Hello, I am new here.

I am undiagnosed but have been suggested as probably being on the spectrum by my therapist. So I thought maybe this could be a good place to explore this issue I’ve noticed recently.

I mean stuff like personal appearance? It’s fine, nobody will say anything negative and I know that, but thinking about changing my beard style or removing it all together or I’m a little bored with some of my clothing. But thinking about doing something about it, I just know everyone will have to address it and ask the same questions or make the same comments about it and, I don’t know, like feel mentally exhausted just thinking about it.

Does anyone else experience this? It feels incredibly silly and annoying.

    That makes total sense. I think I usually err on the side of thinking things are a bigger deal than they are and worry about something no one will even consider.

      Yeah, cause sometimes I overlook something I thought was inconsequential and it turned out to be a big deal. Usually, they could have been resolved easily, but some people insist on making it a big deal. I’m learning to recognize and stay away from people like that, which has been helpful.
