If you are autistic, you are at higher risk of heat stroke. There are more heatwaves coming. Please be careful and try to stay cool. You need to drink 3 litres of water a day. Be aware this can impact your electrolytes. You can these from the chemist in tablets you can dissolve in water. You can cool yourself down by showering or using cold flannels etc. You might want to get a room thermometer. If you're in a place that's really very warm or its making you sweat loads or feel uncomfortable and you can't cool it down, you need to find some place else to go. A friend of mine is making a webpage for tips aimed specifically at people on the spectrum and I'll link it when it goes live. Heat stroke is very dangerous, please try to stay safe.
