i think the hardest thing (only hard thing tbh) about my new job is that i'm masking a lot more than i'm used to. between that this team swings a lot more to the neurotypical side if the spectrum than my last office, and just plain getting to know new (NT) people and how to talk to them, it's kinda a lot.
i find myself feeling like i've expended a lot of energy when i don't think i did a lot, but i know i had to navigate holding up a conversation with my coworkers. and it's been a while since i've been around this many new people (and i've never quite been in the current situation of new people + aware i'm autistic + have self confidence and don't feel like everyone hates me for merely existing) and apparently my social processing delays are a bit noticeable ^_^;; like hang on a second i'm buffering.
anyway i just really want to take a nap
