I'll let you, OP borrow my brain anyday if you'd like to experience what it's like to live always expecting things to go wrong.
TIL neurotypicals literally just go about their day and work life just assuming everything will go right
Yeah, it's so alien to me. I'm envious, though, must feel nice.
We really don't
I'm nothing if not ~~non-neurotypical~~ neurodivergent haha.
That is not what I have observed. I do kinda wonder sometimes however
Me: right so we said we would be there by 630. If we leave within the next five minutes we should be there at 6:25
Wife: it's fine
Me: just you know we could leave now and no one has to have any anxiety about being late.
Wife: they aren't going to care
Me: true they won't really care that much but we did say 6:30. Wouldn't it be nice to not be worried? Like what if we make a wrong turn and have to double back? We would still be on time if we left now.
TIL neurodivergents think neurotypicals are neuroperfect. You're an idiot.
Right??? Like wtf I thought everyone just thought about how everything could go wrong all the time. You mean people do things and expect to succeed instead of expect to fail??? This is legitimately wild to me.
i don't expect things anymore, it goes how it goes. if it doesn't go how it's supposed to go, i'll see if i can fix it.
I wish I could do that. Currently I'm trying to start a bussines, but my mind just keeps coming up with the most unlikely terrible scenarios that might happen and convincing me to never try anything new so that I can't fuck it up.
