For several months now (maybe longer), I’ve been living in a dark place. Even as a very open person about being autistic, I do still mask. Thanks to my loving wife and life partner, Mead Harris, I am on the path to healing. I have a long road ahead, but I am finally getting the help I need.
No need for well wishes or prayers - I’ll be fine in due time. Instead, tell those around you how much you care, spread kindness, help those in need without expectations or conditions, say hello to someone you don’t know, and listen to others with genuine curiosity. Help prevent depression (and related) from occurring rather than turning it around once it’s present.
The world needs so much more empathy, less competition, and a massive amount of accepting of differences. There is no one “right” way to exist, experience the world, and interact with others.
Have a peaceful day and live life authentically.
