“ pretend i'm something better than these broken parts. ”

"christine having adhd doesnt fit.. that much, lets just think about this christine gives off much more autistic behavior then adhd. (before i start yapping im neurodivergent dont attack me this isnt me stereotyping)anyways, my evidence to christine not having add or adhd but being autistic, starts off if we think about “I love Play Rehearsal” when she says the line about being depressed and then goes on her tangent about not actually being depressed and how she wasn’t literal. Autistic people often overexplain themselves because they dont want what they are saying to be interpreted wrong or incorrectly. Christine losing focus during “I Love Play Rehearsal” wasn’t due to having “a touch of add”, it was because she got distracted by connecting her passions to the conversation. Also if we notice the line “like if im living up to all im meant to be” christine literally just wordvomits her thoughts despite some of them not being soically appropriate during “I Love Play Rehearsal”. Another piece of evidence is if we listen to christine’s reason for liking play rehearsal. *rules*. It is *rules*, guidelines that help set her straight. Autistic people often resort to having more instructions and structure to sort things out and make them easier to do. This implies that Christine finds play rehearsal easier than her life because she has a *guide*. Because her plans can never differ because she knows what is to happen next. Autistic people often don’t like surprises or changes in rountine. Christine feels comfortable because she knows that that will most likely not happen. She feels *secure*. At the end of “I love Play Rehearsal” the thing that christine does that she wants to do. “Normal” teens wouldn’t do something so socially awkward and “odd”. Christine clearly has no filter which also kinda contributes to my reasoning that christine is autistic. ALSO THE UNINCUMBERED JOY THAT CHRISTINE FEELS BECAUSE PLAY REHEARSAL IS GOING TO START!? That is not neurotypical excitement. Onto “guy i’d kinda be into” that entire song is autistic coded. The overly honesty of how she feels is.. spectrum behavior. Onto minor details.. in “Voices In My Head” christine says she just wanted things to be easier. Dude literally every unmasked autistic person acts like themselves but has those spells of desired normalcy. ANYWAYS. Basically christine matches autism coded behavior rather than add or adhd as the fandom suggests."
