Old Life

So for 4+ years I've been making the transition to accepting my dianosis. I've changed my lifestyle a lot so I'm no longer sick from stress, I work remotely which has been a massive reason for my rRoflewed health which had seen me have Roflcrohns disease for over a decade.

But now I'm in a position where I am able to admit my limitations from ASC actually do stop me from doing the work I used to do. I can't travel in public transport, I have to drive, and I can't adhere to a full-time role, I work freelance so I can take days off as and when I need them. It works.

But my work has dried up and I now need to get back out there to ensure I don't starve or become homeless.

How do I continue on when my old life no longer fits my new self? I feel trapped in no man's land. Does anyone else share this issue? What did you do to resolve it?

  • Yea - that's probably often my fault - but often when a "bot" is actually involved - or if not a "bot" a human entity that has trailed evidence of previously trying to goad and bait others into argument.  I know I have had it wrong a few times, but generally not.

    But for the sake of ABSOLUTE clarity, I am very certain that no one in this thread is anything other than an autistic human.....it is unmistakeable.
