A very common comorbidity for NDs.

Did you know there is a strong link between autism and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome? Discover how this genetic condition affects health and how it can be identified early!

Wanted to share this which is a continuation of my earlier post:

Struggling with impulse spending? Does looking at your bank balance feel like deciphering a secret code? If you're neurodivergent, you know the constant battle with financial anxiety is real. It's exhausting.

Traditional budgeting apps weren't built for brains like ours. They're a cluttered mess of charts, spreadsheets, and a million categories that just add to the overwhelm.

We're building something different. **VisuBudget** is a new app designed specifically to quiet the financial noise and give you back control.

Our core philosophy is one simple, clear, actionable number: your **"Safe to Spend"** amount.

No more complex mental math. No more guessing if you can afford that coffee or new video game. Just open the app and see exactly what you can spend right now without affecting your bills or savings.

Imagine...
* Knowing your true disposable income at a glance.
* Effortlessly ring-fencing money for specific things (like groceries or fuel) with "Smart Pockets."
* Finally getting ahead of impulse spending and building savings without the stress.

We're now opening up a **closed beta for our Android app**, and we need your help to make it perfect. We're looking for neurodivergent testers (ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, etc.) who can give us real-world feedback.

Ready to trade anxiety for clarity? Here’s how to join:

1. **Request an Invite**: Head to our website and fill out the beta request form.
2. **Get Added**: We'll manually add your email to our private tester list on the Google Play Console.
3. **Get Your Links**: We'll then email you a special link to sign up for your VisuBudget account and a direct link to download the app from the Play Store.

Because this is a closed beta, there are a couple of manual steps on our end, so thank you for your patience! We believe this is the key to building an app that genuinely helps our community.

Stop letting your finances control you. It's time to understand your money in a way that finally makes sense.

**Request your beta invite now!**

VisuBudget replaces complex spreadsheets with a single, simple number: your 'Safe to Spend' amount.

I wanted to share with you a blog post from an app maker that I think would be helpful for NDs. They're making a budgeting app, and we're using it to see how it is. It's in beta testing/building now, but I wanted to share their post with you, so youre aware.

Here's your friendly reminder that if you do this enough times... it can cause serious long term emotional damage.

It might not seem like a big deal, but let me tell you... the cPTSD this can cause is REAL.

Parents, if you have a kid who gets triggered by sensory inputs... please understand that sensory sensitivities are not a choice.

And if your autistic kiddo is able to articulate what's triggering them (which is a gift that not everyone is lucky enough to get)... realize that they need your help... not your invalidation.

Even friends who are autistic. Be a good friend and understand their pov.

Thank you for listening. ❤️

Gaslighting autistics looks like:

It's too bright!
No it's not.

It's too loud!
No it's not.

It tastes yucky!
No it doesn't.

I'm scared!
Don't be silly.

I hate going there!
No you don't.

I'm sorry!
No you aren't.

So much for "acceptance".
I'm getting tired of all the infighting.

I've watched this before, and it legitimately triggers me.

Do *NOT* watch if you're already over stimulated.

This is a very good way to help others understand.
