Our pattern seeking brains start to become a problem once we realize that everyone is infinitely complex. It's good to have mental shortcuts when you need to save brainpower for a more daunting task but those shortcuts come back to bite us when they're used on people that we're actively trying to engage with.
I'm also never a big fan of referring to people as NPC's in any context because it's not productive. Everyone deserves at least a little bit of your focus, even if you're not really compatible.
I feel you so hard on all of this. I'm ADHD, trans guy as well, dealing with childhood trauma and have my own weird spiritual beliefs that make no sense to most people. Very few things about me make sense to others because I have always been an outsider and the more I embrace myself the more I have to face just how much of a different person I am than what people expect. It's scary but exciting at the same time. Love this video so much and I'm so happy to have found you!
Perfect time for me to find this video! Who am I kidding, every day of my life would've been the perfect time for me to find this video. Enjoyed listening to your thoughts, relate a lot to those feelings. Happy holidays random dude on the interwebz
I’m glad that you made this video, I needed to hear this because sometimes it’s so hard to relate to people when you’re a minority in so many different groups ( e.g: black, trans, gay, etc). But we get to define ourselves.
