Image: Cartoon drawing of two people sitting on and looking out of opposites of a bus. The one on the left is sad looking at a hillside. They are labeled, “Someone who think I have beef with them.” The person on the right is happy and looking at a beautiful view. They are labeled, “My autistic ass who has no idea what I said was offensive.”
Does happen to AuDHD me sometimes. But equally as much, person on sunny side of bus: “friend or colleague going about their day thinking we had a normal interaction”, person on dark side of bus; “rejection sensitivity dysphoria telling me they took everything I said the wrong way and now they probably hate me”.
