As I’ve learned to unmask and be my authentic #ActuallyAutistic self, some people like me less, but I like me more. I think it was a worthwhile trade off.
@dramypsyd@actuallyautistic not the same but I went through a similar situation when I was diagnosed as bipolar; my life is better for the people who left and ones I never expected to show up and hold me. Be you, it's worth it
