I honestly watch most things with subtitles, as it helps me process the information better, so this is very relatable

Why is this so true
In instances where infantilization is involved, yes. But nowadays I won't go back to relying on someone who does that to me
Well, since you asked, I will mention some things.
Firstly, I am tired of being infantilized. So many people have done this to me in my own life. People who call themselves friends and family who want me to succeed and do well. It's makes me extremely enraged. I am very sick of people belittling me in this fashion. I absolutely hate it. Can't people just give me some respect and autonomy as my own self? I don't understand the obsession with wanting to control other people. In fact I am very tired of it. I feel people do not respect me.
Secondly, I feel very lonely, and have very few genuine friends. I have some online friends who are good. But very few irl. In fact, I am wanting more autistic friends. I am planning on going to social groups for autistic people. I am hoping this works out for me. I won't lie, I am nervous about it.
Thirdly, why is finding a job that is suitable to my sensory needs so difficult for me? I am tired of it. I listened to people for too long on what I should do with my life. I bitterly regret doing this. I made a lot of decisions based on what people thought I should do. This was all infantilization, and it was more what these people wanted me to do. I'm really fed up, people suck.
Unfortunately, yes. Even though I have my drivers license.
You have some good points. I have assumed them as neurotypicals, for one reason or another.
Maybe, I could try being mindful of everyone's communication style. Trying different things, and seeing what works best for each person.
I don't think I consciously pressure them. I generally don't initiate deep conversation, as it has not always gone well in the past, so now I just mask with small talk, despite hating it. But I will try to be mindful of my approach nonetheless.
Thanks for the idea, I'll have to give this a go
Beef Casserole. Easier than most things because you just chop everything and then put it in the slow cooker. Little effort required. I kept doing it because new recipes stressed me out too much.
When someone pointed out that I had made the same meal for dinner for most of my meals every week, for 4 months.
Couldn't agree more
This is honestly disappointing. I cannot comprehend, why being principled would make one inferior. Is not being a slave to what others think a curse of its own? Additionally, is not being unprincipled how we end up with corporate and government corruption?

I could really appreciate having an AI assistant like this. As someone who has never found the right support in similar areas to what you are describing something similar to this would provide me with so much value.
If I have any specific input on this, in the coming days, I'll be sure to share it here
