Hi
I am new here and wanted to see if anyone else has had issues with being taken advantage of or bullied as an adult? I feel ok most of the time but in an argument I feel easily bullied when my brain gets very 'over heated'. Anyone feel like this?
me that I am an easy target.
For example, I have issues with my landlady (who is a barrister and very quick to manipulate information to suit her agenda) so whenever I report an issue or repair work at the property where I live, she makes up allegations that I have done the damage and she repeats it over and over until I almost believe it to be true. In her last letter she has tried to use my Asperger's as a way to get me to move out. (I had told her when I moved in that I like to be organised so can she send me a list of things that needed doing in the property - jokingly telling her I was Asperger's). She's now saying that due to my Asperger's I panic about the work needed in her victorian house as it's too old for me and I should live in a flat as I can't cope with things that are normal to others (blocked drains, broken stairs, dripping taps - which I think are normal things to complain about - I love the old style house but not the fact it's been left in such a poor condition for me to live in).
How do you all feel about this? Is it common to feel bullied like this as an Asperger's ASD1 type ? I was diagnosed very late in life so it's been a steep learning curve. I've come here as I'm constantly misunderstood and it feels lonely.
