When you can't physically stop yourself from moving, such as bouncing a leg or tapping or other things and the teacher/your sibling/ your parent yells at you for moving the table.
How about this?
Me: Is minding own buisness in class/school/youth program
Me: Heard random group of kids make jokes about mental illnesses
Me: Politely tries to explain that it's not a joke and is very hurtful and that they should f-off
Them: Insults me, and asks for explanation
Me: gives explanation, politely, and slightly frustrated
Them: Twists my words and uses them for their own purposes
Me: Gets mad, then gives up cause they're impossible and unreasonable
Has anyone else encountered this? I have, especially on topics such as Autism and ADHD, and a few others… (Those are the ones I react to the most…)

I did that once, but I had my sleep mask on my head nearly the whole day at school.
Me: Huh, Brain, maybe we shouldn't watch those dumb Reddit bot videos on haunting last words and incidents in hometowns
Brain, cracking open a sparkling water while wearing a Hawaiian shirt: We all die someday, kid.
Me: But I don't want to think about that before sleeping, they were unsettling
Brain: Hyperfocus on the times you've almost died
Me: You know, that isn't helping
Brain: Fuck you, I do what I want
Me: Please, please can we just do this one essay?
My brain: We could do that . . . or we could refresh notebook for an hour
Me: But we haven't gotten any notifications in so long
