Footnote: Autism masking is the conscious or subconscious habit of hiding autistic traits to act more neurotypical. People do this to fit in, avoid bullying, and keep jobs, but it causes deep exhaustion and burnout. You can learn more about these patterns through resources like the https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/behaviour/masking.
