| A part of me is still not believing my current reality. That the unmanageable is manageable. Now, I can ignore myself. Focus better in what's more important. A part of me just isn't believing that my wish -- the kind of adult I'm supposed to be and imagine myself as a young adult had everything went... |

| None. For some weird reason, no one ever resonated with me. Nearly a year and a significant change later, still none. :lol: In fact, I relate even way less with enumerating autistic traits now -- than my then fluctuating between dichotomous and paradoxical autistic traits. Never found a that charac... |

Or how that stupid transitional crap after eating or on a tiring walk won't affect me much as before. Just... Figuring it out. Truly figuring it out. An... |

| I don't exactly have self esteem issues. Mine is more in lines of double empathy than internalized crap. But I have a real frustration over values mismatching. In which most people value or not value me in ways I either had no idea it's the case or ways I don't even want them to. Like... People can ... |

| There's a good chance that I'm having mild side effect on iron pills. Because I took one 75mg dosage in 4-5 days in a row, instead of every other day or so. If I look back at my younger days, I'd disregard any potential side effects. Dismiss it as just another female thing. :roll: Like everyone else... |
