Why Does It Hurt *Updated*

I don't know where else to turn.

Had a therapy appointment yesterday, GP appointment tomorrow. I'm really hurting, but I can't tell anyone. The "S" word has consequences. I just can't say it, I cant cope with what might happen I'f I do.

It's ok, I don't expect any replies, I'm not after attention. I just needed somewhere I could be honest with myself.

Sorry.

*Thank you so much everyone for your kindness, you are all truly amazing people.

  • Get your head into anything else. Samaritans only listen to you but give no help otherwise. Medical people like to give therapy but may not help. Do you spot anything that helps you feel good about yourself...... Music. Exercises. Eating. Alcohol??

    I've tried? Everything but get humiliated by some here

  • I really liked this post when I first read it. People rely too much on medical/psychological  intervention these days, when both seem quite uncertain solutions to Autism problems in my experience and it seems others on this board.

    I am not sure ANYONE here is in the business of deliberately humiliating others, but we Aspie types aren't exactly known for our tact and diplomacy. Autism is a problem with the executive side of the brain and I know in my case I can fail big when trying to express myself effectively. 

    It's a huge risk we take when trying to help each other, but who else is going to help us, really? After my last (disastrous) medical intervention, in 1995 I decided I had better "man up" and help myself, which worked out much better for me to be honest, than looking to get my solutions from other people, but it's not advice I'd be comfortable handing out to random strangers who may be differently wired to me.
