Me: yeah so I am bone tired in a way that is concerning, even to me. I'll sleep 20 out of every 24 hours when I can manage it. I come home from work and just sleep, then wake up to do some work or try and be productive and then go back to bed and wake up exhausted in the morning

My psychiatrist:

My psychiatrist: you're a teacher with autism

#jackshit #the joke here is that i didnt connect the dots between my constant sleeping being from teaching #bestie asked me when i noticed this and I deadass said a month after starting work from the summer #throwback thursday to when my therapist told me i was addicted to sleep in like a real way #sleep is the greatest lack of sensory input and stimulation #so the easiest and surest way to 'reset' from constant sensory overload #and teaching is #sensory hell #even completely nt teachers expereince overstimulation and sensory overload from day to day life in the classroom #i love teaching but i wouldnt inflict it on my worst enemy tbh #that being said any education majors looking at upper elementary hmu because I am full of wisdom and resources #and have 0 people to share it with because no one I know likes upper elementary/middle school XD
