Family struggles

Kaijuwrangler54

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share something that's been weighing on me lately. My family has never really taken much interest in me as a person, and that includes my autism. I feel like they don’t want to understand me, or even try.

Theres just basically no contact just wondering if anyone else is the same, any shared experiences or just any advice?

Thanks for reading

  • I'm quite content in my little bubble. I'm not particularly interested in other peoples lives and that includes my direct family.

    I wasn't assessed until last year but I've obviously always had a few "issues", one of which is my almost inability to connect with others.

    If I have virtual daily contact with someone, it seems to stick, other than that I just drift away from them.
