    That’s the “why I can’t do it” part.

    But if it was possible to get knobs and buttons for everything and a small-ish screen only for info, I’d take that. I’d pay for that. Touch screens are dangerous. I’d at most be comfortable to swipe on the screen to show different infos like GPS, temperature/airflow, music/radio. Otherwise I want buttons and knobs with little lights.

    Hi! Not the same person but I’m in the same process!

    Firstly, take it in steps, don’t quit all processed food at once. I actually started with eating more veggies, both in the food and as a side salad.

    Then read on the products, not all processed foods are equal, and it depends on what more you have in the meal. On meat products I often look at the meat percentages, it can vary A LOT. A sausage with + 80% meat is a lot better than 30%…

    You can also look for E-numbers, concentrates, and other additives. How good or bad these are are still being discussed but I’m leaning towards bad, especially if it’s a lot.

    For example a highly processed sausage with basmati rice and a decent amount of salad isn’t the same as said sausage with just mac and cheese.

    –

    Some meals are easier to prep than others but more often than not I’ve found meals, especially the meat, to need time. Time to cook properly!

    • Fry meat in a pan, let it simmer in water for half an hour or so ( I rarely keep time ), make a sauce in the pan.

    • Or put a chunk of meat on a oven safe plate and trow it into the oven on 150-175°C for 1.5-3h or more depending on size and tenderness.

    • Or make a soup, just make sure it boils long enough for the meat! :)

    This! A lot of people seem to forget that in order to get a diagnose it has to cause a disturbance in normal life. Myself included, as a late diagnosed autistic person.

    Coping mechanisms are like adding cotton around the spikes (aka. struggles) of the diagnose / disorder. They do not remove the struggles but instead make them less visible. But if you push enough on a spike it will eventually push the cotton away and the spike with be more prominent.

    Most people have small spikes that don’t cause a lot of trouble but may make the person say they have a bit of [disorder]. But it is not a disorder as they don’t have loads of comping mechanism and a disturbance in normal life. It’s just a normal human variation.

    As a nonbinary person who still feels a bit unsure, THANK YOU for this long, well written answer. I’d give you gold points but idk if that’s a thing on lemmy.

    I’m AFAB but I very often wish I could be included in the mens group, you know? I don’t really feel a desire to be part of a womens group tho. In many aspects I don’t really relate to many of those expectations like dressing up, makeup etc.
