i like to pretend i already died and asked god to send me back to earth so i can swim in lakes again and see mountains and get my heart broken and love my friends and cry so hard in the bathroom and go grocery shopping 1,000 more times. and that i promised i would never forget the miracle of being here

Sometimes it feels like everyone around me is speaking in a secret language and I'm the only one who doesn't know it.

This explains a lot about my lack of asking for help when I clearly need it

[mctreeleth]

Don't forget the fact that asking for help carries the risk of someone expressing mild disappointment in your inabilities, which will cause you to shut down for 5 to 7 working days.

nothing beats the joy of meeting a close friend who’s also neurodivergent and you haven’t seen in a long time and feeling that enormous sense of relief and comfort and familiarity of being around a person you can genuinely and effortlessly be yourself with.

my social interactions are generally so stressful and anxiety-inducing and overwhelming that I was genuinely convincing myself I’ve become a boring person who is completely incapable of having fun around others and feel connected to them.

but I see now that the problem isn’t me— I really just needed to be around “my people.”

You cannot live alone on the fantasies you feed to your mind, eventually you have to touch your life for real, assess and analyze your habits, understand your character, try not to hate yourself for your character as it was shaped when you were very young by circumstances outside of you, and begin learning how to cope with your character, how to build habits that work for you, finish small projects, finish big projects, expose yourself to more uncomfortable situations, assess why you want to leave that friendship before you leave it, raise your anxiety levels on purpose, so that you can grow, raise your work load on purpose, so that you can grow, so that you can build resilience, so that your life expands, and can be experienced by you in full and in reality

lottie: i’m autistic and i do not read social cues nor body language that well, so if you’re ever upset with me pls tell me immediately because i won’t be able to automatically know right away, and it’s not because i do not care i genuinely will not know unless you communicate with me:)

my allistic friends: gets angry with me for never knowing i upset them or if they’re upset with me or not + expects me to understand what i did wrong without informing me what that something i did wrong even is. even gets angry when i ask for enlightenment!
