I am kinda glad, I had a mindset shift at like 17 to just live to entertain myself and after that I found some neurodivergent folks at my school at the time and had the time of my life. Before that were some major depressions and social circles that didn't enjoy my presence (and I didn't enjoy theirs too!). It makes a huge difference if there are people near you who do vocal stimming with you lmao
