A while ago I read about autistic people and nesting somewhere & I think we don't talk about that enough.
Apparently, a lot of autistic people like nesting.
I love nesting. I carefully choose a space to build my nest and I bring all my little trinkets there.
I surround myself with everything I love and everything I could possibly need in the next few hours- my water bottle, a snack, my weighted blanket, my soft blanket, hand creme, my headphones, my charger, my favorite stuffed animals- so I don't have to leave the nest to get anything.
It makes me feel save and calm and like everything is gonna be ok. This is a nesting appreciation post.
Any other autistics who love a good nest?
