    Yeah I worked through trying to get accommodations at work, got a small fraction of what I asked for, and have been suffering since. It’s probably in my head, but I feel like it mostly made things worse. This is why people suffer in silence; at least that way there’s no retribution

      they say that they’re very accepting and accommodating, but at the end of the day a capitalist will never do something that’d hurt their bottom line. making money is way more important than throwing scraps to the people making them that money

        It’s been a very humbling experience -was diagnosed later in life and mask/present as “typical”. Seemed to go:

        Me: ahh finally learned why I feel the way I do - I’ll feel so much being able to accept myself!

        Them: hey put that mask back on! No one wants to see that!!

        At least when I was delusional, there was less self loathing
