      Nah no worries haha. I hang out around yappers all the time since we all have adhd, but i got the kind that makes me not talk at all except the occasional 10/10 joke that lands perfectly and then it’s time to stfu again.

      I do hope that i eventually find a better therapist because i have a hard time connecting with my friends emotionally and there is actually little motivation to meet them outside of “being social is good for brain”.

        same on the last part

        I think solitude is good tbh

        Too much can be bad

        but i have never felt like I was truly away from people

        especially from people i don’t like

        i have my own room though in my house

        but i am still with people that I don’t like or that make me uneasy

        and the spectrophobia doesn’t help

        the spectrophobia doesn’t help at all sometimes lol

          Spectrophobia sounds like a harsh hand to be dealt ngl.

          I am doing okay alone. I just do wish that sometimes i had an actual drive to meet people.

          The issue of also makes it hard to organize because technically i only cognitively care about humans and the world. Emotionally i really don’t get much of the “i care about this” chemicals.

          but i am still with people that I don’t like or that make me uneasy

          My roommates are okay, but mutiple mentally disabled people living together is a damn mess. On one hand everyone understands what it’s like having your problems not be respected, on the other hand- do the damn dishes pls😭

            Yeah, depression can cause people to stop, say, taking a shower consistently or cleaning up a little.

            Also, I prefer to be with “happy” people if I can help it.

            No obsessive or constant trauma-dumping or “venting,” which can almost immediately depress the mood or atmosphere around you.

            But honestly, anything would be better than my suburban residential home lol

              Sameeee. Honestly, i love neurotypicals sometimes because they are so easy to deal with in my experience.

              No obsessive or constant trauma-dumping or “venting,” which can almost immediately depress the mood or atmosphere around you.

              Absolutely. My GF does sometimes drift into venting too much to me because her mental health also prevents her from seeing her friends and venting to them.

                my Mom (the only one in my family I can say that I love) does this regarding my own dad

                and it gets tiresome
