I feel like I understand this in general, but I don’t know that it makes sense to me personally.
For me, knowing that I have a language related gift and that I don’t seem to have it for any reason but how my brain is, makes me WANT to use it. I try various things in life but I always go back not just to wanting to tell stories and use my gifts, but also to the sense that I know I have a purpose and can always be sure it’s there in the background.
This SEEMS positive to me personally, not negative. I see so many people around me who feel like they don’t know whether their life means anything or what they should do with it, talking about how they’ll never have what they really want, and they seem… terribly sad, to me.
So when I read posts like this it confuses me. The stuff on the right sounds positive and nice, and yes I have struggled with a few of the things on the left, but it really seems like a competing access needs thing to me.
Where if I want the good stuff on the right, I have to give up my purpose, because it’s on the left.
I think graphics like that are meant to describe neurotypicals.
