Hi all,
I’m Anselm, new to the community, and currently living in SE of England. Since my late teens and early adulthood (I’m nearly 40 yo) I’ve been often wondering why I feel a bit strange, different from my friends and colleagues. Some time ago someone commented that I have autism. I decided to read some articles about it and although never diagnosed with it, I thought it must be it.
I’m often struggling to be interested in anything and I constantly feel like I haven’t done enough. Even though I go to work for 8 hrs and follow my daily routines religiously always having something to do after work, still in the end of the day I feel like I haven’t done enough. I also find very difficult to relax, I don’t know how to relax, I feel like I must be performing and accomplishing all the time. What makes it worse is the thing that I don’t know what to do in life. I don’t know if this is something to do with autism or is it some other type mental health issue? Does anyone else feel this way? And how do you cope with it? Thanks
