Just getting around to see your post now, but don't worry too much about it; it sounds like you had quite a rough winter as well. I didn't get the chance to post my own stories, either. I'm sorry for your loss, and sorry to hear what you went through. I don't hold it against you. Life has been throwing some real bricks at us lately. I hope 2026 is a better year for you and that life goes back to resembling something closer to your baseline. 🫢🏻

From the bottom of my heart, you have all my sympathy and support. Individually those things would be difficult to process. Piling them on like that would put anybody out of commission. I'm sorry for your loss. It's good you didn't apologize for taking the time you need, because you don't owe anyone your time.

I'm glad you're here, and that you know we're here for you. I'm glad you're taking care of yourself. My inbox is always open. As someone who only received their own autism diagnosis a couple of years ago, I know how the pieces fitting together suddenly disrupts everything because you have the full picture. Funny how that works.

All the hugs 🀍✨ Take your time

Thank you πŸ«‚πŸ©ΆπŸ–€ I appreciate the support so much. I’m working on the β€œunmasking” bits. It’s still a lot to process, but I know I’m not alone. I’ve missed being here, and I’m glad to call you my friend 🩢🩢🩢

I don't think my parents believe my diagnosis. But I'm sorry yours reacted so poorly! Glad you're back to writing here, though. hugs!

It was definitely rough. I’ve missed my little bubble here. I have so much to catch up on with Phil and Jessica!

To find that out about your parents knowing - I’d have had one too. Hell, I opened the article because my panic attacks are back 🫠 I hope you can process and get to a healthier place soon. ❀️
