realized that calling to ask my surgeon's office questions/just generally asking questions is triggering my Autistic Anxiety About Being Annoying. i have a learned fear of being treated badly for being annoying, and that becomes terrifying when they people i am trying not to annoy have a huge amount of power over my body. they probably wouldnt use that power for petty resentment, but they technically could. so communicating with my surgeon's office has been a tortured nightmare every time
