That I was too high maintenance. I’m disabled and always been in the position of “be grateful for what you have and don’t you dare ask for anything” taking up space was a sin I could never be absolved from. In reality I’m incredibly self sufficient, I’m competent, I’m capable, I don’t ask for much and what I do ask for is both justified and reasonable. Being taught asking for even the most basic things made me an ungrateful bitch sent me on and endless pursuit of how to best disappear 🫥 but I’ve realized I’m absolutely not “high maintenance” I’m a completely normal person who needs totally normal amounts of support, affection, care, etc and if I occasionally want or need more of something that doesn’t make me an ungrateful bitch.
Not everyone knows how to drive a super car, it’s not the cars fault, the car isn’t doing anything wrong if the driver can’t handle something so powerful
