Emoop :
(this is gonna be a long winded self rant, but I don't do it very often)
)yeah I've been struggling with masking, and especially ADHD, I'm hoping if I can get on ADHD medication it helps with motivation to do stuff and similar things.
one thing I feel with my autism is I'm in this constant state of overthinking, I overthink because of the autism/social ineptness which in turn feeds into a feedback loop, and overthinking about interactions
that reminds me I need to try to get a new therapist, that's also something I've found, is I feel like is no therapist has actually really helped me, I went to this last one for a year and while she's been the best one I really feel no better and I feel bad I'm basically ghosting my therapist right now under the Guise of I'm busy with moving and a vacation I went on( which is true but still)
I also find it hard to go out, I know I don't have to only go drinking, or only go partying, but whether it be because I don't like driving a lot, or the excuse of idk what to do, or that I'm tired from work, I just don't go out even though a part of me wants too
and I mean, as much as I used to think I was incapable of making friends, I've made a lot of friends though my current job I've had, I mean sheesh I just went on a cross country vacay with 6 of them, but I also still struggle to connect with new people. and for very valid reasons them all being non autistic get irritated with me on how i view myself.
every day I'm trying tho
