Does anyone else ever get drained by NT people who once they realise we're ND they're constantly checking in to the point of annoyance, and when we say we're doing ok they say "Really though? Are you sure?" as if we're always masking it even when we are actually ok?
I know the people who do this to me mean well , but when I'm actually ok and they keep asking, or do the head tilt or the hard stare, it feels really infantilising as if we don't know our own mind.
"Yes I'm ok. I'm well aware of my energy levels and I'm very open about my feelings (if I feel safe with you) so if I'm really not ok I will tell you. Now please stop asking because pretty soon I won't be ok!"
