To be clear mine isn't that bad luckily. It is fascinating though. Aphantasia is another interesting rabbit hole but be warned you may have it without realizing and you may not like this knowledge.

It involves the "mind's eye"

I just like to put it all out there on my terms so I don't agonize over social stuff so much like... fuck it I'll be frank about my baggage and faults and you know what? People were really accommodating. New people in my life even, I know it was a blessing but also I don't think that these type of people are as uncommon as we think.

It gave me much more anxiety trying to work some social system I didn't quite know after isolation, I was honest instead. I do wonder what the difference is though because I completely and fully understand how it could be alienating, was it the context or the type of trauma, or the attitude, environment, idk! I'd always do it in either casual new BFF for the night at a party....

Oh. OH. I MISUNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT.
