Listen, lamps are good and over head lights are BAD

Lamps: nice, provide a variety of moods and light levels, also decorate your space, look really cool, have fun buttons and switches, help with proper awakeness (dim &warm lamps in evening, bright and cool lamps in midday), and can be moved around to illuminate what you specifically need to see.

Overhead lights: bad, often strobey, can’t be changed/moved easily, usually only one brightness and colour, makes it feel like you’re in the dentist or an office, illuminate weird corners, rarely look cool

Lamps are the clear winner

Non-autistics living with autistics:

They keep eating the same freaking food and it frustrates me so much! We can't have the "big scary light" on just lamps everywhere! Even when I try to find peace by doing stuff with them they just ignore me and do whatever they want. They can't even do the simplest of things like go with me to the grocery store every week! How do people expect them to survive in society??

Autistics living together:

So as long as we get my 10 packets of this really specific food, and some snacks, I'll be okay. Also is it cool if you go to the grocery store? I can clean the bathroom since thats bad sensory for you and the store is bad sensory for me. Can you turn on the lamp instead of the big light? It gives me a headache. Thanks man. Yea I'll unplug the TV for you since you can hear the high pitched noise. Do you want to do two separate things in the same room as bonding again this evening? Thats my favorite part of the day too.

hey if something about your environment or body is bothering you right now & if you’re able to, please take a moment to adjust that thing. turn off the lights if theyre hurting your eyes, grab a pair of socks if you’re cold, move into a better position if you’re in an uncomfortable one.

it’s easy to get stuck in a “this isn’t good but I’ll survive” mindset, especially with executive dysfunction, but you deserve to feel more okay in the spaces & body you’re in.
