    • whether that’s uni, starting a business, cleanliness, whatever: deadlines are a part of life. Don’t take them too seriously, because the only ultimate one is actual death, but still
  • learn to tidy AND learn to clean
    • Anyway you can, anyway how
    • These are the skills that truly prevent self-neglect
  • I bet you’re a better cook than I am!
    • If not, start out with baking
  • Embrace your own personal form of brilliance
  • Learn to use some form of AAC
    • A big part of PDA is the language aspect, and AAC helps all humans communicate
    • even if it’s just a ‘I’m ok, I’m NOT ok’ wristband – you’ll help all your interpersonal relationships
  • Learn to be ok with your own company, and learn when you’re getting too intense about one specific person
    • No one loves being the focus of a special interest/a favourite person – not even your partner
  • Forge your own paths, please: we’ve all got ways to shine.
