I Always Wanted To Learn How To Dance Ever Since I Was Little But When I Asked For Classes They Said

Hi everyone,

I got an inbox asking to share some tips for financing when you’re autistic. I found a helpful guid from the National Autistic Society:

Budgeting

The first step to managing your money is to work out a budget and stick to it. Budgeting will help you:

* keep track of what you are spending

* help you to avoid going overdrawn on your bank account by spending money that you don't have

* decide whether you can afford to buy something that you would like

* deal with debt by planning repayments that you can manage

* work out how much money you may have to save. 

Bank, building society or post office accounts

Most people now have one of these types of account. The benefits of these are: 

* it will keep your money safe

* you can pay bills more simply by direct debits or standing orders

* internet banking is now widely available. This reduces the need to visit banks and other services that autistic people may find difficult

* benefit payments can only be paid into an account

* you can have a debit card, making it easier to pay for purchases and you can shop online 

* you may be able to earn interest on the money you have

* you can pay bills by direct debit or standing order, which are sometimes rewarded by a reduction in what you pay for services

* you can use your cashpoint card to access money easily from cash machines in the UK and sometimes abroad

* your bank or building society may be able to give you an overdraft or loan.

Debit, credit and store cards

There are a number of different cards that you can use to make a payment. These include:

* cashpoint and debit cards

* credit cards

* store cards.

Borrowing money, making payments and debt

It's easy to think of a loan or overdraft as free money, but it’s actually expensive as you have to pay back the original amount plus interest. Try to only borrow money when you need to and repay it as soon as you can. There are many ways of borrowing money, including:

* borrowing money from family or friends

* having an overdraft

* taking out a personal loan or secured loan

* applying for a credit card.

The full article will be below, as it goes into more detail. I hope this helps many of you.

National Autistic Society

made a guide for this

Double dose of FAT BETA SAFE PORN ASS. Dose NUMBER 1. Always make sure you are consuming the right amount of porn ass a day. Without it, you may experience withdrawals, and even symptoms of depression and anxiety. Use fat porn ass to distract yourself from the sad reality that you will always remain PUSSYFREE. 😏 - J🌸

It happens a lot at work and at least I have one friend who can tell when It is building up and let me go calm myself down some and I always apologize a lot afterwards.

I have a short fuse when it comes to things like this. They’ll be too loud or something and I’d snap and tell them to stop…

Less a question but more of a thank you for interacting with my content ❤🐧

Yall don't have to thank me for liking your content, I should be thanking y'all for making the content

Oops all serious, yea standard dni stuff

Oh it's no problem ;3

I'll take care of you since you're struggling after having just moved out, I can be the big babysitter that helps keep you in line ^.^

It's hard stepping out into the world and living on your own, isn't it?

Oh no, it's okay~ Don't you worry~

I'll take over ;3c

I'll show you how fun it is to finally be a true grown up ^.^ *I'll* be the grown up, and you can just do as I say so you can watch and learn~

Nooooo~ It's not taking advantage~

You hired a babysitter, I'm in charge of the dummy :3

I mean you're obviously a dummy, who asks for a babysitter at your age?

Now come over here, I'll show you what "taking advantage of" really feels like~

It really is a shame you can't tell anyone all the disgusting things I do to you because it would only make You look bad~ It'd show everyone how pathetically malleable you are ^.^

How you gave in and obey my every word and I didn't even have to try~ You offered to pay me for this! You came to me and asked for this help!

How embarrassing ^.^ Far too pitiful to admit~

Now. Get on your knees and put that mouth to a much better use than all this talk~ Your babysitter has had a long day and deserves to relax after putting up with such a dummy (=•ω＜=)

I need someone in my life that would call me a good girl

I don't know if this goes with any of the reasons you gave but I also think all of them have a problem with asking for help

The main six all have autism,and heres my breakdown as to why I think that:

Fluttershy has pathological demand avoidance.

Favouring people- some autistic people can develop an extreme and borderline unhealthy attachment to those we cherish most,or look up to most.

This can make us overly dependent,make us overly emotional and clingy. We can react extremely negatively to being "cut off" from interactions with our favorite person,and that usually causes self destructive episodes or cause us to be destructive to others.

Rainbow dash,pinkie pie and twilight sparkle have developed "favorite people"

They have gone to great lengths to mimic them,spend time with them or to appease them,to live up to their expectations.

Anxiety- autistic people are more prone to anxiety due to the overwhelming stress and trauma of inhabiting a world that is hostile to those with disabilities. We are also more likely to develop anxiety due to social situations where we misunderstand social interactions,or social expectations.

Stimming- pretty much all of the main six exhibit stimming behaviors

Special interests- the main six have a rich array of obsessive and passionate behaviors/interests.

Preferring to be around other species,rather than their own kind- fluttershy much prefers the company of her animals,she seems to spend most of the time around them because she understands them and their needs and body language better. She enjoys caring for them,kept away from the stressful demands of other ponies.

Shyness or extremely extroverted- all of the ponies exhibit these two behaviors in their own varying degrees

Creativity,spontaneous bursts of creativity but difficulty with mainting the level of skills required to complete demanding tasks- some autistics struggle with creative projects because we thought we had the skill sets required to finish the projects in mind,but we currently do not at the moment.

This can cause us extreme stress and subsequently meltdowns,burnouts or shutdown. The main six have had experiences where they "bit off more than they could chew" so to speak, and experience distressed and a sense of shame,feeling like their best wasn't good enough,so why bother trying at all?

Rarity and rainbow dash and even twilight especially demand perfection of themselves,going to great lengths to prove their worth and show off. Ultimately causing too much stress.

Being confused by sarcasm,figures of speech or how people feel by them(being confused as to why not everyone automatically accepts and approves of them,and wants to be friends with them or each other)- their are multiple examples of this between the main six,throughout the show

Unusual manner of speech- fluttershy speaks extremely softly and timid. Pinkie pie is overly excited. Twilight can have a very disorganized manner of speech, when in mania.

Rarity speaks like she's from another time period.

Emotional outbursts- the main six have all struggled with controlling their emotions at times throughout the show,acting erratically and having wildly inappropriate reactions to things due to high sensitivity or being so prone to misunderstanding things.

Magical thinking- some of the main six exhibit unusual thought patterns/patterns of logic

This is something that is very common among us autistics.

Infodumping- they all do this. Need I say more?

Tldr: these ponies are autistic,and there's nothing you can do about it.
