Dealing with co-workers comments

Hi,

I have AuDHD and I started my first full-time a job two months ago, and basically my job is two-fold:

One: I have been mainly hired to push the company to a more technically advanced position.

Two: I have been hired to also help with day-to-day tasks to ease workload for another team whilst one of their co-workers who did more of those things has taken a three month sabbatical.

Setting aside difficulties managing these two different jobs at the same time, with no clear structure on how from anyone, I keep getting comments from the team when I been away for few hours doing what I was "actually" hired to do. Comments such as "Ready to come back now hm?" or "Must be good to not have to deal with the stress over here..", and I can sense their feelings of frustration so strongly.

It has really started to take a toll on me, because I work super hard and yet I go home with their comments that feels and becomes my "truth", ie that I am lazy and should be let go.

So, I am just wondering, how do you deal with comments from co-workers, or their frustrations, like claiming one is lazy etc when there are no grounds for it?

Would greatly appreciate any help.
