Question. why in the world should i have to talk when i dont want to.
(This about more than just this so if you're gonna read it, buckle up.(dw, nothing heavy though, no rubbing on any trauma i don't think))
Like sometimes, it'll be so hard to talk that it almost hurts. its so tiring to make myself talk when i don't to. it stressful. its kind of scary. I'm not useless then, no, sometimes i just. don't want to (or feel like i can't) speak. Why is that an issue with other people? Why do i have to respond to every damn thing and why do i have to respond to those things verbally?
I mean like, Half the time its not even important, or its a yes or no question. Which should mean i can nod or shake my head but nooo. i have to speak. And then when i don't, my mother assumes im mad, and i'm not allowed to be mad at her apparently. and sometimes i am. and sometimes, i just don't want to fucking talk. i do not. understand. why. its. an. issue.
Like really. people seem to try to make me talk, and its so damn annoying. like yeah, i get that being ignored is annoying too, but i offer alternatives --unless i just don't want to speak to *That particular person*-- so whats the problem? yes or no?: nod/shake my head or gesture. something else?: gesture clearly. Something that can't be comunicated like that?: write it down/type it.
like what's the issue. why do need to speak
And while we're on the topic, lets talk about touching (Non-sexually, by the way. just in general). Because, as a person, i touch, i don't like to be touch unless i say you can touch me. in any way. which makes sense, seems reasonable, but some people don't get that.
