No Freedom Of Expression 😷

Aspie • I am a teenage girl with Aspergers (associated with ASD).

Have you ever felt the need to express yourself, but was suddenly cut off from doing so and was silenced? Then you're left with all the frustration from not being able to let it all out? I struggle with Aspergers and people, especially my mom, tend to cut me off and stop me from expressing myself however I need to. I find it very difficult to understand and deal with, it's very confusing for me. How come people unlike me can finish what they needed to say, but then we can't? Is that fair? My mom told me according to websites, people like me don't recognize for how long they talk and that it isn't always the right time. My grandmother once complained that "I sucked the life out of her". Is that what I'm doing? Sucking the life out of people? Am I that draining and tiring to hear? Geez, I might as well just keep my mouth shut and not talk at all if it's that bad! Or at least that's how I feel I am being treated... It's like being restrained by a leash but everyone else is free. That's all I can express of it.
