until the last several years of my life I had no good understanding, and then what I suppose must have been my bad karma ripened and the Universe decided to teach me over and over and over again:
it is 100% possible to be an introvert who prefers quiet activities, and also be a motor-driven, always doing something Type A personality who has no concern whatsoever for stillness
I thought I would be okay living with introverts 🥲 but in practice after ending up with ones like this, nothing could be further from the truth 🥲 it is literally destroying my life while shortening my lifespan 🥲
what’s crazy is when I was in DBT I met somebody actually diagnosed with ASD who shares a lot of the same auditory sensitivities I have, but like… way worse. and with misophonia and such. the sensitivity scale goes way higher than most humans will ever understand.
Hard to follow. Are you saying you’re living with type A introverts, and that is causing some problems for you? You say this type prefers quiet activities but no concern for stillness…are you being distracted by their quiet but active activities or something?

correct, I got the “no perceptual filter for anything happening inside the house,” “can never stop masking unless alone” autism combined with being homeless and thus crashing on a couch with no door I can close
