Hopeless and helpless feelings

If you can, try and get really close with your family because it might be that they are the best friends you will ever have 

Welcome to the group! I've only been a part of it for a few weeks, but people here are very supportive. It's a good place to go to for advice and understanding. It's fair enough not enjoying being around people who are mean - the right people will respect you for who you are. What do you enjoy doing? Maybe there are some groups you could join to meet others with similar interests.

Hi, I’m pretty much the same as you I got diagnosed last week I have no friends, most of the time I feel hopeless I’m 27 and haven’t done much with my life just know your not alone and if you needjust talk to someone message me and I will talk

I didn't fit in with my peers at school and I didn't follow the crowd. And some very nasty people took advantage of my, for lack of a better term, difference and teased me relentlessly. I am sure that you have not failed everything that you have tried. I too have feelings like this from time to time, when I do I try to look on the good things that I have done. Your post isn't annoying. I too will be using this forum in order to ask for advice or vent when I need to get things off my chest.

I hope that this helps!

Hello and welcome! I have also recently come onto the forum having been diagnosed with Level 2 ASD. Please do feel free to ask any questions and read my profile.

Hi mouse, thank you, you’re very nice

Hi, you wont annoy many people in here. I feel the same at the moment. I dont want to go through diagnosis though as I found the screening questions to be too open and too stressful. You dont need people who are mean to you. The NT world is tough. That being said, try and look for the beautiful things in life. The stars at night, animals, nature, things you enjoy doing. Take time for yourself your not a failure. Try to look forward. I struggle so it's the best I have to offer. Today's a new day
