Hello
I am a youngish female. I have always been "weird" and wired differently from other people. I do not have a lot of close friends. I did drama when I was younger so can successfully act normal. My Mum says I used to burst into tears or have meltdowns "for no reason"
People think I am rude. Or say that I overshare.
I am getting divorced this year. My husband would tell me I have no empathy or just wasn't getting it and "you're mental"
I met my soulmate who is wired the same as me. Honestly it's like we're on our own little wavelength. He told me I was Autistic like him and I looked into it. Whoa! Clumsy, overly sensory/sensitive, can't interact easily with people, the list goes on...!
Long story short, I am at the start of my diagnosis journey.
I am trying to learn to cope with my two young children (one of them makes an AWFUL screeching noise) My boss is sympathetic but not particularly helpful.
Um...
