I feel so fed up being stuck in my mom's attic at 23, ive tried to hold down jobs but I would often get fired because of my awful attention span, poor memory & overall being socially inept. I feel like im too incompetent to fit into society, everyone around me is growing in life while im just rotting in my room for several years.
if you can't function in meatspace at all, even when you're trying, it might be time to try to reach out for help. autism is a serious condition. you might be able to receive training to find a job you can hold, and not burden your parents while they're trying to retire. idkare there any jobs programs or things you've tried before?
>>85858723Being neurospicy is often celebrated just find your own people cuh. Stop trying to fit in with healthy people
>>85858753nuerospicy is such a stupid term, it's like hilarously fake autistic. the whole point of autistic people is that they're insanely blunt and cold, spicy is the opposite of the sensation autistic people evoke. so many psychologists need to lose their job for the shit they did to a functional healthcare system.
>are there any jobs programs or things you've tried before?I mean yeah, but they gave me a job that had extremely low pay, say like $150 per month when I specifically said I wanted a full time so I can help pay the bills o algo. I ended up quitting and tried giving fast food jobs a chance. Im probably gonna see if I can get evaluated & get qualified for adderall
I'm autistic ADHD and am 32 years old. Elvanse helped me. I feel mostly normal on this stuff
>>85858762If you can still post coherent sentences on 4chan you are just fake autistic. Just find other neurospicy people and youll be fine
>>85858817what? that doesn't even make sense.
>>85858826I was talking about hanging out with people like yourself. Are you currently dating anyone
>>85858851im not op but i can't really hang out with people well. i've sort of become mute in real life. if i try to do something social i usually end up staring out the window and forgetting where I am, or playing with the dog
>>85858877You dont need to do it well.
>>85858899i'm inclined to disagree. you can't really form emotional bonds with people if you dont express yourself in the same way. they get uncomfortable and you do too.
>>85858913Youll get comfortable over time. Autists dont really feel empathy so thats expected
>>85858943isn't empathy what's supposed to make people human?
>>85858951Yes. But autism used to just be diagnosed as an extreme lack of empathy.
>>85858956i don't even think that i'm very autistic since it's a spectrum and stuff, isn't it? i took the RAADS-R test and got 176/240, so maybe i'm a little on the autistic side, but i still want to try to have personal relationships and talk with friends and family with my words.
>>85858806Hopefully if I ever get meds ill be able to function again. My work history is already screwed.
>>85858730none of those things exist in any real helpful capacity the world is built get fucked i got mine now
