I like being able to spend literal hours focused on one thing. It makes the time I’m able to be productive longer.

Right now the worst part for me is the rejection sensitivity, especially trying to be active in a brand new place.

    My autism is great at honing my art skills which I need to do my job. I have a great sense of perspective, composition and shape. I can read my whole visual field at once, which is great for driving and work. While autism didn’t give me these abilities outright (some took a lot of work) it certainly helped refine them. Hyperfocus and falling down industry specific rabbit holes has done me wonders!
