"Giftedness" is an incredibly misleading word

It completely misses the point of the condition

I honestly miss being a prep cook

Shit was so repetitive when I did it that I could just actually focus on it with my damn adhd. It's a shame I can't physically do it anymore because that would be good steady work for me

Accursed spine can go fuck itself

One of the perks of being a #gifted (I don't like the term but lack of a better one) #HSP is that I catch most of the feeling and dynamic in the room. It's not an outside observation but rather that a feeling.

It is useful in social situation situations, but sometime, it is a real difficulty when they are tension in a group. Even if I'm not directly concerned, I'm still deeply affected and people think that I am overreacting.

I think my key take away from today at the #NDIS and mental health conference was we need to spend less time trying to help square pegs fit into round holes and start making more square holes.

We can do much more to make our society more accessible for people with different needs, be it mental health, psychosocial disability or neuro diversity.

Perhaps also I could wear my neurodiversity with a bit more pride. It isn't a secret but I don't really share it in professional contexts.
