Indecision and mental health strain caused by masking monotropism interests with employment ruined my economic development since high school. I also repeatedly failed at dating and never really integrated socially either. As a result, over time, I started to see everyone else pass me by and the time-related stress became easier to see. The best description is that I felt I was running out of time to catch up.

Now, I'm 42, still living at home, not at all wanting to, unemployed for 7 years which ruins my future economic stability. 42. So, the time aspect is part of the root cause being insufficient integration. The reason for this is the prejudicial neglect caused by Dr. Damian Milton's Double Empathy Problem Theory. And there are ZeRo accommodations. I'm trying to advocate for them presently but the challenges are many.

Responses corroborating my findings that are left here for future readers to see are important validations and additional evidence that this issue is more common than just in my life.

Thank you so much for your input. Go further back to check out my presentation "Where to Go From Here" and my List item , the Autism & Denial Series. That's where this set of discoveries first started.
