Literally every single one of these hit me other than 18, I haven’t notice anything connecting to that one. Or 7 unless requiring things to be ordered by color or size or I can’t focus on anything until I’ve organized them counts.
I didn’t even realize I was doing 9 until stores were mentioned, I can’t go to stores that are usually busy until past 8pm.

Did you just scroll down thinking yes?
So this all describes my BFF to a tee. There might be one or two that aren’t true, but literally all of the rest are things she’s said to me over the uh twenty years we’ve known each other.
Would it be helpful of me to send her this? I don’t know what to do. She’s having a terrible time in her life at the moment and I think a lot of it is that she really does have… there’s not a better phrase for it, special needs, her needs are special, and so they aren’t being met, and solutions other people suggest don’t make sense to her because she doesn’t think the way other people do, and I’ve been tearing my hair out for almost ten years now trying to figure out things that could help her, but I think most of this list is true for her.
I don’t know how to bring it up, though; she’s very preoccupied with being “normal” and fitting in and I think she’d be horribly offended at the suggestion. But I also think it could be an avenue toward her finding more productive solutions for her problems rather than trying to reinvent the wheel. Even knowing something to begin to say to a therapist; she had an awful one that told her that her terrible depression was totally warranted by her situation and so there was nothing he could do for her and she should just go home. Even terms to know to use to look for a therapist!! IDK. IDK!
Anyway. I don’t know what to do but I’m reblogging this to find it later.
