Hi there,
I am 31, I have a demanding job, a 7 y o son, a husband. I am not diagnosed with autism but at this point I feel there is not one person I ever met who understands my struggles. I feel like an alien and I guess need to know are there aliens like me. And if there are, did you figure it out? I don't even know if I am in the right place but can anyone relate to this:
What I am struggling most with:
What others tell how they experience me (these thighs have been said repeatedly by different people) and I do not understand why.
Things I have under control and I learned to do even though I don’t feel like doing them but I know they are important:
I just need to know that it gets better because I am at 100% capacity trying my best and still failing.

Does your husband understand your responses and lend support?

In some way, but he more takes my explanations as excuses rather than something he could support me with.
for example I often ask him what exactly I should say in one situation or another so he knows that I have good intentions but he mostly says that it doesn’t work like that and he cannot tell me what to say
