I've accepted that I'm never going to be normal, and I've stopped trying. Instead, I find people and places where I can be my abnormal self freely because I have every right to exist how I want as long as I'm not hurting others. Those people that like to throw shame around, whether explicit by saying it or implicit through gestures, can dump it on someone else. Leave me out of that.
Normal people maintain stability. We shake things up. Play your part. Share minute details. Create art. Feel the vibration of life. You be you, booboo ❤️
Oh yeah I've been there before, I want to disseminate as much details as possible in case it changes the dr's outcome. But in my experience they're probably tuning me out because they already got a diagnosis and treatment from the first few things I described to them. They're professionals and good Drs will also know every permutation of what you're describing and so it kinda comes off as not paying attention.
Although I do agree better bedside manners could help. But I also think there's probably a lot of Drs on the spectrum too and I know of I was a doctor I'd probably come off as tuning out people like all the time, despite actually listening intently. Dunno if any of this helped just my exp.
