All of which I do, but I still have this problem of people talking over me or being dismissive whenever I open my mouth. It's like they see me as a second-class human.


I see NT's in that way , dumb apes in fact , even Drs, imagine that not even being able to DX brain injury Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Their not all bad I suppose at the time one was abe to but nobody took any notice of what she had to say (a bit like me around here) , may be because she was female ?


It's a mans world what are you gonna do about it?

I talked about the problem of feeling you're worth nothing with a friend of mine today. She said that the only thing to do is to be at ease with yourself and not care about the opinion of others. It's the only thing to do, I guess.


Exactly! This is one of The Four Agreements (by Don Miguel Ruiz):

DON’T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.

Not as easy as it sounds, but works. Whatever others think of you… that's their reality. Whatever you think they think of you, and whatever YOU think of you, that's your reality and that's the one that can be changed.

Find like-minded people. People who will accept you just the way you are, and respect you for who you are. Do you deserve any less? Absolutely not!
