- I have Asperger Syndrome which is an autism spectrum condition and a full diagnosis of Adult ADHD which are characterised by impairments in social communication, social interaction and social imagination. I also have a rigid and somewhat unpredictable routine. I also experience obsessive rituals, some a bit overwhelming. But I have a talent in articulate creative writing skills and possess a photographic rote memory. I have sensory sensitivity and get upset by loud noises, bright colours or lights, and notice the texture and consistency of certain foods more making my dietary choices extremely limited or restricted to certain food components. I dislike conflict and lies. The Adult ADHD also makes me very moody and cross.
My silly decision to eat some devil-carb rich meat pies that a friend with a mental health disability called Colin gave me resulted in my blood glucose reading hitting 17.0 mmol/L. I made the wrong decision but I didn't want to hurt his feelings as he bought them for me out of the kindness of his heart. I'm very worried about my blood glucose being this high. I'm worried full stop about having diabetes. And I've been worried sick about @ickihun and @eldergarth, too. I love them unconditionally and I'm going to light my prayer candles for them tonight and pray for (a) a good result of @ickihun's hospital scan and (b) a relief for my lovely friend @eldergarth's pain and affliction. Love and cuddles to you both, guys!
lots of love, johnny the aspie and a profound soldier in Christ xXx.
