    But how do I show I am that guy day-to-day but not when it’s a high pressure situation I’ve been playing my head over and over for days?

    I’ve found ways around it but never know when you could need this kind of advice.

      Let it go.

      Seriously. That’s the answer. Don’t worry about the interview. Just see it as another conversation.

      I the end, interviews are no better than picking names out of a hat, this from research done by Harvard some 20+ years ago.

        I’m not sure I’m capable tbh. My workaround has been to get a temp job somewhere, be myself, then get offered a full time gig. It’s worked multiple times but it’s ironically more effort.

        You can’t lose anything, only gain.

        Idk about you, but I value my time. 5 hours spent for an interview process that does not end with an offer is a loss to me.

        Not like I’m going to blow my brains out, whatever happens. And you won’t either.

        Plenty of people blow their brains out. 1 in every 12 autistic people attempt it anyway.

        Not directly related but something I found while looking that stat up: a full 18% of 8-year-old autistic kids apparently have a suicide plan.
