Does anyone else feel like a burden?
I am 19 years old and autistic and I feel like a burden constantly. I feel like this because everyone always has to explain something to me. Idk if they're micromanaging me or not but it's pretty difficult especially if I forget something. I've had to be reminded multiple times not to take my apron home. While it's been getting easier at my job there are still things I need to be reminded of on a daily basis. I also am non-binary along with being autistic and it's hard because I get called sir or senor at work when that's not my gender. I also have gotten dirty looks for buying makeup. I was so nervous in that store that it caused one of the employees to ask if I was alright. All of this makes me feel like a burden. I'm also not good at trusting people and I always wonder if they're talking behind my back.
