I need some advice

Bombshell93

I've known I've had aspergers syndrome for around 2 years now, apparently my parents have known for 10 years. They seem to think "I've grown out of it" and "I don't have it anymore" to semi-quote them.
I keep trying to explain to them how I feel around people, I can't tell if its fear or not but never the less its increadibly uncomfortable. I can only feel comfortable with people I know / have grown to know and the older I get the more discomfort I feel in general social situations.
I'm 18 at the moment naturally this is the time to get a job, but I've gotten to the point where I'm terrified to leave my house, I'm supposed to go into town and sign on for job seekers allowance today, but I don't know my way there, I'm freakign out, but I don't know what to do.
I've tried explainign to my parents I just don't think I could handle working with people, but to quote my father "Get it out of your head, there is nothing wrong with you". I'm stuck for words, I feel like I'm nagging if I try talking to my parents about it, but I can barely handle going to the dentists even with a parent, how am I supposed to keep myself calm when faced with a job, working with and for people.

Any and all advise would be appreciated I'm in a rough patch at the moment.
Thanks in advanced,
Bombshell
