Pretty early on, I got told to stop asking 'why/how?'.

I'm not sure why they thought I was questioning them specifically and not out of curiosity.

Stopped me from Questioning things during school which I think just made me mask heavily unfortunately.

I was and had been undiagnosed my whole life until recently.

I love learning, Tinkering and Data.

Heck yeah!

I've had to spend money on a new pair of wired earbuds as my current pair puts pressure on ears when I wear ear defenders over them.

I just don't like spending money on things unless absolutely necessary however I feel I do need these new ones (if they don't have the same issue..).

Just seems wasteful when my current pair are fine otherwise.

I'm not going to stop using my current pair as they're fantastic, I just can't use them when I have defenders on.

Fingers crossed these additional ones don't cause the pressure due to the shape.

I feel the opposite, Getting late diagnosed made me feel less broken as things started to click why I am how I am.

Rather than trying to blend in and "fix" who I am, I've started to just not bother trying.

I've got great memory, Everything gets sorted away in virtual filing cabinets however finding that info again sometimes gets difficult due to retaining so much. I can't regurgitate/share the info, I just know a lot of things.

Things like Names sometimes takes a minute to recall, Especially if I've not spoken to them in a little while.

Does anyone else sometimes feel alien when you learn that the general public cares about all sorts and I just don't even think about or understand why I should care about it.

I've got next to no stress about the average stuff everyone else (that aren't on the spectrum) does, Yet the little details of generally living my life etc make me really stressed/upset if it isn't correct or going how I think it should.

I got a small(It's about a 15cm square) dehumidifier, I don't expect it to help much with the heatwave but I can see results of it in the collection tank already after only being on for a few hours.

I've spoken twice since I last mentioned the no speaking so that's an improvement.

I am medicated for Anxiety/Depression but they wasn't prescribed for ASD because Medication can't fix what isn't broken.

I've not spoken IRL for over a week now, I'm not sure what caused me to recess into this state.

I'm not really open to discussing because I don't know why. It's just frustrating me.

Same!

I found this picture online so I can't remember original source.

Went outside with a folding chair to a field with some shade early in morning before it got to today's peak temperatures.

It was really good and had a nice breeze, plenty of butterflys about. I only saw them flapping so didn't get a good look at their patterns.

I made a cake with dark chocolate chips, It had a lid on it which is why it has a flat top.
