That happened too many times before I knew I was autistic. Now… it only happens when I can’t avoid the social event, but a pair of earplugs works wonders for the noise (not for the rest of the stimuli and the presence of people, tho, but makes it more manageable).
No, it didn’t. He is a free speech absolutist. For his own speech, not for yours. He bought twitter so he could speak freely.
And the face banquet starts.
Generally, 12ft.io works pretty well for me.
I don’t have ADHD, but I’m autistic.
I too have two organization systems. But I realized that what seems chaotic, has actually a precise order. My closet is organized in a specific way, but my work desk looks like a mess, however, change something of my chaotic desk and I will notice. And will take me some sweet time to recover from it.
With social events I was like that too, but given some time, I learned that it’s not worth it. When I feel like going to a party, I remember the noise, the lights, the people, and remember how stressful they are. I don’t like parties anymore, and don’t get that urge anymore, but I still have days in which I want to be “social”. That is for me the hardest urge to “solve”, as I struggle with other humans same way you are.
Ideally, it has to be a big publisher that spends a ton of money on it.
In truth, an AAA game can be spotted by a price tag of over 60 €/USD, at least one season pass, 3+ different editions, a huge day-1 patch and a lack of anything that’s not predatory monetization of any remaining gameplay elements.
Doesn’t work for me either. Mail cache empty.
I’ve been diagnosed at the tender age of 36, because my lovely parents didn’t give a fuck about all the signals and the teachers “hints”.
Up until then, it’s been hell, and I’m not exagerating when I say that I don’t know how I made it this far in life. When you are one of the “lucky” ones that only suffer from what is now called “functional” autism (aka there is no cognitive disability), you struggle with most social aspects, you torture yourself thinking you are weird, you hate yourself because it’s obvious (only for yourself) that there is something wrong with you that you can’t understand.
A diagnosis is not a death sentence but an answer to what is happening in your brain to make it work differently. Now, I am starting to get help, I am asking for acomodations that make my life easier and I understand what is happening in my head. And most important, I’m not ashamed anymore when my “weirdness” leaks out because I understand it.
Putin will go and say “yeah, we did it, so what? Suck it up” and that will be the end of story.
