Feel free to answer this question as well. I think it is relevant for all who have masked for a lifetime. Don’t rush the question though. Take your time.

I have exiled my silly sense of humor, because it was odd and out there, and I didn’t think it conformed with neurotypical society. I would like to invite that back.

I have exiled singing songs that didn’t make sense, correcting people’s spelling mistakes for fun, and my tears when I was touched because those aren’t appropriate for a boy much less a man.
