having top surgery in TWO (2!!!!!) days!!!!

going for preop stuff tomorrow morning!!!!

am scare ono

me: i swear shit was easier when i thought i was neurotypical. i could get shit done, and i wasn't miserable or burnt out like other folks report to have been! but now everything's a fuckin struggle

also me: my dude you regularly make the joke that you "didn't exist" for a few years because you have no recollection of like ~6 years of your life that you spent masking

me: ...oh yeah

#me blab #apologies for bein Too Real i just? don't really see folks talk about symptoms of masking other than burnout or depression #which are of course valid! not saying that #just like. sometimes i miss being 'normal' and not having to consider things like over or understimulation or executive dysfunction #or being able to write :(#but i gotta remind myself it *wasn't* all sunshine and rainbows back then and i'm paying for that now too #thass all. take care love yall /gen 💖
