QOTD . .

What is one misconception that people have about you due to your mental illness? If you're not comfortable with answering that, what's your favorite aspect about your personality? ^_^

that im an abusive or manipulative person 🙂 ﹠ my favourite aspect about my personality would probably be my loyalty ﹠ like trustworthiness

people either say m yellinf or whispering when I speak and I? just don't. have a concept of my own volume </3 I just yap(afaik this is because of ADHD but m not sure ?? may be smth else)

misconception that every part has to be completely different from other parts, i have P-DID and only very few parts but theyre practically copies of eachother. We all like the same things and act almost the exact same thing etc.

ok resending and editing because i messed upBAD

I don't have any mental illness fortunately. alot of people think im upset or mad when it's just the way i talk does that count 😢😢 I guess my fav aspect is that i actually have manners and have morals. Not a personality thing but it is bare minimum really. not insecure its just 1 am i cant thjnk

my favourite aspect of my personality is my apathy. kinda. it's a love hate relationship because the apathy is really helpful to avoid things getting to me, but at the same time... it just makes me dry as hell. or i sometimes act apathetic at the wrong time, and it hurts the wrong person's feelings

a lot of people think im dumb because of my autism and then the other half thinks im evil cause of my npd. like no i can function and process things like a normal person lol

They think im actually dumb which yes I am kind of slow and have trouble understanding things but they underestimate my ability to know and learn things and be smart because of how I act and how somethings are hard for me to grasp I am not stupid but a lot of people think I seriously am
