    Getting a haircut

    I find the whole experience uncomfortable, their hands touching me, bits of itchy hair on my face, having hair pulled, being hit by combs and stuff, and the hot air from the dryer. I sit and endure. Don't really talk much apart from trying to explain what i want. I went to one hairdresser for...

    Getting a haircut

    i really don't like getting my hair cut, it's like going to the dentist for me. it's the physical rather than the social stuff that i find most difficult. In the uk we're still under covid restrictions and hairdressers are closed - haven't had it done since November.

    Thanks for your replies everyone - she has no intention of seeking a diagnosis, I was thinking of more community-led language, as in the LGBT+ community where there is a niche for everyone if they want it :).

    inbetween?

    I have a close friend in her 50s who, partly as a result of lockdown conditions (time to think and assess what is important to her) and being in contact with an autistic woman online, has started to think/realise she is neurodivergent. I sent her Samantha Craft's 'checklist' (Females with...

    Does anyone else love Bret Easton Ellis novels?

    i really liked American Psycho and think about Patrick Bateman quite often. I read Less Than Zero but didn't love it, and Glamorama was pretty good, but odd. It's a long time since I read them, they haven't made me want to read all his books. There are always more things to read, but if i saw...
