Ooh Mitch. What an interesting thought. First off, I am SO sorry to hear that you have hearing loss and constant high-pitched singing in your ears. I know how debilitating tinnitus can be, and my heart goes out to you. I am going to have to ponder your question about whether autistics edit in another feeling when there is an emotional "space" or vacuum. Such an interesting idea. Leave it with me . .

I'm deeply appreciative of your read and lovely messages today. I am in the middle of an epic (and all-encompassing) failure at the moment that has taken me away from Medium. It is lovely to feel the connection today thanks to you. A💚🙏
