Thought They Needed A Little Reminder That They Still Have Far More To Lose If They Double Down On This

Wider community benefit to not experiencing adult relationships the way other people do, and not having a line between "acquaintance" and "friend" — If I do interact with others, tend to make people feel "included"... by accident?

When someone says, "pass this gift along to a friend", I immediately think of everyone in my neighborhood I've ever had a friendly interaction with.

I don't experience an "in-group" and an "out-group". i just... interact with people. So when I think of doing something nice for people from church for Christmas, I don't think of it as "outreach" vs "visiting friends". It's all equal to me.

Sometimes it means being overly friendly to someone who wonders why I'm acting "like we're friends" when we're not. Sometimes it means thinking of someone who's desperately lonely and is glad I remembered them. I never know unless they tell me.

I think the reason why some cis people are so offended by being called "cis" is because they're entirely unfamiliar with the idea that they might be things that they didn't deliberately choose to be, or that the way they inherently are and hadn't considered as a distinct thing may be a concept that's been named, observed and defined. They don't like to learn that there are names for them that they had not been aware of.

When you've lived all your life with a vague and lingering dread that you are somehow different from everyone around you, it's a relief to learn that there are words for what you've got going on, that there are names for people like you. That you're not somehow uniquely wrong in some way in which everyone else is right, you're just type B when the vast majority of people are type A. There are others like you, whose patterns are like yours, you are not a deviant for deviating from the "norm".

Default Settings People get strangely insulted by the mere idea that they, too, have a slot in the classification system. They'll protest this, being the biggest, most typical, and statistically most likely category isn't enough, they want to be outside of this system completely. Arguing "I'm not some type, I am normal", like being sorted into a type at all is dehumanising and insulting. They want there to only be One Type, and that everyone falling outside of it is a Miscellaneous Deviant. Being "typical" in contrast to "atypical" isn't enough, they want to be normal in contrast to abnormal.

In unrelated news, the ADHD subreddit on reddit has banned the word "neurotypical". That kind of language has been deemed as 'political', meaning that it hurts the feelings of neurotypicals and therefore should not exist.

"Surely I am faking this" I tell myself crying quietly and alone. "I am doing this for attention", I sob.

"surely im faking this," i think, directly experiencing all the symptoms nd not benefiting from it at all

Hi everyone,

I know there’s only a little bit of a difference between inattentive ADHD and Hyperactive ADHD. It may not look like much of a difference, but they overlap more than you think. I believe that’s why ADD is no longer used. Since ADHD is a spectrum like Autism is. Hopefully that made sense. Lol

Anyway, I hope this helps some of you.

Always keep and row, row to where the heart you takes, ask your soul for clues

Anyone else think so fast you don’t use words? The concept just clicks and your brain moves on, and trying to go back to slow it down and turn it into words for someone else is torture?
