The #VA is taking one of my #bipolar symptoms seriously for once and we’re looking into my memory loss. I’m kind of excited but also cautiously optimistic.
I keep seeing people talk about a new parahoy and honestly I don’t know if I want that… I love the big boat and my friends but I feel like we’re past that era. Please don’t hate me.
#AskingAutistics: Anyone have a fascination with noting license plates? Unique names, where a person is from, counting the number of plates you see from different states on road trips, etc.
It’s really exhausting having to always be the “you’re really patient by letting me always misgender you” non-binary person. Why can’t people just be fucking better?
My mom would try and play with me and my toys and I’d be like, “no, I’d rather just play by myself, thanks.” And make her go away. Lol. #ActuallyAutistic
#ADHD question of the day:
If you were late-diagnosed ADHD or auDHD or autistic, whats the one thing you used to do as a kid where you were like "can't believe they missed that 🤦♀️ ...."?
When you’re autistic, choosing what to say to others can take a lot of mental arithmetic. You want to communicate in a way you understand, but: you know your brain works differently to most people’s; you need them to understand you; and you can’t rely on them meeting you halfway.
Learned recently that I’ve just been dissociating a lot and not been present for a lot of things and conversations.
Therapy is great but also learning about myself is really hard.
I just heard someone say.
The reason you isolate when you’re struggling is because you were left alone as a child to deal with your emotions.
I felt that, I felt that a lot.
Damn
