I’m trying to remember the word, for losing the ability to feel joy, a-something, anhedonia, like the inability to hedonize, be hedonistic, enjoy things? Is that what’s going on, that’s classic trauma and depression and the treatment would be for that.
.
Or is it really only output, work?
I guess I think of it all together for myself, if I’m writing I’m happy, I can’t touch the guitar if I’m not somehow momentarily happy.
Sorry, feels intrusive. 💜

Feb 22th I experienced major stress episode.I'm autistic and my only meaning of life is art and such, and after that I lost all my creative intuition and complex array of feelings connected to it. Almost no sexual attraction too

How long does it take to recover from severe stress? And generally what's the med protocols to treat something like I described (in autistic ppl)?

Hey, fellow #neurodivergent folks! Especially fellow #AuDHD folks.

Do you have a flirt radar?
I do not.
I never know when anyone is flirting with me.
Almost all the time when it does happen, someone else has to point it out to me & even then, I usually don't see/understand what they're talking about.
I do not know how to flirt either.
I am very direct. In the past, my straight forward nature has intimidated many NTs & some NDs who haven't invested much time in getting to know me better.
I'm quite friendly & engaging with almost anyone whom I find interesting & seems to share similar core values. It doesn't matter what gender, if any, they identify with either.
My straight forward friendly style seems to make many CIS guys think I'm interested in more than platonic friendship, when I am not.
If I like anyone more than just a platonic friend, I am pretty open about telling them that, directly.
If I don't say it - don't assume more than I actually say. I have this thing called, emotional maturity.

Continued thread

Neurodivergent person stuck, please provide assistance by helping me choose :blobcatpensivepray: :neurodiv:

Question for the Fediverse: Where would I be able to purchase Neurodivergent (Infinity Symbol) pins for Autism Acceptance month—preferably from creators and/or vendors who identify as neurodivergent themselves?

I’m trying to combat misinformation about Autism locally—current political situation notwithstanding—and thought that just making people more aware of self-advocacy would help.

Thank you in advance!
