That horrible feeling

shoekitten

Today at work I just felt out of sorts. It seemed that colleagues were blanking me ie hugging each other hello but I got a vague "hi", when I asked how everyones weekend was no one bothered to answer but seemed to be having an animated chat amongst themselves. My supervisor seemed to make a few pointed remarks about 'a bad atmosphere' though I wasn't aware of any problems. In my mind it seemed to be directed at me.

I've had a horrible sinking feeling in my stomach, thinking I did something really wrong that no one has spoken to me about. Also I feel paranoid, as if every move I make is being watched. Am I alone? Is this an AS thing?

    I got in work very late today after being sent on a course that I wasn't booked for (her fault) given 3 big jobs to take care of . Then at 12.30 she tells me the case study I was given to write for Friday this week is in fact due at 2pm today! Had to work through lunch in a brain burning frenzy. I got it done by 2.03pm. She knows I can't deal with sudden changes to my schedule,especially major stuff like case studies (usually have a week to do them). She's setting me up to fail..I know she is!

    It looks to me as though she's undermining your diagnosis. In her head, you can do it and your just being awkward or don't realise your potential? In some of my previous places of work I've heard people saying such things.

    I know this might sound silly, but I think people with AS are attracted to certain careers and people with personality disorder's are attracted to other's. I personally think a lot management and HR people have personallity disorders, not all or course, but the little niggly ankle biter kinds.
