@KatyElphinstone@mas.to after 60 years, I’m now having silent heart attacks. My husband started asking about symptoms. I explained that, yes, I was having symptoms but I just ignore them. That’s what I’ve learned to do after being ignored, accused of “faking it” for attention (when the last thing I want as an autistic is attention), musdiagnosed, medicated, and told that CBT would sort me out. I filter out body signals to the point that dizziness, nausea, crushing fatigue, pain in my jaw, and other signals of a heart attack are just a Tuesday.
