Autistics have a hard time moving on. We are often stuck in time. Fixations are common for autistics . Everybody has a song, a film, a concert, that marked their life however, it is easier for neurotypicals to move on, whereas autistics tend to get stuck to the first impacting event in their life.

Neurodiversity is evidently a ‘requirement’ in the show-business… whether real or staged, what role does Entertainment play in mental health? I was deeply disturbed by the deaths of Tina Turner and Sinead O’ Connor. Most of the 80 s celebrities have died in the last decade.Needless to say, they were human encyclopedias of mental illness. I […]

There is no foreseeing the future whether you’re religious or not. It’s just a matter of escapism. Don’t build your […]
Self-denial is my way of self-identifying at a distance. When I m unproductive, I work on making my neighbour happy.I believe in “Giving to Receive”. There are days when I run out of inspirational resources and there’s nothing I can do for myself. Conversely, there’s always something we can do for others.In media jargon, it’s called […]
