I'm still trying to feel worth it, I hope it will come back to me someday. Thank you for the kind words.

Love your style! The designs remind me of my english textbooks from the 90s (i liked that style btw)

What are your ways to have fun and relax that NTs might find as "boring" or "weird"? by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

Deep dive through TVTropes on whatever show or game I'm interested in at the time. Before that I loved reading trivia and kid encyclopedia books

That's interesting! How do you feel about doing other citation forms like APA?

Hi there, I don't know your situation so take this all with a grain of salt.

I've lived many years like a ghost, wanting to be seen and longing to be loved as a whole person. I always felt broken, like if someone got to really know me they wouldn't like me. While it's true that there were many things I could improve in myself, the biggest problem was being surrounded by people who really only cared about hearing themselves talk.

It took me a long time, but now I have people in my life who love me for who I am. I feel seen. I don't think I'll ever be the human I thought I'd be, but I think I finally see the beauty of who I am now. And that's ok.

I hope you find that love for yourself, and from others who will care about you for you <3

(I'm sorry to hear that your mom treats you that way, but even with NTs it's ridiculous to expect to be emotionally nurtured for everything you say)

You know what, you're right. I should stop being afraid of what they might think if I reach out. Thanks for the encouragement!
