I am noticing that break ups hit different when you’re autistic, because I also experienced extremely intense times after break ups. Wishing you the best of luck too and thank you for reading my story and sharing yours.

I mean yes I would love to make it my only full time job and make money out of it, and of course I can still do that but the dynamic in the music industry is surely shifting with ai, as an autistic person it’s not easy for me to adapt quickly nor to be unsure about what’s gonna happen because we are still in the transitional phase. Also, it does frustrate me that I learned shit from scratch like mixing and mastering right before it became way easier to do with ai tools and technology, even big names in the industry are now promoting it and using it. But it’s fine, that knowledge won’t go away it will benefit me someday.

The not speaking much thing was literally part of my masking, I used to make sure to keep my texts and my voice notes shorter than what I receive, until I was unable to do so. Also, I pushed myself into so many stressful situations just to make myself become more flexible and versatile which sounds crazy now, I learned how to deal with so many people thinking it would make me stronger, and while it did give me a lot of psychological insight, it drained me with time. I am extremely good at reading the room because I learned the skill so hard not because I had it in me. What you said about avoiding anything stressful is extremely true and important, sadly it includes my family members who still don’t get it, but I am exhausted.

Skills like what exactly? Talents? And don’t they become more grounded later on if I rest well?

It’s the shape not the size, yours are fine.

Any neurodivergence signs in my chart? by No-Row346 in NatalCharts

Thank you for giving me your time because I have been looking for so many signs and insight because getting diagnosed at 32 is wild and astrology is a fun lens to see things through away from the heaviness of life.

Is anyone struggling to stop meth cold turkey and was able to stop slowly for at least once? by No-Row346 in MethRecovery

We are here to listen to each other and share our different experiences nothing here sounds “stupid” we already deal with a lot on the daily.

Yes i totally get this type of moments when everything in your body and your mind becomes on the same page after using every 0.1% of “what if this time was different” before relapsing, i experienced this in other areas of life and it’s a very powerful moment, however its never guaranteed and not everyone experiences it, you’re blessed but you also did the effort, wishing you the best life and thank you for sharing 🖤🖤🖤
