    Unhelpful advice I’ve received from neurotypicals who have, apparently, no theory of mind:

    • Just think about it
    • You should try making a to-do list
    • You’re just embarrassing yourself when you act that way
    • Oh but it’s not a big deal, see?
    • Calm down

      I once in high school was told about a thing I couldn’t do to basically “just do it” by a teacher. In a meeting about my support network. My mother almost wanted to hit the teacher in the head with the dossier.
