  • Sovereignty of God

    Sovereignty of God

    I was just reading in my book today about the sovereignty of God. The sovereignty of God is the idea that God is the ruler of creation and has the right to exercise his power over it. In the past it was an easy one to answer as I simply refused to believe in God…

  • Beholding

    Beholding

    I’ve read 4 chapters of my Christian book ‘Beholding‘. It was a struggle initially as the author kept trying to make the point that God and prayer shouldn’t be a transactional relationship. I had no issues with this as I’ve become less pleased with the greed of capitalism. I don’t like transactional relationships at all…

  • Reflections on Anti-psychotics

    Reflections on Anti-psychotics

    I was thinking what it’s like being on a high dose of anti-psychotics to a low dose/none. I am different between both. On a low dose I have a sense of adventure and push myself too hard. Sometimes I feel bulletproof and have to be careful of not pushing myself to crashing. On a higher…

  • A Poem about me

    A Poem about me

    A poem I wrote about me using ChatGPT (AI) In Southend-on-Sea, by the rolling tide,Lives a man named Shaun, with Star Trek pride.A collection vast, on shelves displayed, DVDs and Blu-rays, a media parade.Each Sunday morn, as bells do chime,He finds his peace, in sacred time.Communion bread, the wine so fine,A moment’s pause, divine and…

  • Thoughts on Communion

    Thoughts on Communion

    I do appreciate participating in Holy Communion at Church on Sundays. I find with my condition and unemployment I am stigmatised and demonised by much of the media and thus society. Confessing our sins each week at Communion helps me let go of such negativity and ill feeling. Eating the bread and drinking the wine…

  • Typical Days

    Typical Days

    I had a nice day today. Exactly what I needed. I went for a short walk and stayed alone at home. Watched Television, mainly dogs, The Simpsons and sometimes news on in background. I did reading of CS Lewis in Christianity. Will do some Bible reading shortly and prayers. That’s how most of my days…

  • Hidden Suicide?

    Hidden Suicide?

    I have often blogged about my own episodes of psychosis, autism and mental illness experiences on Twitter and on this blog. The people I follow and naturally the algorithm serves up news of other peoples death by suicide, neglect or other reasons. Quite often I have noticed people that have killed themselves have had their…

  • Austerity and Stoicism

    Austerity and Stoicism

    Since the banking crisis of 2008, times have became increasingly more difficult for many people in Britain and the world. Since 2010 the “free at the point of use” NHS has declined as a health service where it is no longer number 1 in the world for many categories. The NHS waiting list was around…

About me:

I’m Shaun, aged 40, I am a follower of Christ, diagnosed with Autism and Schizoaffective disorder. In this blog I discuss my reality, beliefs and interests. When you meet one person with Autism, you’ve met one person with Autism.

My back/bottom makes my mattress feel like almost concrete. Though this is a new mattress I got earlier this year. A few days ago it felt very comfortable. Body is just not in a good place right now. I hope it gets better soonish. It is a lot to deal with.

I find the algorithm of twitter very shocking lately. Keeps serving up far right and often racist tweets from frightening accounts of 100k+. I have to add them to my mute list.

Time of day again for my hot cross bun and tea. In a lot of pain today. Think this is my worst day for my back ever.

Even laying down seems to be aching this afternoon. Not sure if going out this morning to Aldi has aggravated it. Definitely not in a great situation at the moment. Thank god I haven’t got any pressure to work or anything.
