  • description: #austismdiet #habits #routines For 15 years, I’ve eaten almost exactly the same thing every day. It was efficient. Optimised. Reliable. Comfortable. But what happens when a routine that used to work perfectly… stops working? In this video, I share why I’m seriously considering changing a 15-year habit, how routine becomes both a strength and a vulnerability in autism, and the executive function cost of starting over. 🎞️Timestamps: 0:00 A dangerous idea - changing my 15-year diet 0:23 Why routine works so well for me 1:13 When a habit stops helping 2:29 Fatigue, desperation and going back to basics 3:53 Do we really need three meals a day? 5:48 How the body adapts to scarcity 6:23 Fasting experiences that changed my perspective 7:31 Autophagy and the body’s recovery mode 9:31 The real cost of changing a routine 11:59 What happens next? ----------------------------------------------- 👋Welcome to Autism From The Inside!!! If you're autistic or think you or someone you love might be on the autism spectrum, this channel is for you! I'm Paul Micallef, and I discovered my own autism at age 30. Yes, I know, I don't look autistic. That's exactly why I started this channel in the first place because if I didn't show you, you would never know. Autism affects many (if not all!) aspects of our lives, so on this channel, I want to show you what Autism looks like in real people and give you some insight into what's happening for us on the inside. We'll break down myths and misconceptions, discuss how to embrace autism and live well, and share what it's like to be an autistic person. Join me as I share what I've found along my journey, so you don't have to learn it the hard way. Make sure to subscribe so you won’t miss my new video every Friday and some bonus content thrown in mid-week too. ➡️️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-FpBZR7DbpvNj5UrFN8qUA?sub_confirmation=1 👋Connect with me: ➡️️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/aspergersfromtheinside ➡️️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/autismfromtheinside.com.au ➡️️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AspieFromInside ➡️️ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/autismfrominside.bsky.social ➡️️ Written Blog: https://www.autismfromtheinside.com.au/blog ➡️️ Email: aspergersfromtheinside@gmail.com Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my channel!
