#my mom's unacknowledged but probably divergent brain can't handle anything more than maybe a lamp on a flat surface

Apparently, I have some Unresolved Issues.

Almost all of them are regarding My Special Brand Of Neurodivergence That Went Undiagnosed For 36 Years Because Everyone (Mostly My Mother) Kept Telling Me Over And Over That I Was: Just Making Things Harder For Myself and Lazy and Sloppy and Not Willing To Put In The Work. And That I Needed To Be: Nicer and More Polite and Get Over It. Because Not Liking People Was Not An Option Or Even Possible.
