Hi

Hi I'm Clara. I'm not great at talking really so I'll make this as short as possible. I have autism and it was recommended I come here to meet others like me and make friends. 

I have autism and am lonely a lot and no one understands me. I feel suicidal a lot and have thoughts don't know if that's autism or something else. 

I don't work, I did try but it wasn't possible because of my autism problems. 

Also get vivid nightmares and voices, guess this is autism. Mum says to go to the doctor's but last time they put me on antidepressants which made everything worse. So I avoid them now.

Really I just want to be around others like me and know more about myself.

So hello nice to know you Slight smile

    Hi. 

    I found that the loneliness and isolation causes (or makes worst) so many other issue, like self worth which which further compounds everything.  Since I started to unpack my mind things have made more sense and allowed me to work on my mental health in a far more compassionate way and allowed me not to beat myself up over the things I have no ability to change.

    Hope that makes some sense and helps?
