    Breaking Rules You're Unaware Of

    For years, I exhausted people with my neediness, needing to talk, needing company, just needing. I’ve learned that even well meaning friends can be overwhelmed and wrung out so to speak.

    "Funny" moment today.

    My mother had a very public career and punished me consistently. While I think it contributed to a mild case of PTSD, it definitely forced me to learn and mimic neurotypical social styles. I think it made me a better actress but I sometimes feel resentful of the time spent grounded because I...
