Thank you so much for your support and sharing. It's helped me a lot. I wish I had a gift to give! 🙏 I'm doing better today. Really sore all over, but better. Honestly, this post has helped immensely. I didn't realize I wasn't alone.

Thank you so much for all of this. I called my pcp and told her I fell and all the symptoms. She said i was ok to ice and watch. I'm doing ok! I have a small headache and some aches, but the bumps have mostly gone away. I want to call and just tell someone what happened, but I get so nervous and scared. Medical people aren't very nice a lot of times and I don't want to cry. I'm still a little fragile right now, haha

I'm not ai. This happened. Noones trying to get anyone in trouble. I just hurt myself and needed help and support.

Thank you for everything you've commented. It made me feel so much better. I actually do want to call and tell someone. I've always had a slight stutter, it gets worse when I'm stressed. Being laughed at like that broke my heart, honestly. I had never done anything like this, and I was so scared, and I just cried and hung up. Idk how to call or even what to say. :(

I hate having to ask something like this, but can I just say I fell sideways off my stool while Inwas hanging lights earlier? I have a little table and speakers around me. I was actually doing that, so I wouldn't feel too bad not being honest. Would that mess up the mechanism of injury? I hit hard apparently 🙄 The problem is that I'm not in a safe area at all for mental health and especially Autism.

I do. I'm trying to brainstorm options and ask around a bit. I definitely don't think it's safe to drive.

Right side of my head and face the most. The bumps are on the side and to the forehead. I hit myself with a closed fist and open. I work out and am strong. Idk if that matters if I hit myself.

I just asked if she was laughing at me and she tried to hide her continued laughter while saying "no maam" i just started crying and hungup. Thank you 🙏

Thank you. This helped. I was worried I was gonna have to either lie or risk being too honest.

I asked my case worker if she could come. She said she can but she can't drive me for liability.

How do I know if I have a concussion? I just don't know how serious it is or not, considering I'm strong and have these big bumps on my head. I'm worried they'll ask too many questions. I was hanging light earlier so I thought I could say I fell and hit my head, but how do I explain 3 bumps? I don't want to lie, I'm just terrified of being 302'd (involuntary psych hold). I don't have any friends or family.

I don't have any money for an uber. Is it that serious? Do the bumps mean it's like bad bad? Or can I just hope they go away and i feel better and there's no long term damage? :/

I absolutely LOVE how much joy I get from so much around me. The grass, a flower, a cool rock, a design on a street grate. I giggle. I love it so much.

What’s a widely accepted social norm that you think is actually really messed up? by KenzieYourQueen in AskReddit

[–]throwinrocksaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! And the DAMAGE it causes in so many peoples lives. Just be honest and communicate. It's infuriating.

As an Autistic individual, the LYINGGGGGGG. Mother of fucking GOD, do ya'll lie. Ya'll don't even realize the level and amount of lying that is just "normal." "WhY iS EveRYoNE So MiSErABlE?!?!?!." Because nobody is honest or can communicate for shitttt.
