Hello :)

Hello,

I have mild asperger's, when I was little I attended councelling sessions but when I went in to high school I tried my hardest to avoid it and get on as I suffered from bullying anyway, I did not want to be singled out for having asperger's too.  I'm now 22 and supress the matter as I was always too embarrassed to tell people and have to explain. Recently I got a new job and the stress of trying to fit in is bringing out nervous ticks and making me feel quite down, I've never had this issue in my previous jobs but this one is an apprenticeship and I had high hopes to learn and be taught about the industry, instead my manager could not be less interested in me, hasn't set me a specific job role and my colleagues think I am 'lazy' as I get the small jobs I am given done in no time at all so it seems as though I am not doing anything. Just thought perhaps I could come on here to find some advice as I really do not know where I fit in or who I can turn to anymore.
