An autistic experience: everyone's messing around, pranking each other or getting wild or telling mean jokes. So you try to join in and everyone stops laughing. "Why would you DO that?! How could you SAY that?!"
Um I thought I was participating?
Having untreated ADHD for 30 years has made my ADHD much harder to treat than it would have been originally.
Non-treatment of ADHD causes a ton of negative consequences and comorbidities.
I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts, rockets and spacecraft”.
Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.
You see, I didn't have the luxury of saying a sound bothered me - because when it did, I was told other people couldn't hear it, or it wasn't a big deal. It's not worth the social backlash for me to say a sound is bothering me.

A new type of typeface might be beneficial to neurodivergent readers! 🤯
It's called bionic reading — the first few letters are bolded, making it easier for readers to glide through text and stay focused.
