Feel different diagnosed with Austium

Sez2016

Hi my name is Sez, 

i have recently been diagnosed with Austium 

I suffer from depression and anxiety. 

I really struggle to make and keep friends 

i work full time as I find keeping myself busy better then sitting around doing nothing but I find it hard most days 

anyone feel the same and any ideas how to help ? 

  • Sez, at least now you have a 'blueprint' of yourself and are in a position to try to manage your life as best as you can. There are people who are autistic but have learnt skills in order to function as much as possible in society but it takes effort and time. I'm new to this but there must be organizations that offer help and advice for autistic people and, no doubt, there are people here that can provide information about these. Just because you are autistic doesn't mean you are not highly intelligent and it is our intelligence that we have to rely on in the end. Human beings are born to learn.
