Being autistic and neurodivergent feels like.
• You’re alone
• You like being alone
• But then you start feeling lonely
• You wish someone would talk to you or just acknowledge you as a person.
• But then when they do have a conversation with you it is awkward and uncomfortable and you just want to go back to being alone
• You conclude that you’re much better off alone anyway and you don’t need anybody.
• Rinse and repeat

man I wish people understood how much it sucks ass to be neurodivergent and trying to find the middle ground where people like/tolerate you. like, I'm either "boring" (trying to wait my turn in conversations, holding space for other people, taking a back seat to let others get some spotlight) or "too much" (too loud/talking too much, getting excited to share, trying to participate in group conversations/activities). No one really talks about how much of being neurodivergent is just sort of trying to make yourself palatable.
I feel like so much of my life has been spent trying to find this effortless sort of middle ground everyone else seems to automatically already know, and I'm always swinging too far one way or the other. I'm lucky to have neurodivergent friends who grok me, but goddamn I wish that I could just like, exist without the constant background script in my brain that's like "you're being too loud. You're not talking enough. you're being self-centered. you're being boring. you're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong." I feel like I'm back in high school trying to make friends but stuck as the eternal "weird kid"
it's just... lonely and sucks bad.

I'm off the wall. I updated my Chromebook cuz it was running like ass and they removed my favorite font- (Verdana) and changed everything to times new fucking roman.
Besides how annoying that is, my Autistic ass is having a full blown panic attack.
Does anyone know how to help (save) me?? Or any fonts that are literally the same exact thing on google docs?

neurotypicals are so funny sometimes. “well, just don’t forget it next time.” holy shit. you’ve done it. you’ve fixed me. who knew memory problems could be solved so simply? i am no longer autistic, i am ready to join you at the social function. by god.

Someone should make art of all the neurodivergence creatures. The autism/TBH creature, the ADHD/BTW creature, the schizospec/IRL creature, and any other creatures that exist. I’d love to see them having a picnic or something like that.
