IF YOU WANNA BE HAPPY, BE PREPARED TO DISAPPOINT PEOPLE!
Take it from me, I had to disappoint so many people in order to be happy.
As a South Asian neurodivergent woman who was the black sheep in every single way possible, I can tell you that masking yourself is hurting you more than helping.
Masking and living out of alignment led to burnout and massive executive dysfunction that lasted 2-3 years.
I was successful but so unhappy. I gained weight, I was had a dirty home, and was waking up stressed.
I had to quit my job to do be functional in my daily life and it was the hardest thing I had to do.
I’m not telling you to quit your job tomorrow, just be aware.
This world is not meant for women like us.
You weren’t broken, you were just misunderstood. You most likely have gifts that many people don’t have, and you need to find someone to fully see you for who you are!
Whether it’s family pressures, job stress,or being the “look of success” that’s getting you down, just know it’s not your fault. It’s the way your brain was designed.
