Oh I feel this so much. There's a range of jobs and environments where I do really really well. But the way most organizations are structured I can never find a place where my strengths are desirable in the long term.
And selling myself is not one of my strengths.

Try smaller businesses maybe? Corporate isn't for everyone.

I got hired for two simple tasks and quickly realized the company (being small) was lacking in a lot of areas I specialize in or am passionate about. I started doing all these extra things and I got a lot of recognition and $$$ in return. I also don't hate my job, it's a small team and we all get along great.

absolutely one of the worst parts of having an invisible disability is having to be your own advocate, it's so fucking exhausting having to constantly defend and promote yourself.
