Hi all

Hi all, I’m new here, I thought I’d come on here as I feel like I’m stuck in life atm, I have so many ideas I just can’t execute them, I don’t understand how to bring them to life, I get fixated on a lot of stuff that I can’t complete, I don’t know what I’m good at, I don’t know what qualities I have, I just don’t understand it all, I’m not a confident person, I have an obsession with moving to Spain and living in the middle of nowhere just in the sun, but I don’t like being around people to be able to earn money to afford that, does anyone have any advice they could share on how I could deal with these things it would be much appreciated, thankyou for taking your time to read this

  • Hello there Ms23! Welcome to the community!

    One thing that I can recommend is a fantastic book called “Self-Care for Autistic People” by Dr. Megan Anna Neff. It gives a good overall look at how to deal with many issues that us Autistics face on a daily basis. That might be helpful for dealing with some of the problems you’ve described.

    I have so many ideas I just can’t execute them, I don’t understand how to bring them to life

    What kind of ideas? Art? Stories? Music? Other plans?

  • Building businesses, creating faceless videos as I don’t have the confidence to show my face, doing accountancy courses, buying and selling, I have a hyperfixation on a house in Spain and I feel like it’s taking over my everyday life and feel like I need to do anything to get the money, it’s like it needs to be done like this second, I can’t grasp the concept of it’s going to take time, I wake up thinking about it I go to bed thinking about it, it doesn’t stop
