Listitems I have felt at least once before finding this: 7/8 Listitems I have known the name of before finding this: 0/8

How about you?

Also… what’s the feeling called when reading something, thinking ‘that sounds totally made up’ - then doing a quick google and realizing its actually a thing?

    I feel something like that on big streets in the night.

    Normally there are trucks and cars and everything is loud.

    But 2am in the week:

    The only thing on the streets are you, a few puddles from the last rain and the very occasional stray car or moped far away.

    And, yeah, I think in that moment I can relate to your feel.

        Now that I think about it in depth, I for myself (got PDA) would retroactively interpret the feeling as:

        A feeling of autonomy in a place you normally don’t have any.

        With masking in mind we could also interpret it as:

        A place where you are used to mask, but now are free to be yourself because nobody is around to judge you

        On the other hand it may be something not-neurodivergent at all (how should I know), or maybe it’s a combination of a general feeling everyone has with above stated reasons on top.
