Marriage with autism
​
My husband and I have had a lot of discussions lately. I am diagnosed with autism and he knows that since we met. But since we are married (1 year now) and live together, he is sometimes annoyed about my stiming or that I am too childish.
I collect hello Kitty's and unicorns and love watching cartoons but I had a job before and I know when I need to mask and act like an adult. I can drive one my own (at least with breakdowns after 😔)
I just have the feeling that since we are married everything has changed, before he was really supportive and understanding.
Yesterday he came up with the idea that I should not wear headphones anymore outside. Because I should get used to the noises 😬 And even when I try to explain him everything calm, that my brain is not working like that, he just thinks I am not trying enough.
I don't know what I should do. Or if I am just overreacting because it was always my nightmare that I will marry someone who doesn't understand that side about me.
Thanks for any advice 🖤
