I think I have definitely improved socially since the uni days – especially 2016 onwards I’d say.
I just feel like since my second year of uni – in 2016 – that I have been able to interact with people a lot better.
Having said that, recently I have struggled a bit to be fair, and I have became conscious of it.
But I can get back in the swing of it again.
Plus, I think I just struggle to express myself sometimes.
I don’t know.
And I know when I put my mind to it that I can focus – and be about something real – and be disciplined.
Not that I have always been a saint – but I have been able to have in depth conversations, connect with people etc.
It is really difficult for me as someone who is on the spectrum to understand social norms but I know I can do fine in that sense when I feel comfortable in a certain environment.
Now it is about me getting back to something meaningful – and that may I mean that I look a bit weird or talk different at times – but at least I know that is me being myself.
You have to back yourself at the end of the day, and sometimes you get things wrong.
That was a bit of projecting there – I think.
I mean sometimes I get things wrong – or my opinion can be challenged (and that is fair enough).
I am human – I have always felt a bit weird – but so what.
It is time to use what I have.
