Autistic Hedgehog

RSS

I worked in a research lab at my university. Loved it - - mostly because marine biology is one of my "special interests" and who doesn't love getting paid to do what they'd be doing anyways? - - and I found that (cont'd)

even in triggering situations at work (like running around on a beach with nearly 100 other people, all of us elbow-to-elbow, rushing to plant mangroves and lay out oyster mats before the tide came in) I wasn’t being triggered. (cont’d) It’s like I was so focused on the work because I was so in love with what I was doing that it created a buffer or something. Maybe? It makes me curious to know if other hedgehogs have had similar experiences. (I’m done now)
