- 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.
Earlier on I ate 1 slice of cheese on toast cut into 4 little squares and ate it up my table with an orange-handled knife and cyan-coloured fork. 2 hours after masticating the first mouthful (when the food had been digested) I tested my blood glucose again with my shiny blue and grey blood glucose TrueYou monitor and it read 7.4. Since then I ate a tiny toasted streaky bacon sandwich made with 1 toasted slice of Bloomer crusty white bread and 1 halved into two pieces rasher of streaky bacon of which I dribbled HP brown sauce and Heinz Tomato Ketchup over. My next blood glucose test is at 5:00 Post Meridian British Summer Time.
