I spoke about it before but whenever I have things I need to do, I find myself putting them off even when I’m out of the house in no small part because of how constantly busy traffic is. I may live in the middle of nowhere, but it’s car dependent so there are near constant traffic jams.
Even at the grocery store I find myself wandering aimlessly because of how constantly packed the place is. The gym? It’s full all the time too so it’s hard for me to actually do my workout. When I’m actually in traffic I feel myself getting more and more angry and irritated. I despise how poverty forces me to stay a basement dweller in rural Ohio, I despise how slow going from point a to point b is because of how busy traffic is at all times. It makes me sad seeing fire trucks not go anywhere because of how backed up traffic is.
I think it’s cutting a lot into my productivity in trying to find a job and get myself off my feet when I have to take care of other things, and I wonder if any neurodiverse people feel the same way.
Yeah my walk to the station I’d go via a busy road and every fiber of my body hated it. I then decided to take a longer route but avoid the main roads and now I enjoy the walk. I hate cars i hate being near cars i hate crossing roads i hate people in the cars i hate looking at cars
