Anyone else with Autism, ADHD or both gotten into full time employment & got their life together at age 25 ?

Anyone else with Autism, ADHD or both gotten into full time employment & got their life together at age 25 ? I've had enough of these fake organisation that keep failing me or forcing me into work in some really unsuitable work environments or with extremely shady employers. So far I've done so much work experience, leisure & online learning and nothing has given me a little bit of direction. I wanted to go back to college but they do not do digital infrastructure or digital development for those over the age of 23. 

I've tried an apprenticeship which ended early because of the training provider or school going bankrupt, it wasn't something I was interested in anyway but i was willing to give it a chance and complete them, they where in horticulture and retail. Looking back they where probably a waste of time as because they where in dead end entry level subjects. 

I just want some direction or at least a fresh start in a job in a clean, well ventilated environment with routine hours but i keep being harassed into livestock, meat processing and elderly care assistant roles and the only reason i didn't stay at these jobs is because harassment and bullying by the staff was ruthless and became violently physical and dangerous.

  • Hi Blue, just sent you a personal message following your post on the other 'Work Support' thread.  Sorry to hear you're still experiencing harassment.

    I tried to get into apprenticeships for IT years ago but at the time they were only for 16-18 year olds
    September is the first time that any college in Norfolk is providing programming and digital infrastructure but their all T levels and restricted to under 23 year olds

    Agreed its a pain when there are so many hoops to jump through with the courses likely to be most useful.  Some news articles have said there's a digital skills shortage but any job advert requires specific experience.
