I just want to let you guys know that Dad only has a couple days left, hence why I'm absent most of the time. Anyways, it's late, I just wanted to tell you a bit about autism.

You know how certain things or people can stress you out? Well, stress and autism are not a good combo. I've been under a lot of stress lately, and I got physical with a kid who bullies my friend because of said stress. You know how hard it is to do your work when you're stressed? Well, double those emotions, then triple them, then quadruple them, and you get how I feel when I'm stressed and need to work. Certain things trigger me more when I'm stressed, and I tend to try to get whatever's stressing me out to go away. Once, I scratched a chalkboard to get the class to shut up so I could learn. It didn't work. It actually made them talk more, so the plan backfired on me. Stress is bad for me because I get physical if pushed too far, can't work because of the stress, and I get triggered easier, and honestly with what's going on right now, I'm very stressed. If someone were to ask me 'On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your stress?'  I would say 11, but can you blame me?

I just got an idea, what if in the comments section, just for fun, play a guessing game called 'How stressed out is Jasmine?' Yeah. I get very weird ideas early in the morning. I should probably go to bed. Good night. Still, a guessing game like that would be fun, ya know?
