Hey everyone I have ADHD and Autism and am very self aware. But I find people get frustrated at me (like work) when they want me to explain my support needs and reasonings for things like if I made a mistake and I just go blank. Like I understand my self and don't at the same time. It makes me feel really like alone in myself and just life

    I think it's difficult to explain our difficulties, especially on the spot, but also generally.

    I think I'm quite self-aware BUT I also know there will be things I do or struggle with that I don't realise aren't 'normal' because they've always been part of me and how I do things.
