ruminating as an autistic person is genuinely living hell because i don't hold grudges but i will search endlessly for closure from the past even when i know full well i'll never get it and i wish i could hug my brain and tell it you don't always get closure and that's okay

(not condescending) that is perseveration. that’s actually the difference between autism & ocd’s cyclical thinking. autistic brains are more prone to fixating on what they don’t understand, especially since we tend to not fill in gaps of information we do not explicitly have.
