Being autistic sucks because I'll do the hard thing, succeed (yay) but then I've hit my limit and people always want me to do MORE afterwards and I feel like such a disappointment for not being able to.
I went to an event the other day and it had already been a stressful morning, I got overwhelmed so many times and once we left the event I was completely exhausted. I thought we were going straight home afterwards but I was wrong! We went to more places, did shopping, got food and just hung around in the heat while my head was pounding! I just completely shut down because the eventvitself had already took everything out of me and I wasn't at all prepared to stay out. Finally we started driving back, I thought I could just listen to chill music on the radio and unwind but nope my mom got a call from a family member who she rarely talks to so she stayed on the phone with him for the entire ride home. I put my headphones on but it was just so hot it was not at all comfortable. Anyway times like that make me think I should never go out again. Especially since I had the worst migraine ever that day.
