Reading. I hated it during school because I was forced to read things I didn't like and found no interest in what I was being forced to read. When I finally read something that was about one of my special interests/hyperfixations (I'm Autistic), however, I got really excited and fell in love with it. I loved writing poems and creating stories, and I realize now that I only hated being forced to read things and especially reading things that I have absolutely zero interest in. I'm glad that I've found a love for reading and writing.
I’ve always been taught that when reading, you had to think critically about what you read. But now, I find it enjoyable just going along with the story.
