No one cares about you or your needs. Routine gets screwed up? too bad that's life. Getting frustrated in class because the teacher isn't answering your question right? Should have asked it better. Zone out and miss the notes? No one else was taking them so you're screwed.

This on top of all of the typical highschool bull

I feel ya pain

HS was difficult for me too. All I wanted to do was go to the library, work on my drawings or go to the woodworking room. Hated sports, didn't like being outdoors, could not focus in noisy classes. Got bullied. Had no idea how to dress myself.

And yet knowbody noticed.
