Authenticity

JT

So, I was wondering if anyone else feels this way?

We are encouraged, these days, to just be ourselves. But if you have done this and always found the real you is rejected how on earth are you meant to live in the world authentically?

Just ignore the negative responses and persist? Or, like most people in the world with a heart, do you then adjust your 'self' to be less divisive/offensive/turbulent, in order to find a way to fit? (Mask)

Just struggling to fit a star shaped personality through a round hole atm, and it's made me very depressed

    I tend to soldier through it all regardless. I think the best thing about Autism is Autistic peoples resolute commitment to the truth as they see it.  Or course people will still see things differently and see different truths.  But I like myself and being me, ultimately.
