I’ll intellectually/emotionally/physically hard as answers. For me its either 12 hours straight “punching tubes” on a very large scotch marine firetube boiler at the beginning of my career or Easter around a decade ago when I was working with troubled teens and had to engage in 5 separate protective holds in one 16 hour double shift. The former was all physical and the latter was a combination of emotional and physical.

    Many days, having to carry on while being completely unable and exhausted. Being neurodivergent can be very hard.

        Thanks, it’s (literally, also funny unexpectedly) the journey of my life.

        Not knowing for >40 years and the consequences of that were the biggest issue. So it’s getting better.
