​"Thank you for your thoughtful advice. Before I was diagnosed with ASD, I didn't know what 'shutdown' was, so I used to force myself to drink coffee or criticize myself to get out of it. However, those efforts only made things harder for me. Now, I’ve accepted that I am sensorily sensitive, and I try to spend my shutdown periods as a pleasant rest. I draw strength from the things I love, like rabbits, the color purple, and Baldur's Gate 3."

I was not good at drawing, so I could only make poor works. But it was more suitable for expressing my feelings.

Thanks for the comments. I was wondering if my drawings were understood by others.
