what do I feel

Tlc

I had trouble in my training/college programme over the last 2 years because of communication/social difficulties and I was diagnosed a few months ago with Asperers Syndrome and I informed the college. I just started back for my final year and after a meeting last week I have been dismissed from the training programme. I have been working towards this for many years and my chosen career path has now been taken away.

When they told me it was over I didn't know how to react. I just sat there emotionless. This was about 5 days ago. Since then I have not known what to do and I don't know how to express what I feel because I don't know what I am feeling.

I haven't cried, I haven't shouted... just nothing. As if I am empty.

I am not depressed but I am very confused.

This must sound very odd. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Any advice about how to overcome this?

Thanks

T.

  • Outraged, thank you for your comments. I have found their assumptions offensive also. They have made many and haven't given me the opportunity to learn from my new diagnosis.

    And yes I do have a vocation. The only thing I have wanted to do with my life is be a minister. There is nothing else for me. You say if I do have a vocation I won't let opposition stand in my way, well I have fought hard to get this far and the college have recognised my determination but unfortunalety there is nothing I can do now. They won't change their mind and I can't force them too.
