Such a great post! I know that sentence offers nothing constructive, but I wanted to say it anyway. I’m glad I’m here.
Talking about your time your time family and those interactions is a feel good moment. It reminded me of childhood when playing with my cousins someone in the family would ask, “Where is so-and-so?”. Then, we would go and find my cousin who was totally playing with us like 10 minutes ago crashed out on the bed and one of the rooms. 😄😊 It’s fun to think about those times as someone who understands the dynamics of how core introvert and extrovert “recharge/recoup” their batteries.
Also, your hit on something I relate to you directly: the slippery slope of ADHD sensory overload. *sigh* How differently could I navigate my life if my younger self could have the consciousness I have now? It’s a nice.
Here’s something I’m curious about. What are your thoughts on your getting screened for autism?
It’s funny, Zach Siegel, who writes a substack called Substance, which is mostly about stupid and pointless the war on some drugs is, wrote about this a few hours before you did.
His post is Why are Americans so Alone, but it is paywalled I think.

Thanks for another great piece on this topic. I am grateful that you are going so in in-depth on this Cathy.
As someone else who struggles with loneliness I can relate and appreciate you fleshing out your own experiences.
Keep up the great work Cathy!
