I’ve read about how it’s typically difficult for adults with autism to remain employed, and I can completely see why. Never been officially diagnosed, but I’m pretty sure it’s a foregone conclusion in the way that I constantly over analyze every action taken by my co-workers and supervisors

So yeah there’s definitely some ND thought here, but I also can’t seem to get past how fake everything feels. And it feels like I have to play along with their little game where they all assume different personalities between the hours of 9-5 instead of being themselves. Because contrary to popular belief, individuals aren’t beneficial to capitalism, drones are

I hate my brain

    I just consider kindness and compassion and being able to express them well is social skills.

            kindness is only a social skill in a society that raises you to be a nihilistic narcissist by default, where feelings of guilt are to be projected onto the victims of one's actions.

      Well that’s not what good social skills are. Autistic people are very kind and compassionate
