What's in my purse as an autistic and chronically ill girly

For the neurotypicals and able bodied people of the world, it seems they don't bring things with them, just whatever fits in their pockets, but for me, and I think a lot of people like me I need a lot of stuff to feel comfortable in a space, so without further ado here's what's in my purse on an average day!

Firstly, the bag! It's a canvas messenger-type bag with plenty of pockets!

Let's dig into the front pockets, two small button closure pockets, one dedicated to my fidgets and the other dedicated to other necessities.

Fidgets (first pocket):

I like to have a lot of options for different moods, so here are my favorites I like to bring with me!

marble in a little tube

tangle

clicky keys

infinity cube

combo fidget

shapeshifting rainbow triangles thing

Other necessities in the second pocket:

sample tube of Summer Fridays lip balm

Burt's Bees tinted chapstick

my keys

loop earplugs

beats earbuds

pocket for writing utensils:

3 mechanical pencils

1 regular wooden pencil

1 pen

main pocket:

tangerine colored journal

reading glasses (switching to all the time glasses soon)

more support wrist wraps for when compression gloves aren't enough

phone

Okay, that's everything I carry on an ordinary day! Here are some special bonus things I bring sometimes, but not all the time:

charger and/or rechargeable battery

a book to read

snack

instant hot packs for joint/muscle pain

makeup for touch-ups

my jewelry when I inevitably take it off

compression gloves or knee sleeves if I'm not currently wearing them

Finally, here's a picture of my bag and all the stuff in it for a visual!

hope you enjoyed!
