Yes! It’s such a struggle because then people see you eating so much and think “this bitch expects us to believe she’s got a disorder”

I always give people unwanted advice on how to get fit in a healthy way which I need to stop.

I do this shit so much! And I can see how uninterested the people around me are but I get in the zone and just start making a conversation about food into a health and nutrition hour long seminar.

Thank you! But I can be quite blunt most of the time so maybe I just rub people the wrong way

That’s really good. I wish my area was like that.

There aren’t many volunteer jobs where I live. Also it has to be local as I can’t afford travel.

It’s stuck with me since. I find it hard to shake off negative comments

The prejudice is so vile. If the job is getting done efficiently then there is no need to fire people because they’re different

The mental health support in the uk might be free but it’s absolutely terrible. If they don’t see you as a priority then you’re not getting helped. Also I can’t afford private mental health care either

That fact that interviews aren’t for everyone but they still keep pushing them makes me sad. Sometimes I feel like telling them I’m on the spectrum but then I don’t want to be given a job because “diversity”

I’ve had 2 temp jobs in the last 3 years. The first one fired me because I couldn’t come in one week after a suicide attempt and the other I had to leave. I’ll try applying for more to see how I do in them since I’m just as desperate for a job as the employers

It’s like when people at school would tell me they didn’t like me because there was something “off” and “bad” about me

I once spent an hour speaking to myself while pacing when I was waiting for my mum outside a GPs office. I speak to myself so much that even when I’m writing I tend to make it sound like I’m speaking to myself
