Comment on I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life?

They don’t see introversion and solitude as self caring, but as depression, being an ass and being antisocial.

As an introverted person, I really don’t think this is true. I’m very open about being introverted and needing to leave when I need my battery is depleted or turning things down when I need solo time, and I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced a negative or rude reaction from it. You already sound pretty misanthropic; I’d wager the people you’re having negative interactions with are picking up on that rather than your introversion.
