so our brain has absolutely not chilled out with the Cotard's delusion which normally wouldn't be a huge deal because we're used to it, but usually it presents a specific way for us that we've got really good at handling and our brain has kind of added extra stuff on this time that we're not as used to that's making it harder to deal with and I can tell I'm gonna want to talk about it a lot but I'm also aware that I sound kind of insane when I try to explain it.
on the plus side I'm at least used to the way our brain works and the logic it uses for this kind of delusion so I feel pretty confident in our ability to figure out how to deal with the new stuff, and other people in the system have been coming up with stuff that's actually helped a lot so that's a relief

yet again i am trying to figure out how much to tell the counselor/therapist about how bad things are getting bc the considerations i must take into account include:
1) will i be put into the psych ward for this, and
2) will telling a professional actually help me, what kind of help would actually be available for this, and
3) are they going to give me more medications that don't actually address or fix the root of the problem while still giving me awful side effects that I'm just supposed to deal with and hopefully not end up in the hospital for

autistic ppl in latin american countries are just built different. so much physical contact. so much metaphorical language. so much eye contact. so much instant closeness with people that just met you. so much obligatory small talk. so much “friendliness” with unspoken boundaries, especially in the workplace. so much “oh i'm gonna check and i'll tell you later if i can” instead of “no, sorry”. so much imprecise language because being clear and direct is seen as rude. so much disregard for personal space. so much willingness to bend the rules here and there. and yet we just keep on going
