Hi, I'm new this his board, so I thought I should introduce myself here first.
I was diagnosed with Aspergers when I was still I school - I tried to brush it off for years, and get on with my life, but I have too many problems to be able to do that.
I've been trying to find work, but with no luck, first because I find it difficult to write an application letter, also I find it tough in interviews because I'm not very good in conversation - I am a friendly, approachable persons, but that doesn't come across in interviews - I don't know whether or not I should tell them I have Aspergers, or if that would ruin any chance I have of getting a job.
I wish I could do this under better conditions, but I have to go in for an interview with a company in charge of running the Work Program, which I was placed on a few years ago. I'm worried about it - even though I've had interviews with them before, and everything was okay. My mum has agreed to go with me, but I still feel like it's going to end badly.
Anyway, that's me, and that's where I am right now. Sorry if this all sounds bad, but that's just how it is. Sorry.
