Good news: autistic social and emotional and everything else holiday related burnout is manageable because I can hyper focus on Pokémon scarlet all day since I don’t have classes

Bad news: screen headache and EDS joints make my fingers hurt with the switch if I hold it too long

Good news again: got money so I’m ordering myself either finger braces or compression gloves since my hand joints have gotten worse.

#anyways I’ll post about sv for a bit but I’m going to still take a couple days before I’m like. talking to people again #I’m so extroverted that I sometimes forget I’m still autistic and get that social burnout #and i sometimes feel like I should be able to bounce back even though I know that’s not how that works #I’m so ised to being a daily social person that when I need to leave friends on read for a bit I feel bad #even though I know they understand #there’s also a ‘I’m almost 21 and should be able to deal with it’ feeling but I know that’s just internalized stuff #anyways I’m doing ok though #what I LOVE about tumblr is I can just yell into the void and I don’t have to actually converse #like I’m letting everyone know how I’m doing without it being a conversation #which is the autistic dream tbh #maybe that’s why there’s a billion of us here
