I'm autistic and I was just like this as a kid. Keyword: Kid. I grew out of it a long time ago. I sympathize with her, but at some point you need to recognize that what you're doing isn't working and you should try a new life strategy. In her defense, imagine if everyone in the world was like her and you had to deal with everyone being like that. That's what she's going through all the time, absolutely baffled by the incomprehensible ways that the rest of the world works. You'd be perpetually upset and on the verge of tears too.
As a retail worker, I can confirm these people exist! In their minds, everyone else is wrong and they're just out to get them! Perpetual victims ALWAYS!
I think everybody with some experience in the workforce has known somebody like this: Older gen worker, 10 years or so from retirement, ultra competent due to doing the exact same job for decades, but... extremely sour and sad; prone to emotional breakdowns; regards themselves as superior and always in the right; holds a zealous devotion to the workload being done no matter what; talks trash to any colleague for not valuing the work above their own life; openly interrupts their superior for not organizing work the right way. Depending on the workplace, corporate might always give them the benefit of the doubt because theit productivity is insane (equal to 2 or 3 other employees) and that's all that matters to them. If you find yourself in that case, do your best to change job asap.
Ok I don’t know how to say it but girl your hand work is amazing like the way you’re draw finger and hands are genuinely amazing and sooo good Anyway great video your amazing
Rather shocking how so many industries (e.g. medicine, education, parks/rec) overly rely on the bleeding hearts of the overworked and underpaid. Glad she's not your problem anymore.
1:17 I don’t need to, I have BPD so I can do that myself /hj
But seriously emotional regulation is super important and I’ve learned to hold it in until I’m alone and then I cry about while drawing, or writing, or listening to music while dissociating. I know better than to make my emotional instability someone else’s problem and I’m only 20. I’m far from perfect but at least I can keep it in until it’s socially acceptable to let it out because I’m all alone. It’s ok to snap every once in a while and it’s ok to set boundaries like “Please lower your volume, my ears are sensitive and I’m struggling to actually understand what you’re trying to tell me” while being emotionally upset but constant crying is not good for any situation or relationship, especially the workplace.
The more I listen to you the more it sounds like she might actually have BPD (obviously I can’t actually diagnose her). The whole taking everything as a personal slight is classic unregulated BPD because the nervous system of people with untreated BPD is in a constant state of going haywire and it’s very easy for borderline people to feel constantly threatened and slighted due to that. Basically people with Borderline Personality Disorder as often raised in environments where everything is a personal threat to their safety and well being and it’s very hard to unlearn that (from my understanding of most cases at least, everyone is different). People doing things in ways she doesn’t do can be seen as a slight because “Why didn’t you prepare for my help?” And her trying to be the “helpful one” is a common behavior. More specifically wanting to be seen as a certain type of person (or self image) and trying to make everyone see themselves as that type of person (or have people’s views match the internal self image) and than snapping when they aren’t seen as what they want, like when she had a breakdown after she was confronted for constantly bothering people, “How dare you say I’m not helpful!” She’s most likely trying to help everyone because she wants to be a) liked b) trusted c) valued d) seen as important e) respected and f) seen as source of comfort and security who everyone can always go to. Not trying to justify her behavior, no matter what she has she needs serious help learning how social interactions actually work. I’m so glad I learned that I can’t force people to see me in certain ways.
If I were you I would’ve probably snapped and went “Look I have BPD too and I really recommend you take mood stabilizers, you’ll cry a whole lot less and talking to people will be a whole a lot easier. It helped me a lot so I know it’ll help you too. You’re not a bad person and I promise talking to a psychiatrist is a good thing. You’re a good person but you need help and there’s no shame in that.” Because wow does she sound exhausting.
By the sounds of it I would asume she has some kind of neurological disorder. If that is the is case I feel kind of bad for her to be honest, it can be hard trying to get along with people that don't understand you. I hope she finds the support she needs wherever she goes.
