Gives an idea of what it feels like to feel ✨different✨. Feeling not listened to and constantly misunderstood.
Great for the highly masking autistic crowd

I have autism, and I just found out last year. One of my friends who’s also on the spectrum showed me this chart template and said it really helped her identify things that affect her day-to-day life. The more a section is filled in, the more it affects you or it’s more of a struggle. I wanted to share this for other neurodivergent folks, even though I think it’s mainly used for autism specifically. If you can’t read my handwriting, I can re-type the different sections to clarify. Hopefully this helps somebody! ❤️

I don't have many friends from severe CTPSD and probably a hint of autism. At least I had an ex yell at me that I'm not normal, while I was standing on a sidewalk and holding a baby.
He kept bringing up issues and problems, while I brought up practical solutions. He did not like that.
I had another ex who very sweetly interpreted body language for me in real time. But then he wanted me to speak/respond in certain ways he'd watched on TV. I read books more than I watched shows growing up.
I'm sorry I'm not normal. I'm sorry I'm not programmed in the same language.
I often felt people were speaking a foreign tongues, despite us all using English. The hidden/true meanings of what they said seemed like common knowledge to them, while I took it at face value, or struggled to translate what they were really telling me.
Lately I'm running on vibes and actions. Words are whatever.

Since some big life changes that have left me feeling incredibly alone. I’ve had time to reflect on it and I wanted to share what has helped me so far..
1. loneliness, in its solitude, is an emotion, a way in which we feel. I’ve found it so difficult to stop thinking ‘I have no one and I am alone’. but try to replace it with ‘I am feeling lonely right now, how can I stop this?’ Everything is temporary, including this feeling.
2. Find autonomy with your time. When I became lonely I soon became depressed. A vicious cycle of feeling lonely but only refining yourself to your bed and room. You don’t need to do things with people to help this feeling. Just do the thing! find hobbies and activities that you enjoy first. It gives you more autonomy and confidence.
3. You probably don’t need that person that you think will ‘fix’ the problem. How you feel should not be dependent on anyone but yourself.
Any other tips? I still feel like shit. It’s just some realisations I’ve had.

This is mine:D. I took it in Bali, the two people at the bottom make it just that bit more personal.

having the freedom to be entirely yourself around new people and feeling all flirty and hot is so fun. Someone just made me fudge for our first date and it’s so nice.
i just love meeting new people.. especially when there is sexual undertones. it makes it so much more exciting and interesting
