There's no support group in my area

hi everyone 

I'm 20 years old diagnosed at 10 and I've had no support regarding my Aspergers at school they stopped my statement because I didn't have any learning problems. But that was when I was 14. I have had no support at all and 6 years on I just feel like there's no help/support for me. I'm leaving uni next year as I graduate, but I know I'm adult now but I need some kind of support. A lot of people I left school with and college have all had their first jobs I've applied for loads and I get rejected every time. I had like two interviews. I also would like to meet another adult with Aspergers as I have never met another female with Aspergers and I've only ever met one male with Aspergers. I feel my friends do not understand the problems you face with being an adult with Aspergers. Would be nice to meet a female who understood the same problems with me. I am lucky and have a very good boyfriend but he isn't Autstic so he only go on what I tell him.

Lovely chatting you you all 

:)

  • Yes, support can make a world of difference. What sort if support, Duck22, would you like to receive?

    I am also a woman with Asperger's, but I was diagnosed late, age 21. I am now 26 years old. It is nice to meet other young women with Asperger's, even if only online, as most people I know with the condition are male and/or a lot older than me.
