growing up being autistic but not knowing is just *hiding in room while people are over* *getting tired and needing to recharge after the smallest chores* *getting called a gifted kid* *knowing that you're "weird" because people are making fun of you but not knowing how to stop being weird* *having adults tell you how "mature" you are* *getting in trouble for not doing work* *convincing yourself that you're just lazy and stupid because you can't make yourself do work* *getting really invested in "weird" media*
ALTfuuuuuuuuck
