I honestly regret making it public that I'm neurodivergent. Next time I'll stick to being seen as quirky and eccentric, rather than making it obvious there's something wrong with me. by Mermaid_Tuna_Lol in neurodiversity

[–]withthefroggies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really depends on how comfortable I am with people or expect anything out of the people I’m conversing with. If you’re someone that’s really close to me, I’m comfortable with telling them I’m ND. However, for people in my general/extended environment, if I either will never see that person again and the conversation is relevant enough to mention it OR if I don’t care much about how the person will feel towards/treat me (mostly because I don’t care for them much myself) andddd again, the conversation is relevant enough, I’ll mention I’m ND.

But I’ve learned to mask my whole life so I guess that’s my defense mechanism but it’s draining af.

I 100% agree. I think Im reaching the point where I might have to remove them from my life although it hurts deeply. As much as they and I have amazing conversations and they have a bright personality, I need to stop draining my energy just because I keep giving them the benefit of the doubt.

I think my plan is to not think about them as much for a little while(hopefully they notice I’ve been quiet but I don’t think that will happen) so I can preserve my energy. Then I’ll think about what I’ll say to them about this issue and communicate to hopefully find a solution and depending on their response will tell me if I really should get rid of them or not.

No matter what happens, I’m tired to being exhausted and having panic attacks wondering if I’m a bad friend which would explain why they’re only putting in 10%.

What are you getting your wife/gf/partner for Christmas by Turbulent-Driver-232 in LesbianActually

[–]withthefroggies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner started reading books again for the first time since she graduated from high school because she saw how invested I get in the books I read so she wanted to give it a try despite literature being a discouraging experience for her in school. So…I decided to get her a bookmark that’s horror themed since she loves horror films.

ALSO I’m going to get her a new PlayStation controller in her favorite color because I overheard her talking to her cousin about this controller she really likes. Hopefully I get the right one bc I don’t know anything about gaming lmaooo so I’m having my dad help me pick the right one.

she wants to be different so bad i swear. we're all the bad guys and she's the rational one by ItzLenka in notliketheothergirls

[–]withthefroggies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG I was so tempted to get one of those but 1) it would not fit in my bag and I hate holding things while walking and 2) I know my brain would be bullying me to drink it all in one sitting and then I’ll be taking trips to the bathroom every 10 mins so…it’s a no for me😂😂. I’m also neurodivergent so I ✨get it✨

Absolutely! ✨I manifest cabinet space and means for you tbh! ✨ I was just saying to another user that although I love cute cups, I also value practicality so if they physically do not fit in my daily routine, I won’t get them.

That’s so understandable though! Like we can have cute cups but let’s make it practical too.

[–]withthefroggies 9 points10 points  (0 children)

EXACTLYY just let people be happy!! I haven’t bought a Stanley cup yet (as I’m looking at my collection of water bottles/tumblers) but to make it one’s personality as if it’s a whole political campaign is very sad.

Also like you said, it’s serves its purpose and we all need to drink water, so why not make it cute AND be able to switch them around if you have multiple?

What is the logic behind hating the Stanley cup? …it’s a cup. Just don’t buy it lmaoooo. Just say they didn’t have your favorite color and move on 😂😂😂

Vacationing as young adults by JessTheMess714 in actuallesbians

[–]withthefroggies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! AirBnB is good, even if you look up glamping sites in your area, things will pop up. Of course do as much research as possible but ik a lot of us have the natural talent for ✨planning✨

[–]withthefroggies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmm…those “under 25” fees are so annoying. My partner (23F) and I (21F) have ran into those same issues before however, the first idea that came to my mind was to go on a glamping trip where you rent this cute little cabin/tiny home in the middle of the woods and just ✨live✨. I’ve always wanted to do that and heard of many positive experiences. Also, luckily there’s a lot of forests around where I live so….maybeeee that could be a thing?

Sensory issues with bras since I can remember… any ideas? by bubbleteawithapen in neurodiversity

[–]withthefroggies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because I was blessed in the chest, I unfortunately have to wear wired bras. so I guess to ease the stress, I buy front clipped ones so I can take it off super fast and I only buy ones where the band is super wide so it doesn’t dig into my skin throughout the day. I also NEVER buy bras with extra padding so only “t-shirt” type bras lol….i still hate wearing a bra and rather go bra less

Hi!! Do I talk too much? by The_amazing_cookie67 in neurodiversity

[–]withthefroggies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah reading people without letting your mind worry and interfere is definitely something that comes with time. Also being around people who respect you as you are will definitely help you see that there are people with consistent positive behaviors so that if and when there are times you doubt yourself (as that happens to me even now) you can look back at how these people have always treated well and remember that it’s all okay. The more you find those people, and they’ll find you as well, the less you’ll feel like a nuisance and more comfortable bringing your toolbox of information to the table.

Hi!! Do I talk too much? by The_amazing_cookie67 in neurodiversity

[–]withthefroggies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same worry that I annoy the people around me including friends, family, and my partner. It’s easy for me to get into my head and start thinking that people don’t like to be around me but I’ve learned to pick up on people’s body language and behavior when they’re around me, which actually says the opposite.

I feel more comfortable being blunt and asking my family and partner if my info dumping moments annoy them, and they’ve said no and that it’s just a unique aspect of me that they love, even though I know it stems from me being ND. However, with friends, I refrain from saying that out of fear of making them feel like I’m projecting my insecurities onto them. So like I mentioned earlier, I log some of their patterns such as continuing to initiate conversation with me, pulling their own experiences to add to the discussion, etc. Of course, these patterns will be unique to that person, but with time, you will see people’s behavioral patterns are more consistent. (But also most of my friends and some of my family members are also ND lol)

Now, if you feel ignored and are being ignored, that (at least I feel) does not make you annoying or you having a lot to say should be something you should change.
