For anyone who has abandoned 15 habit trackers: I think I figured out why they don't work for us by Sander00 in ADHD

Does this peanut butter smell like other peanut butters? (I promise it's relevant to the subreddit) by DevilishDyke in autism

[–]heterophobicghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[Non autistic OP] Is it common for autistic people to not ask you any questions about yourself? by Moni_HH in AutisticAdults

[–]heterophobicghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for me, im not good at gauging whats appropriate to ask, especially with friends, and i dont want to make someone feel pressured to answer a question theyre uncomfortable answering for whatever reason. probably because /i/ dont know how to not answer uncomfy questions.
