so, a bratty sub
This is an autism thing isn't it.
It's becoming apparent that my avoidance and denial of being autistic may have caused some problems.
I'm as neurotypical as they come and I'm this way. I'd much rather be given orders, really flourished in lower ranks in the military. When I given leadership I do well enough, but the stress is so much higher. It's just more responsibility, and less responsibility is always best responsibility.
So yeah, could be an autism thing. Could just be a thing.
Ouch, yeah get that checked out
I got diagnosed when I was 15 and spent years saying, "Obviously I'm not autistic," instead of learning how to live life autistically.
Surprise, surprise, here we are as an adult now still dealing with autism symptoms and trying to learn to cope while working full-time.
I'm in this post and I don't like it
Iβm ADHD with an autistic partner and itβs g l o r i o u s. He builds and maintains the structure and lets me kind of exist in and around and through and outside of it as needed.
autism with pathologic demand avoidance is great, i want and need routine but if the routine doesn't just.. happen on its own.. i feel forced into it and i can't do it.
