    Your very welcome @Nightcity .

    I struggle in December

    But then again

    I struggle in Summer too .

    Im just a very complex person @Nightcity very complex

    Not a massive fan of Xmas

    I just mask and hope for the best

    You took time out for a reason @Nightcity .

    Please dont be too hard on yourself .

    I probably should have engaged more too

    That time has now passed

    We are both on our new paths and we are doing ok

    Im gonna have to put my phone on charge soon @Nightcity

    Im intrigued to learn more about autism and gain stronger friendships here because despite having family around sometimes we can feel incredibly lonely especially when the people around us arent understanding

    I hope that would be ok

    Of course it's ok, Although all autistics are different I'm at the more severe end unfortunately so not all that applies to me will to you, but I'm sure we can help each other. 💛

    I have read and seen stuff online about autism and how it differs in people

    It also differs in males and females too .

    Ive longed to be in contact with people who understand rather than what ive encounted in life ( non understanding people ) .

    Im not gonna quiz you continually or ask a million questions .

    Just having the feeling of not being an outcast is enough for now .

    Always felt like the odd one in society

    When i found out i had adhd it made a lot of sense to me but close family still slate me for who i am and what i am and how i approach things etc

    No compassion whatsoever .

    We are not bad people

    We are just different

    Doesnt make us bad people because they dont like how we are .

    I don't mind you ask what you like when you like.

    Yes it is different in males and females I had a partner who also had autism, a sweet darling and the only partner who didn't a*use me. Her problems and mine differed but she was much more independent than me.

    my sister has ADHD, sadly we don't speak anymore after a cruel action on her part last year.

    But you're not an outcast, this world is unfortunately however not built for us autistics yet they expect us to conform to their norms and I can't, don't and won't being extremely stubborn and principled causes me more grief lol

    I assure you you do deserve it and glad you accept it.

    other people convince us we are beneath them and not worthy, but The best way to show them they're wrong is to ignore them and remember they don't understand or even want to.

    I’m here to say goodbye, I have to just live a life offline. I’m not in a good place mentally or physically, I just can’t let people into my life. I’ve come to the conclusion that I have to hold my own council, thoughts and opinions to. I’ll no longer be popping on here, I’m not a good person to be around, I’m neither kind, nor am I a good person, I’ve just come to realise that what I type comes across wrong.
