@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me Sure would help matters if I could answer half of these questions.

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me Like the old joke goes; you can do anything, once.

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me the one time I tried to get some accommodations it was around volunteering at a VBS as part of paid ministry time at my Christian employer at the time. It was “only” half days of volunteering so they expected me back at work in the afternoons, but I knew from past experience I would be useless the rest of the day, and wanted to use my full week of PTO to cover the recovery after as well.

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me I often feel like Captain America - ‘I can do this all day’ - as long as I ignore the body blows…

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me Is it sustainable?

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me Totally agree. I managed, over the Bank Holiday weekend to do a music festival, doing 16+ hour days, busy and active days. Absolutely full days, poor sleeping (in a tent, I don't sleep well). So I can do it. Because it is enjoyable,, I get a lot of positivity out of it. But it takes me 2-3 weeks to recover.

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me This is precisely why I'm not at work. Yes, I could go fix a computer. I'm very good at it. Can I do it repeatedly? While dealing with social situation of a client? Day in and day out? No. No I cannot.

@theautisticcoach@neurodifferent.me Good questions/considerations. Same questions I ask myself as I age, without autism. Currently staring at the 50+ year old skateboard I use for moving big heavy things around the shop and considering hoping on it. Nope. Same questions.
