I’m autistic and struggle with depression. A lot of my sadness comes from how isolating the world feels. I want connection but social stuff wears me out. I wish more people were patient with difference.

🛠️ How They Cope:

I have tried talking to others, but it feels awkward. I talk with my mom and little sister though!

💭 What They Wish Others Understood:
