I felt the exact same way after figuring out i was autistic, comrade. I also feel less shame about what i need now - i NEED to have quiet time and to limit my time in busy places or i will get overloaded. We are living in a world not made for us, and there's nothing wrong with needing extra help to adapt to it.

Yeah, it helps to realize what you need from the world! And makes you feel less bad for demanding it. It’s what we deserve!
