  • How much time is there ? 😁

    To answer with more than a rhetorical : energy depletes fast with complex social interactions (=with strangers, in a formal setting, anytime something is expected of me…). After that I become too tired to process social cues, infer correct tone, understand subtext, etc. Those are the first to go. Then after a point I also become overwhelmed on a sensory level. If I have to stay there for a longer time, back in the day I used to either 1.push through (this inevitably risks creating mistakes, misunderstandings, sometimes conflict) or 2.slither away under some excuse, or even completely stealthily.
    Nowadays however, I realize that this is who I am, and my struggle is legitimate, and I can only do my best. So now I just say it :

    My brain is wired in a way that makes it difficult to survive long interactions, such as this one. I will have to leave now to protect my mental health. Please do not mistake my departure for something else : it is only caused by fatigue. I had a good time, even if I did not express it very outwardly. Bye Cindy

    I feel like I should add I don’t have a diagnostic of any kind

RX relates to a racecar of sorts, not surprising since surgeons are said to be wealthy. Not sure about the script part though : do pharmacists typically double as programmers ? or is it like, a movie script ? in which case it might just all be cinema. There’s more to this message that we understand right now. Keep digging, Mofine. We’ll get 'em
