Not Understood

Lovewell

No one understands me and I'm saddened by that. I feel like people don't even try to understand me, they just look and then decide I'm not worth their time. Sad thing is even my family do this to me, treat me horribly tell me I'm a drama queen and most of the time pretend I'm not there. I have no friends, no one ever wants to be my friend.

I try to tell myself it doesn't matter and I'm sure there's people out there who would like me and want to be my friend but I've never met anyone like that yet. I desperately want a job and to get my own place and away from all the negativity but my anxiety is so bad I can't do it. I do a lot of drawing, animation and I'm hoping that will go somewhere in the end but for now it's just my hobby and fun. 

I'm hoping here I can at least find someone who understands.

  • Hello, I am sorry you feel this way. It must be horrible to have no one who understands you.

    I imagine you may feel quite isolated, but hopefully it is reassuring to know that we are YOUR autistic community. We are here for you. You are not alone and may really benefit from the intuitive understanding that comes from chatting to and sharing experiences with your neurokin.

    You are an amazing autistic person who deserves to be validated and valued for who you are. You are not a ‘drama queen’ you are an autistic person responding  proportionately to the environment, it seems like your family struggle to understand this because they experience the world very differently.

    Your responses to your environment are reflective of how your autistic brain processes information and therefore how your nervous system works. 


    You say no one wants to be your friends but I am sure that many autistic people on this forum (including myself) will be happy to befriend you.

    Your hobbies sound interesting, what do you like to draw?

    I hope this reply helps you feel less alone and makes you realise that there are people who will understand you. You are just starting to find your autistic tribe, welcome.
