Are you a likeable person?

I am not. I kinda understand, I know I'm different. I really don't care except it always bites me at work. I don't understand why. I am on time, don't call out, do my job efficiently and I'm a team player. Nobody ever tells me what I'm doing wrong, I just feel retaliated against. My bosses will suddenly treat me like I have the plague. My hours get cut. It's an overall feeling of not belonging. Bordering on rudeness directed at me. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. But I guess I have to find a different job now.

I’m highly likeable in small doses but never know when to leave 😂

Could you be touched by a tism?
I’m very ADHD and all my best friends are too. We get along better because we all think the same way.

@Bleed I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and it's has been helping me to understand myself and my relationships with other people better.
We see the world differently.

@sben4200 I use to get annoyed at the ADHD vids thinking that’s everyone get a life. Then my daughter was diagnosed and I realised it’s not everyone, it’s us 🤦🏼‍♀
Honestly it explains so much 🤪

@Bleed I'm pretty sure I'm touched by the tism. I've been talking to my therapist about it because it's something I've always struggled with. Not much I can do except keep bouncing around until people get sick of me then move on again.

With what we know about mental health I'm just always shocked how impatient and not understanding people are.

@ScreamingFox We show we care if different ways from neurotypical people and can be perceived as rude or selfish. You just need to find your people. I’ve been lucky to find at least one other person in most of my jobs. I currently work for a mental health charity and I think most of us are divergent.
