Sorry if I'm destroying your perception of thrust vector and there products, but they are made in Italy, it's just not widely reported because of EU labelling systems, but they are a German company. I suppose it's not so bad, the UK has absolutely nothing, the closest thing made to an adult nappy is size 8 pampers, I think there might be one small incontinence pad manufacturer left, but that's it, everything is still imported, but at great cost. Bloody Brexit -

I'm 34 and in the same situation, but I'm autistic and have incredibly severe rejection anxiety so just don't put myself out there, I've convinced myself that I'm simply incapable of having a conventional relationship, especially a heterosexual one. It doesn't bother me, sometimes, but I do worry about dying alone, or what would happen if I lost one of the few friends or close family members I rely on. But it also creates severe money worries, I've already been rejected for disability payments twice but can't reliably hold a job long enough to keep a roof over my head. Having someone there for financial and emotional support would be amazing, but I have almost nothing to offer them in return. -

It annoys me too, I'm 34 which is right on the borderline, if I had a child in a year I'd be close to retirement by the time they moved out. But after doing a lot more digging into my mental health, and researching conditions I've had all my life, both diagnosed or un diagnosable, there is only around a 30% chance of having a neurotypical child, and I don't think I would be able to cope with a child with complex behavioural needs. So I think that ship has sailed, Have you considered fostering or adopting, there's plenty of ways of becoming a parent, mibby you'll find someone who already has kids, like a ready made family -

Since going on medical melatonin I don't dream when im asleep, only after I'm awake again but usually can easily steer the 'dream' which is really more of a hallucination. But I used to use dreams to process thoughts and predict or envision future activities, but I don't get that anymore leaving me feeling a bit lost. I'm also no longer able to fall asleep on demand during the day to reset anxious freezes, leaving me to battle my fears alone in my head which is scary and can often leave me totally absent and unable to move. I will be seeking help for this as soon as I can, but I need to not present it to the doctor as a side effect of sleep restructuring and more as a separate issue that requires treatment -

I know this is a depression page, but I refuse to admit I'm depressed, I'm just autistic and anxious, but couldn't recognise it as anxiety until I was unable to do anything about it. If I got into an anxious freeze, where needing to do something triggered me, I used to rely on daytime naps to reset my mental state, but I'm now on sleep meds because chronic insomnia was causing severe behaviour and functioning problems during the day. I suspect undiagnosed ADHD is primarily to blame for that. But now I'm having forced sleep at night I can't find a way to escape this daytime anxiety. I just need to curl up in a dark space and try to minimise sensory inputs, but it's scary which just causes the anxiety to spiral deeper. I need to get back to my GP and explore treatment options but need to wait until my sleep has stabilized fully.
