New member with Aspergers and severe anxiety, please say hello!

Hello, people! I'm not sure what to say here, but I have diagnosed Aspergers along with all sorts of anxiety issues (BDD, general anxiety, terrified of phones, plenty of other situational anxieties) and depression. I don't really have any friends on or offline and I find myself emotionally unable to cope with people, so I'm horribly lonely. Hence being here!

(Incidentally I could go into a rant about how impossible it is as an adult to get any sort of support for these things but it really goes without saying, I've been sleeping on a sofa for the last few months and there's nothing I can do about it because of my fear :| )

    Sorry to hear about your issues, I'm in the process of a potenial diagnosis as an adult myself and I have a son of 6 who is likely to also be an Aspie too.  Vent away that's what this forum is for, sharing your worries with people who are in a similar boat to yourself.  Isn't it possible to communicate by a simlar system to email (can't think what its called) "text.."something (for deaf people etc).  That almost sounds like discrimination to me, not providing another method of communication other than the phone.
