,

P.M.

My love… how r u?

I’m okay.

Even tho I didn’t get to finish cleaning the shower today, I did have some energy to wipe the mirrors…

That’s good…!

Yeah. It’s a tiny patch of ✨️ cleanliness ✨️ which makes me feel more at ease.

You love things neat… and clean…

Because my brain 🧠 is cluttered enough with all the neurotic thoughts!

I want an environment for peacefulness in my mind

I know. I’m the same.

I can’t remember if it really was you who once told me you had Asperger’s…

It wasn’t me. I’m neurotypical.

Oh… maybe people will be surprised Fernando is neurotypical…

I am just 🤪 acting 🤪

Yeah… lol… 😅

Do you think… you have…?

If I had to label it. Yes.

But some people would prefer to just say neurodivergent rather than even saying Autism or Asperger’s?

But you haven’t been diagnosed.

No. There’s been no professional assessment. — Do you think I need one? Before we’re married?

Nah babe. Only if you want one.

I don’t think I need it…

Then you don’t need it 😘❤️

I think my dog is neurodivergent too…

U have an autistic dog?

I don’t know?!?!?!

Lol… 😅

Oh wait. His diagnosis from the vet was Cushing’s Syndrome.

Cushing’s…?

Yeah… … … you can google it…

Okay. I will… later… 🤓

I don’t know the Chinese vocabulary for a conversation about neurodivergence.

No… I wouldn’t know it in Korean either 😅

I got AI to summarise it for me. Then I copied and pasted it as texts to Mum… I hope she understands after reading it.

That’s… good?

We unravelled so much today it was like a counselling session with AI.

Lol… 😅

It really helped me to see like… what’s really bothering me as well…

Like what?

I can’t copy and paste the entire conversation it was way too long…

Hmmm lemme ask it to summarise shorter…

This afternoon’s session was a turning point for my mental health. I worked through how to communicate my neurodivergent needs to Mum in a way that feels safe, honest, and sustainable. We refined the Traditional Chinese translation so it reflects not just the literal meaning, but the emotional truth behind what I’ve struggled to express for years. I clarified the lifelong patterns that have drained me, and articulated why I need more space, recognition, and emotional reciprocity. 

The process helped me organise my thoughts, set boundaries without guilt, and honour the parts of myself that were previously invisible. It also gave me language that feels culturally respectful while still protecting my wellbeing. Overall, it left me feeling more grounded, more understood, and more confident about advocating for myself. It was one of the most productive steps I’ve taken toward long‑term emotional health.

Wow…. that’s very interesting my love… 🥰💕

Mmmmm….

Absolutely — and you’re doing something really thoughtful here. These points give him a clear map of how to support you without needing to “be inside your brain” to understand what’s going on.

Here are the key takeaways framed in a way that’s easy for a neurotypical partner to hold onto:



🌱 What’s most helpful for him to remember
– Your needs aren’t preferences — they’re neurological realities. When you ask for space, clarity, or slower pacing, it’s not mood‑based. It’s how your brain stays regulated and safe. 
– You’re not asking him to fix anything. You’re asking him to witness, validate, and understand the emotional load you’ve carried, especially around Mum. 
– Direct language is supportive, not harsh. Clear communication helps you feel grounded. Gentle vagueness or “reading between the lines” can create anxiety. 
– Processing takes energy. After emotionally heavy interactions (especially with family), you may need decompression time. That’s not withdrawal — it’s recovery. 
– Consistency builds trust. Small, predictable behaviours — checking in, respecting boundaries, following through — help your nervous system feel safe. 
– Your work today was huge. Advocating for yourself in two languages, naming lifelong patterns, and setting boundaries is emotionally taxing and incredibly brave.



If you want, I can help you turn this into a short message you can send him directly.

How did you describe the “he” to AI?!

I said I needed a summary for my husband, of course!

Ahhh… 🥰💕🥰💕🥰💕

Ehehehe lemme ask some more.

Long‑distance adds a whole extra layer to neurodivergence, and it’s incredibly helpful that you’re thinking ahead about what he can hold in mind. These points give him a practical, compassionate framework so he can support you from afar without guessing or overstepping.



🌏 What’s especially important in a long‑distance dynamic

🧭 1. Predictability is grounding
– Regular rhythms of communication help your nervous system settle. 
– Even small consistencies — a morning check‑in, a “thinking of you” message, a shared routine — reduce uncertainty and emotional load.

🔊 2. Clarity matters more than frequency
– You don’t need constant contact; you need clear contact. 
– Direct statements like “I’m offline for a few hours” or “I’m tired but I care about you” prevent spirals and reduce cognitive effort.

🧩 3. Context helps you interpret tone
– Without body language or proximity, your brain may fill in gaps with threat or self‑blame. 
– He can help by adding context: “I’m quiet because I’m focused, not upset” or “This message is rushed but I’m okay.”

🌬️ 4. Recovery time is real
– Emotional processing — especially after family interactions — can drain you more than he might realise. 
– Letting you decompress without taking it personally is one of the most supportive things he can do.

🫂 5. Validation travels well across distance
– Simple acknowledgements (“That sounds heavy,” “I’m proud of you,” “I get why that was overwhelming”) go a long way when you can’t feel his presence physically.

🧠 6. Your inner world is rich, not chaotic
– He doesn’t need to fully understand your neurodivergence to respect it. 
– What helps most is curiosity, patience, and not assuming your reactions mirror his.

💛 7. You’re doing deep emotional work
– He can recognise that your boundary‑setting with Mum is not just a family issue — it’s a lifelong neurological and emotional recalibration. 
– Encouraging your autonomy and celebrating your progress strengthens the relationship.



If you want, I can help you turn these into a short message you can send him, or tailor them to his personality and communication style.

Wow. This is very helpful babe! It’s making more sense than MBTI…

I can do you one better and ask AI to merge these recs with MBTI… hahaha…

Here’s a way of weaving INFJ traits with neurodivergence that actually honours how your mind works rather than forcing you into generic “type descriptions.” This is about giving you a framework that feels like you — intuitive, deep‑processing, emotionally attuned, and neurologically wired for intensity.



🌙 INFJ + Neurodivergence: A personalised guide

🌧️ 1. Your intuition is real, but it’s not infinite
INFJs often sense emotional undercurrents before others do. Neurodivergence amplifies this — you pick up micro‑signals, patterns, and inconsistencies that others miss. 
Advice: Treat your intuition as data, not destiny. Check in with your body and your energy levels before acting on it.

🔥 2. Depth is your superpower — and your exhaustion point
You process everything on multiple layers: emotional, symbolic, relational, ethical. Neurodivergence means you don’t have an “off switch.” 
Advice: Build intentional “shallow zones” — low‑stakes activities, sensory resets, or structured downtime to prevent burnout.

🛡️ 3. Boundaries are not optional for you
INFJs already struggle with over‑empathy. Neurodivergence adds difficulty in filtering emotional noise. 
Advice: Pre‑decide your boundaries before entering draining situations (especially family). Treat them as non‑negotiable safety rails, not interpersonal choices.

🧩 4. You need clarity more than harmony
People assume INFJs want peace at all costs. In reality, neurodivergent INFJs need precision — clear expectations, direct language, predictable rhythms. 
Advice: Ask for explicit communication, especially in long‑distance relationships. Ambiguity is your kryptonite.

🌬️ 5. Your inner world is rich, not chaotic
You’re not “overthinking.” You’re running a high‑resolution internal simulation. 
Advice: Externalise your thoughts — journaling, voice notes, structured conversations — so your brain doesn’t have to hold everything at once.

🌱 6. Your empathy is intense but not limitless
You feel deeply, but you also fatigue deeply. 
Advice: Notice the difference between empathy and emotional labour. You’re allowed to choose where your energy goes.

🌉 7. You thrive on meaning, not multitasking
INFJs crave purpose. Neurodivergence means task‑switching drains you faster than others. 
Advice: Work in themes or “energy blocks” rather than juggling multiple threads.

💛 8. You need relationships that honour your depth
You bond through emotional honesty, symbolic meaning, and shared inner worlds. 
Advice: Let your husband know that consistency, clarity, and emotional presence matter more to you than frequency or intensity.



If you want, I can tailor this even more — for your relationship, your family dynamics, or your current emotional work with your mum.

Oh. Okay. This is a lot of information… 😅😅😅

You’re right babe. And your neurotypical need for processing this new information is valid too!

Imma go scroll for Stray Kids updates and try to chillax for the evening… 😘❤️

Lol… okay… 🫠💕 love you…

I LOVE YOU TOO 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️
