The end of spring term is a really hard time for me. There's so much to do, and so many different things to do, and the no rest plus constant task switching absolutely obliterates me because of my autism which, since I'm really not out about it, I can't even talk about or get help for.
It leaves me feeling deeply worthless.
And even if/when people tell me otherwise round this time of the year, it doesn't feel believable, because I can barely function for weeks on end.
@Impossible_PhD Gentle reminder that your worth is not tied to your ability to perform things, much less to the ability to perform them without internal torment.
You have worth. No ifs, no buts.
I know it's unlikely to sink in through your fused skin of stained glass, but we'll all repeat it often enough that eventually it would find a crack to slip through. 💜
