Feeling useless

Zerris

Hi,

I am a 28 year old man and was diagnosed with ASD in the early part of this year. I have been having difficulty in securing and maintaining work and now I am not enthusiastic about my future. I don't feel I have a future where I can earn a reasonable ammount of money and live independently. I used to work in IT but could not stand working on the helpdesk due to my difficulties. Same with the role I held in HR. All the other entry level roles in IT seem to be these horrid helpdesk positions, I just can't

I do not have a good work future ahead of me. I don't know what to do anymore. I am so tired from trying and failing .

  • Sounds to me like you need to stop trying to do what you think you should be doing and instead do what you want to.

    You will counter saying "yes but I need to do x to be able to have y"  .   This is like a maze where solutions will exist but will probably take some work or help but I guarantee you one will exist.
