Yellow boy
nd culture is loving reading but hating physical books. i hate to read actual books cause i can never fully understand or absorb anything without reading the same page like 7 times. that’s why i love audiobooks because for some reason my apd doesn’t work when i’m listening to audiobooks to i actually understand and absorb what’s going on. idk what happened because in like 5th and 6th grade i read like 9 books a month during school but now i can only do audiobooks. whatever, this is an unpaid ad for audiobooks.

i was recently diagnosed with OCD, and we seriously need to change the way we talk about the disorder. the average time between onset of OCD symptoms and beginning to receive treatment is over a decade, and i suspect at least part of the reason why is the way we talk about OCD societally, or rather the way we dont talk about it.
no, OCD isn't the "clean freak" disorder. you dont have to check that your door is locked 17 times in order to have OCD. the actual symptoms of OCD are as varied as any other disorder, but it seems that only the most palatable or easily digestible symptoms get talked about regularly.
no one wants to talk about mental compulsions (ex: ruminating on past and potential future situations with "what ifs"), and how they can be even more severe or disruptive than visible ones.
no one wants to talk about the extremely distressing intrusive thoughts that can happen, let alone the fact that intrusive thoughts dont start and stop with violence. yes, this includes bigotry and pedophilia, and no, people with these thoughts are not bigots or pedophiles. intrusive thoughts play on your fears, not who you actually are.
the reason no one with OCD is talking about their symptoms and experiences is because we're demonized for having them and harassed for expressing them, and that shit is unacceptable. we fucking deserve safe places to discuss our symptoms without fear of it being misconstrued and used against us (or just straight up being verbally assaulted, or worse). thought crime isnt fucking real. your thoughts do not make you a good or bad person, your actions do.
People wondering if things could have gone differently if Gojo spoke to Geto and expressed his wish to hear him out, we did get that; Yuji and Junpei. The worst part is yeah they could've reconciled. I think Yuji and Junpei speed-ran everything SatoSugu did wrong but also fixed it and made it right. Yuji didn't stop and tried to get through to Junpei no matter what, and Junpei was willing to give humans a chance. They did everything right because they're both a lot more empathetic, compassionate and fundamentally, Junpei and Yuji are underdogs.
Geto and Gojo very definitely aren't so they're assured in their own decisions so when they make a choice, they go all out. Yuji and Junpei at this point were very unsure of themselves and they had the sense to acknowledge that and saw the same in one another. Junpei saw that Yuji will have to kill people and asks him questions forcing him to confront that. Junpei says people have no hearts and he believes it on many levels but he also acknowledges that it's a difficult thing to convince oneself of, and when Yuji hears him out he finds hope in that and is very willing to change.
Yuji and Junpei are the Emotional Awareness and communication AU of satosugu, i think. The reason these two ended is because of outside forces. SatoSugu did it all on their own.
His Special Interst is physics, more specifically astrophysics, and space
When he saw Suguru put shoes on w/o socks when they went for a midnight snack he was shell shocked bc he wasn't aware that there are ppl out there who could do that w/o intense discomfort
It isn't obvious that he can't read the fucking room bc he does his thing with an absurd amount of confidence that convinces everyone he's being stupid on purpose
Has a diagnosis for ADHD but not for ASD bc he doesn't have any social issues everybody loves him wdym? Oh the sunglasses? its to prevent migranes ofc etc.
He bites his lips or squints his eyes hard at the slightest inconveniences bc "its destroying my vibe" its not at all bc he doesn't like things straying out of his control no
He hates Suguru bc he forces him through his executive dysfunction (he doesn't know what he'd do w/o him)
Sometimes he just sits there staring into nothingness and then snaps out of it and acts like it didn't happen
Suguru timed for how long Satoru could do that once. It was 30 min. Suguru's starting to worry there is something severely wrong w his best friend
Satoru sometimes gets the urge to bite Suguru. Suguru feels like he owns a cat.
Other times he gets the urge to climb Suguru like a tree (literally). Suguru is getting more assured in the assumption that there is something severely wrong w his best friend. (The thighs around his face after the escapade is over make him love it tho)
He often walks into a room just to stare into the void for a few and then leave again. Suguru is once again reminded of a cat.
When he wants Sugurus attention he bumps or rubs his head against Sugurus shoulder. Suguru is almost certain that Satoru is secretly a cat.
Shoko is watching everything w amusement. She has her theory's regarding Satorus behaviour but they definitely don't involve a cat. Will she tell them Satorus probably autistic? Probably. Will she take her time? Absolutely.
does Nanamin know it’s Gojou? does he genuinely think Gojou is the most awful cat he’s ever had the displeasure of meeting? questions he will make sure no one will figure out the answer to
so true bestie <3
