Are we disabled?

I am going to die at a relatively young age and no one will even know. Should I be all happy clappy about my lovely neuro divergenceness?

No.

There is no positive in this.

You clearly have a glass half empty perspective on this - if you could look for the things that do work for you, the things you can enjoy and what is good in life then you could find existance a much more tolerable thing.

See the glass as half full and find ways to fill it further.

I simply can’t bear living alone and unknown. There’s no point to it.

Make yourself relevant - use that autistic superpower of your special interest and find something to become very knowledgable about that has a use and develop it to help others.

Great advice!

I disagree about their being no point. Make yourself relevant - use that autistic superpower of your special interest and find something to become very knowledgable about that has a use and develop it to help others.

Even if your special interest is something like Doctor Who fan fiction then learn how to write it, develop your own stories and write / publish them and refine your skills.  Bring pleasure to the readers this way and you may even develop a revenue stream over time.

You have to be willing to put in the work though - if you sit back and expect the world to make everything better for you then you are bound for dissapointment.
