i feel so isolated. not necessarily socially, but just... connection-wise, i guess? particularly in real life. i really don't have anyone i could consider a "peer" because my life is just so... idk. non-conventional? affected by the biological hazard cocktail of fucky chemicals in my brain? my highschool friends have all gone off to college and are out of town and. y'know. doing college shit. my professional "peers" career-wise are all well into their late 20s and older. mostly far older. i don't have any family members or really any friends my age in general. and it just feels so isolating. and it just kinda sucks seeing my old highschool friends doing irresponsible young adult shit knowing i can't bc almost my entire social circle consists of people who qualify for senior discounts and i just. can't disappoint them bc my income fundamentally depends on them thinking i'm a Responsible Individual. but then i see my professional "peers" doing stuff that i fundamentally can't do because i'm not old enough to be taken seriously enough for and/or not old enough to have the experience for. and i just feel so out of place. constantly. and it's just isolating. but i guess that's just the autism talking
