ADHD: "I'm fine." Is not fine. Has been not fine for 6 weeks. Forgot to tell anyone.
Autism: "I'm fine." I have assessed the situation and determined that disclosing the actual answer would take longer than I have capacity for right now.
AuDHD: "I'm fine." Translation available upon request. Conditions apply.

High-functioning means the outside still works when the inside has already filed for emergency leave.

The ick you feel at the thought of shrinking again, yeah...that's data. Your nervous system finally knows the difference between a room that fits and a room that requires you to make yourself smaller to survive it.
