I'm a 22 year old with Autism, I need help

NAS71524

So what I hate is being seen as someone with autism. By that I mean someone who people are obligated to hang out with, vs someone people want to hang out with. I cannot go 6 months without making those ideal friendships I want, and then make a mistake related to my autism. Am I doomed for this to keep happening for the rest of my life?

  • You haven't met the right kind of human yet, believe it or not their are some people out their who are that worthwhile they will accept you no matter how different you are and choose to take the time to learn and understand you. For example i have an amazing friend from college this was over six years ago who always makes the effort and will attempt to call me up once a month for a conversation and understands because of my autism and adhd i do not always have the energy to talk when she call and understand that a may forget to call them back and reminded me with text without getting angry. 

    You will go throughout life making those mistakes until you find the people that want to make the effort with you and try to understand.
