The real kicker is, they are generally fully aware of their challenges in navigating day to day life.
They know they are not "the norm" and they have feelings just like us.
Many of them would trade their gift to be "normal" but there is literally nothing most of them can do about how they are wired.
Unless you are absolutely perfect in everything you do in life then shut up and have some ****ing compassion.
