Weird/ problematic special interests causing guilt

R3v3ng3

Hello, I have been having a problem about feeling guilty for what my special interest is even though I can’t control that I like it. My special interest happens to be a certain rock band who has a very problematic singer. I love the band, the music, and the members. I keep getting made fun of and judged by neurotypical friends for having the band as my special interest since some of their music is problematic too and some of the fans are bad. How do I stop feeling ashamed for what I like, I know I can’t make myself not like the music? (Sorry for unorganized speech my English is not very good and I am stressed)

  • NT's do like to judge and make fun of others, I've liked some things that others really dislike both before and after diagnosis, bands, tv programs, politics etc. What do you get out of being with these people who make fun of you and make you feel embarassed to be yourself? Do you need them in your life? Could you play them at their own game and make fun of some of the things they like?
