Anyone else tired of being autistic and having adhd. Like sometimes I wake up wishing I was neurotypical because maybe just maybe then I would understand all the social cues/interactions better and have a less burn out not feel so bad about myself

i've been battling this for years. I think the answer is 1. avoid customer service jobs, 2. surround yourself with as many like-minded people as possible. 3. don't waste your time with Normie's.

I would love to keep all the pattern recognition skills but like also be able to tell when someone is lying to me for a joke and be better at communicating things in the moment
