So I am finding people very frustrating. When you talk about your day to day struggles (because they ask) and people respond with “oh I’m like that too!” Or “isn’t everyone like that? Oh I must have autism too” and I’m just like what is going on with the world??? Anyone else had these issues with people????
My experience of suffering from neurological disorders per se (abi + autism) is that most people do one of 3 things in response to my displaying or description of my symptoms.
I still haven’t managed to work out which one is more annoying
It is even more annoying when your own mother does all three, because they are a narcissist. By that I mean someone that downplays the abuse I suffered as a child and my condition, in order to accentuate and magnify their own abuse and condition to obtain sympathy.
That seems awful! I’m so sorry that you’ve had to suffer that!
