For those who struggle to fit in and must undergo great change to do so... when you fake it, pretend, hide those things that just aren't accepted in the NT world. When you discard your personality in favor of a neurotypical imitation. Do you ever miss it?

I'm not diagnosed but I've changed myself so much, and still do, and I miss my old self a lot.

I won't explain how I have changed or the reasons for it, but I can't possibly revert to how I was. It's almost like trying to unlearn how to walk.

I have changed in some ways that I like in some ways I don't. I am going back to the "old me" in certain ways and it feels good!
