I don't really need accommodations. What I do need is for people to learn to mind their own business. A lot of people constantly ask me if I'm okay even after I tell them I'm fine. A lot of the time I'm not actually okay. It's just that they can only make things worse. A lot of times when I don't look okay it's painful for me to concentrate on things. Dealing with people who think they know better than me demands a lot of concentration. I'd rather be allowed to daydream and just be ignored.
