Right.
And she can drive a car too. Yay.
But she's also autistic, and autism isn't just rainbow lemniscates on t-shirts, it's sometines also horrible for everyone. Please don't imagine that we LIKE having meltdowns.
My meltdown behaviour caused my best friend in the whole world to develop PTSD.
MY BEST FRIEND.

For now, I am going to bed.
Forgive each other.
See you later.
