Anyone feeling like they want people to stop having expectations of them?

Ever since I remember myself I can remember people having expectations of me. That I should study more, work more, present myself this way, do this, don't do that, etc. And I am so burnt out I want to tell people to shove these expectations up you know where.

Idk, I was pretty much the school's smart kid (to the point where I, someone with a working-class background in Greece, ended up with a full-ride scholarship in a pretty decent US college, which I've now come to hate because of its own expectations). But since I have AuDHD, I will be in a position where people know enough to exploit me, but never enough to see me as a peer. I feel like I'm always too much for them, yet I'm also in a position where they always expect sth from me. And I want them to stfu, but I know I have to keep face and not burn bridges and all that bs. Does anyone else feel like this?

Basically, I got an orchi! I'll never remasculinize again! If trans stuff is not allowed, feel free to lmk.

As for my dinner, a nice tiropita (Greek cheese pie, basically). My amazing bf brought this to bed!

Update: Oh wow, I never thought this post would get this far, it's my most seen one by a far. Also, I just wanna say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to everyone who voiced their support, to the cis girls who, even if not knowing what the procedure is exactly, still made me belong, to the trans girls and NB people who either went or are going to have the same procedure, and I wish them all the best! And to every supportive person I may have missed. I also noticed that my post made it pretty high on today's controversials too, I guess some can't handle a different type of girl's win 🤷‍♀️
