First, I Need to Breathe Tee

Sometimes looking after yourself has to come first.

Inspired by the simple reminder to put your own oxygen mask on before helping someone else, this tee is about recognising when you need to pause, regulate and take care of yourself.

The back features:

FIRST,

I NEED

TO

BREATHE.

with a hand-drawn oxygen mask falling alongside the message.

Before I can be there

for anyone else.

The front turns that idea into something practical, with a reminder of the things that can help on a difficult day:

THINGS I NEED TODAY

TO HELP ME BREATHE:

  • Freedom to stim
  • Fidgets
  • Reduced eye contact
  • Clear, direct instructions
  • Time to process
  • Quiet when I need it
  • Space to regulate

Because taking care of yourself isn't selfish. Sometimes it's what makes it possible to keep going.

Designed for real life

Part of The Unspoken Collection — functional, understated clothing designed around communication, regulation and self-advocacy.

No bright colours. No clinical aesthetic. No need to explain yourself.

Just a black, alternative-style tee with a message that says:

I need to look after myself too.

For autistic people and anyone who finds that their needs can become harder to recognise when life gets overwhelming.
