I think you should re-read my post, because nowhere in there did I say everyone should use GPS or it’s dangerous to drive. I just said that’s how and why I use it. When I do, it does keep people safe, because I’m not putting myself in a situation where I’m likely to be distracted by trying to figure out my route while I’m behind the wheel. Distracted driving is dangerous driving, period dot and end of story, regardless of neurodiversity.
You seem to recognise that people are in fact all different, so I’m very confused as to why you’d then come at me to tell me I’m handling my disability wrong when you don’t know me or the spread of symptoms I’m living with. I can’t unlearn my brain structure, but I can mitigate it, so I do that. I’m not the idiot, here.
I’m literally not even talking about you. I’m talking about people generally. I’m talking about systems. We’re on a forum, not having a personal 1:1 conversation
You know what you can learn? To own up to your mistakes, instead of pretending like you were saying something else the whole time.
Another coping mechanism I’ve learned is to walk away from people who are more interested in their own narratives than reality. If you respond, I won’t see it.

This you?

That was me, twice now, trying to emphasize that I’m an not talking about you personally. Hence the emphasis on the word “you”.
