Autistic peeps, what makes you feel like you are "good enough"? Deeply and unequivocally in a world that has given you a different message?

      Knowing that I have nothing but good intentions. Having that in your mind will be one of the greatest things on Earth. Because if someone says something bad, you wouldn't care because you know you're a good person at heart. But everyone is different and they may actually get upset and care a lot when someone says bad about you, or to you. If that happens, you just need a reminder that intentions are nothing but pure.

      Giving myself a purpose. Like right now I have a goal to become a therapist and help kids with mental illnesses like Autism.

          @SunInAugust You're right, it's a developmental disability, but therapists still work with it.

      Not really sure on my end. I guess finishing a huge art piece I am proud of since art is one of my special interests.
