It's insane how much shit I don't do unless I actively force myself, it's concerning
#miranda talking shit#Im disgusting on main again but like personal hygiene is a major thing#I can go weeks and even a month without showering and for me thats not really an issue#I dont have own thoughts that are like 'im dirty i need to clean myself or even i want to'#Like i just tell myself 'aw man its been two-three days i better do it or people will find me disgusting'#I keep myself clean for others mainly tbh. If i would know i wouldnt see any other human for weeks id let myself go#And then theres many if not most people who shower almost every day without fail and enjoy it ... I feel like an dirty alien#Csnt discuss it with anyone either bc then others are just disgusted with me whelp#Now ive learned its pretty common for people with autism to have problems with this sort of thing but for a long time i just thought i was#Sick in the head. I mean i guess i am but like... Knowing why makes it easier to manage and accept i guess#The only things i have an internal clock for that tells me i need is bathroom breaks. Sleep and eat. Everything else i need to remind#And force myself to do and its uh.... I never talk about it bc its weird. Majority of my friends think im... Well not normal but ya know#Not super sick or whatever. But these sorta invisible things are really a big struggle for me and i can never discuss them lol#Most of my friends know i got autism but 95% of them have a limited knowledge of that diagnosis so they are usually like 'oh social things#Are hard for you ok' but then i also have an entire suitcase with basic things i struggle to manage bc my brain is like this and no one#Know about it. Im sure many of my friends wonder why im not... Studying or working or doing something productive#Bc i dont... Sound sick or look sick. How the fuck does one explain you struggle to function on a basic level to normal people#Part of me hates... Being able to fit in at an glance. Like i am odd but unless i explain anything i can pass for normal#Always feel like i need to explain and justify myself bc of it i guess... And i cant or dont dare#Many of my friends are well... I guess positive which is cool but being told you can do things you cant is maddening#If i ever get work it wont be 9-5 and it wont be 5+ days per week ill never be able to do that and keep myself alive#Some of my friends are like... Oh you can be anything you want (: and i mean nice thought and sentiment but very untrue#Im genuinely banned from doing some careers with my diagnose and since i dont have the drive to persue anything im uh yea#Sure people like me can have pretty normal life and learn to manage it well but um i cant see myself doing that#I'll learn to manage better as i age but I'll never have a stable job or/and get married and have 2.5 kids and a house#And having an friend whos becoming an doctor. One whos an dentist surgeon and another who's studying high level of things its like uh#Im the garbage gremlin of any friend group and anytime someone tries to talk about what i want in life when it comes to career im like :)#I wanted to be a debtist wgen i was 8 and after that ive had no genuine want for an career. I thought driving a train would be cool but im#Not allowed to do that bc i got add/autism and not 20/20 eyesight uuuh... Also had an idea to become an watch repair person but i cant with#My tremor. Those have been my three ideas for things my entire life then i got nothing. I dont have any plans i just try to stay alive
