tapeworm 👍

Kaminari: so, how old are you? 3?

Eri: I’m 10

Walking behind the group because no one wanted to converse with my. I was an addition.

Finding out there was a party or sleepover but I was never invited.

Calling my mum to come pick me up after an hour at a birthday party because I was exhausted and bored.

Spending summer vacation alone. Mostly inside.

Thinking anyone who treated me nicely was a friend. This let bullies use me very easily.

Watching games from a safe nook on the side of the playground, no idea how to join in.

"Why are you so weird?"

Dressing for comfort not for fashion and being bullied for it.

Wandering off in stores and getting in trouble but not being able to explain the lights hurt and the noise hurt so I needed to find something calming (nearly always found in the book section).

Weird phobias

Getting sick a lot from stress

Room full of special interest items. Seen as weird by others.

Easily abused as didn't understand this was abuse. And easily kept quiet because I just wanted to be left alone.
