article: It’s important to wake up for school at the same time everyday so that your body is used to getting up at your scheduled time. Even on the weekends, try not to wake up more than half an hour later than you  usually do for school days. If you have trouble waking up on your own, set an alarm clock or ask your parents to wake you up in the morning. If you still have trouble waking up with an alarm clock, put your alarm clock in a different room or somewhere farther away from your bed. This way, you'll be forced to get out of bed and turn off your alarm. If you prefer to shower at night, washing your face in the morning can help to wake you up. Don't forget to brush and floss your teeth.  If you like to use makeup, use more neutral colors like peaches, browns, and yellows for a normal school day. When it comes to shoes, think about what you’ll be doing that day. If you've got soccer practice after school pack your socks and cleats. If you're going to be standing around in choir class, don't wear heels. What you eat for breakfast will affect your performance for the rest of the day. Get good carbs, fiber, and some protein.  Healthy options include oatmeal, a smoothie, yogurt, or eggs. Even if you’re short on time, grab something to go like a banana or apple.

Write an article based on this "Consider the cause of your child’s meltdown. Find ways to make home life more comfortable for your child. Teach stress management techniques to your child. Notice when the child is stressed, and validate their feelings. Model positive behavior for your child. Create a quiet space for your child. Keep a meltdown log. Talk to your child about hitting and bad behavior. Contact one of the child’s other caregivers for assistance during a meltdown."
article: A meltdown is when an autistic person can no longer handle the bottled-up stress that they have been holding back, and it is released in an outburst that looks like a tantrum. Your child’s meltdown was most likely caused by something that is frustrating him. Autistic children don't melt down because they want to be difficult, but because of something stressful. They may be trying to say that they cannot cope with a situation, stimulus, or routine change. They may melt down out of frustration or as a last resort if other communication attempts fail. Meltdowns can take many forms. They may involve screaming, crying, covering ears, self-injurious behavior, or occasionally aggression. Since meltdowns come from pent-up stress, creating a friendlier environment can minimize stressors in the child's life.   Follow a routine to give your child a sense of stability. Creating a picture schedule can help them visualize the routine.  If changes have to occur, it is best to prepare your child for these changes by showing them the changes that are to be made through pictures or social stories. Explain why the change will occur. This will help your child understand what to expect and be calm when it happens. Allow your child to leave stressful situations as needed. Some autistic children do not understand how to deal with their emotions and may need extra guidance. Congratulate your child when they successfully demonstrate stress management techniques.   Come up with plans for specific stressors (loud noises, crowded rooms, etc.). Teach self-calming techniques: deep breathing, counting, taking breaks, etc. Have a plan for how a child can tell you if something is bothering them. Treating their needs as natural and important will help them learn that it's okay to express them.   "I see your face is all scrunched up. Is the loud thumping bothering you? I can ask your sisters to go play outside." "You seem angry today. Would you like to tell me why you're upset?" Your child observes you when you're stressed, and learns to mimic your coping behaviors. Keeping your cool, clearly expressing your feelings, and taking quiet time when you need it will help your child learn to do the same.   Consider narrating your choices. "I'm feeling upset right now, so I'm going to take a quick break and take some deep breaths. Then I'll be right back." After you use a behavior several times, the child is likely to try it out for themselves. It is important to recognize your child may have difficulties processing and regulating multiple sights, sounds, smells and textures. Too much stimulation and your child can become stressed, overwhelmed, and prone to meltdowns. In this circumstance, a quiet room can help the child calm down.  Teach the child to signal that they need the room. They can point to the room, show a picture card representing the room, use sign language, type, or ask verbally. Read How to Make a Calming Down Corner for additional tips. Keeping a record of each time that your child has a meltdown can also help you to understand the reasons for the behavior. Try answering the following questions in writing the next time your child has a meltdown:  What made the child upset? (Consider that the child may have been holding back stress for hours.) What signs of stress did the child exhibit? If you noticed any stress buildup, what did you do? Was it effective? How could you prevent a similar meltdown in the future? Remember that autism is not an excuse for hitting or being mean. If the child is mean to others, talk to him once they have calmed down. Explain that the particular action was not acceptable, and tell them what they can do instead.  "It was not okay for you to hit your brother. I understand that you were upset, but hitting hurts people, and it's not okay to hurt people when you're angry. If you're mad, you can take some deep breaths, take a break, or tell me about the problem." Autistic people have been traumatized or killed in the hands of the police. If you cannot handle a meltdown, get one of the child's other caregivers to help you.   Only call the police in extreme, physically harmful situations. Police may respond violently to your child, which could cause symptoms of PTSD and lead to worse meltdowns.

Identify your risk factors for synesthesia. Don't confuse synesthesia with hallucinations. Be aware that no two people with synesthesia have the same experience."
article:
Synesthesia is considered a rare neurological condition that affects the senses, but it's likely that many people who have it are either undiagnosed or assume that other perceive the world just like them. It is unknown how many people have synesthesia. If you actually see colors in the air, smell, hear, or feel things, you have projected synesthesia. This form of synesthesia is rarer than associated synesthesia and is what people first think of as synesthesia.  Some people with synesthesia (called synesthetes) hear, smell, taste or feel pain in color. Others can taste shapes or perceive written letters and words in different colors. For example, they may see an "F" in red and a "P" in yellow when they read. Some synesthetes see abstract concepts, such as abstract shapes, units of time or mathematical equations floating in space outside their bodies — this is termed "conceptual synesthesia." According to research done in the U.S., there are some factors strongly associated with synesthesia. For example, about 3x more women than men have synesthesia in the U.S. People who have synesthesia are also much more likely to be left-handed and have a 40% chance of a relative having the same condition. Often when people talk of their synesthesia, others assume they are hallucinating or on drugs. What distinguishes true synesthesia experiences from hallucinations is that they are repeatable and predictable, not fanciful and random. For example, if you taste strawberries when you hear a certain song, then one must always trigger the other sensation in a predictable fashion to be considered a synesthete. It doesn't always have to be two-way, though. Synesthetes often note being teased and ridiculed (usually starting in childhood) for describing sensory experiences that others can't experience. Synesthesia is a sort of cross-wiring of the nerves and brain synapses related to the five senses. And no two synesthetes have the exact same wiring scheme. For example, the most common form of synesthesia is grapheme-color, when numbers and letters each have their own color. The colors assigned to each letter are different for everyone, but many people have red A's. Another common form is chromesthesia, or colored hearing — sounds, music or voices that are heard and also trigger the eyes to see colors. However, someone may see the color red whenever they hear the word "dog", whereas another might see the color orange. Synesthetic perceptions are specific to each person.
