You want to sort out your digital files, but you don’t know how.
You either get lost in the maze of folders or unrelated files crowd the same space driving you mad.

Autism: ‘Hhhhm?’
ADHD: ‘You are able to sort 400 emails in an hour, but it takes you over an hour to respond just to one. It doesn’t make sense.’

I got #ADHD for birthday!
Today I turned 49 and I finally realised I’m ADHD on top of being officially diagnosed as #Autistic.
Yay me!

So, I joined reddit Autistic community and wrote a post asking for help and advice regarding my business-related communication. It got deleted. I can understand being rejected and misunderstood by NTs but getting the same treatment from my own? WTF do I have to do to be actually heard?

Yesterday I had one of those neuro days when I felt unimportant, unseen, lonely, and sorry for myself.
Those days are hard. They feel never-ending.
But I've learnt that this dark cloud covering the sun will pass.
Sooner or later it always does.
And seeing the sun, even if brief, is worth it.
