P.s. all the trans people in my life diy, and they all found mentoring communities to learn from, some on 4-chan. Why can’t neurodivergent people get together and share strategies, instead of walking through life feeling like a piece of shit bc you can’t hold down a job or socialize sober. Those are symptoms, and those of us that went through the diagnostic process are LUCKY to be able to talk about it and help bring others in to reduce the harm of their coping mechanisms. This isn’t reddit, you want a heavily modded space, head on back. I want real stories, from real lives, warts and all.
Sorry, I’m so tired and I can’t stop worrying about 14 things and my heart rate won’t drop below 80, and this prudish anti whatever attitude is irking
