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.

  • Thanks for your comment aimosan. It is reasuring to know it's not just me that struggles with reactions / emotions. When I am asked whats wrong or I how I feel often I will say don't know because it's true but honesty seems to annoy people, they would prefer me to lie and say I'm fine and i'm ok.

    It's good to hear that other colleges do offer support aimosan, like the open university! I may consider there courses in the future.
