I Couldn't Sleep......

I have been unable to sleep post-meltdown so I went online and I read about meltdowns.

Mega Missy Type Meltdowns.

I read academic papers and I also read the personal accounts written by people on the spectrum.

From this I have come to the conclusion that what might help is  lots of exercise.

Temporarily, the two-hour walks type exercise can't happen but exercise in the front garden and living room can happen.

So I have just bought these , they are meant to arrive tomorrow .

I would have liked to have bought them today but I cannot take Missy with me to the shops because of the possibility of a meltdown and they may not have them in stock anyway.

Next on the list is to organise some scooting :)

It seems that the exerting of energy helps  to dissipate the built up stress the individual is feeling and helps to resolve the situation sooner .

Hopefully this will result in no more mega meltdowns and only mini meltdowns and then the ultimate ........no meltdowns:)
