kept panting and meowing and it seemed like she couldn’t breathe and she also pooped out of panic. Any words of encouragement or advice on how to get her to trust my house again would be greatly appreciated♥️ she seems to still trust me because she came up to me and let me pet her, but she won’t come near my house anymore

Hi! I just got diagnosed with autism a few weeks ago and I wanted to ask if other people have experienced this thing that I experience!

Yesterday I was at a festival and it was super hot and loud and I felt like I couldn’t think of a single thing to say to the people I was with. Sometimes I feel outgoing and bubbly, and other times I feel like I suddenly can’t think of a single thing to say or don’t understand what’s going on around me as well. Like I don’t really get what people are saying to me. Is this a part of autism? If so, how do you deal with it?

P.s. I also have ADHD and OCD
