Same goes for me. I used to be an extremely outgoing, spontaneous, energetic, funny, confident person.

This is the product of decades of painful losses connected to unsuccessful relating both professionally and personally. I don't regret the depth that came with it, but I know I could've been a much livelier individual and most of all.....that I could've given a lot of love to someone.


Beautifully put, greentea. I can really identify with what you say.

For me it's not my aspieness, it's the way I have to make so many accommodations for NT people. It's constantly stressful.

That's what I find.
