I have this issue where anytime I find an activity that I love so much that it makes some of my stress away and I can engage in a lot, someone gets mad at me for being so "distant" or "aloof" and makes it impossible for me to engage in this activity or enjoy it because they constantly put pressure on me to pay attention to them and it's frustrating.
Relatable, man! Everything I do, I have to do right--so I sometimes annoy people by disappearing into a room to write, fix things, listen to records, or whatever. Autism opens us up to having some incredible capacities for good hobbies, but the rest of that stuff kind of comes with the territory.
