Leaving my therapist last session she told me I should look into what a “low demand lifestyle” was. My first thought was “f u, no???” and my second thought was “okay but how do I actually incorporate these things?”

I would be grateful to hear how folks of all support need levels have incorporated this concept into their lives.

In my particular situation I have a huge amount of autonomy in my life so most of my struggles are from self demands. It’s a lot easier for me to act on demands from others (so long as I agree they are good demands, things that make sense or that I don’t really care about but care about the person asking so I can do it without too much resistance).

      LOL.

      Alas, I have an internet connection, and know how to use it properly… So I’ll never be bored. ;)

      I don’t know what this comment means? It is a personal reflection on an attempt to adopt it? Or a surface level flippant remark?

        A joke?

        Edit:Plus whenever I try not doing something it’s more annoying than than the pain of doing it.

        So being a minority is never enjoyable, even if you are more competent in certain things than others.
