Hi all! Figured I'd say "hi" before jumping into any other threads. I stumbled into learning about my own neurodivergence last year after struggling to hold down a job for a good chunk of my adult life. It's still crazy to me that I managed to hide so many things from even myself for all these years.

Anyway, the burnout continues, and I still have a lot to figure out. I've not always been comfortable with social stuff, and am basically completely off of social media. Pretty sure I haven't posted on a bulletin board for 15+ years. However, I've realized how badly I want to connect with some other ND folks, so here I am.

I could write more, but I'll leave it at that for now. Nice to meet you all! :heart:

Welcome to WP! I hope you continue visiting.

And I can't do much more than encourage you to persevere.

Sometimes getting to a good place in life requires going through a not so good place.
