Small things make a big difference

Posted by: alisrowe, October 8, 2023

Life can sometimes feel unbearably hard for autistic people. Many of us feel anxious on a daily basis and experience frequent meltdowns and shutdowns. Many of us find certain situations intolerable and we avoid them.

I always like to reflect upon the strategy that “small things make a big difference.” 

There are lots of small things that autistic people can do that can improve their mental wellbeing and make situations a bit easier for them. Never underestimate the importance of these small things!
