Being an otherwise somewhat-functional autistic adult is HUMILIATING because. Yeah I can go out and work a real actual job with minimal difficulty most days. Yeah I can interact with other human beings and force myself to appear mostly normal. Yeah I can do adult responsibilities like grocery shopping and cleaning and cooking and laundry when necessary with little difficulty.
But. Every single night. I am faced with my greatest nemesis, the one thing I cannot bear to endure:
Taking A Shower.
