It seems to be more of a gift than anything, but I still don't understand where other people are coming from when they try to talk about this sense of despair and helplessness when they're alone, and felt like me not understanding this in itself was a flaw despite the perks it brings.
I am not a fan of psychosomatic labeling of nonissues but getting diagnosed with autism made more sense than I'd like to admit. I mean fuck you but fair point, yknow
