I am Me

Oh no @Rhymster Do you never dream or was last night just a dreamless sleep? It's hard when sleep isn't on your side, it's no fun waking up still feeling exhausted

@Ru-bee I am 49 and have had 16 dreams in my life

I understand, I feel the same way.

The biggest thing that has helped me is to just be 'me' and not worry about what others think. I know it's easier said than done. I still struggle with it in certain environments such as work. I was diagnosed with autism in 2023 and I am still learning not to hide who I am but I've come a long way. I started slowly revealing my true personality and built up from there.

The right people will find you. It's true. I believe that we attract what we put out and I attract all the quirky people haha, but it's a good thing because we understand each other! I've always been one to have a very close friend or two but never a larger group. I feel okay with this now because that's what works best for me.

You will find your crowd, even if it's only a small amount of people like me. I always tell myself that it's better to be happy and myself in my own company than miserable and pretending for other people.

@puppydoglover I am alone since I found my only friend dead three months ago

hey @Rhymster just saw your recent post. i'm so sorry to hear that you lost your friend recently, that must've been incredibly tough and painful.

sending you gentle hugs 💙
