So I end up here

[Alan tm]

I was the kid sat against the wall, the outcast .the one who didn't get it .
Later in life being screamed at but not getting it .

Isolated and secretive .

Can't Seem to love .

Blanket weight becomes a battle, light touch horrible, strip lights make me feel ill .
I either feel freaked out by unknown things or feel numb to the normal.

Sick of trying to work it out .

The right moment never arrives .

Life must be more simple than this

So you end up here. Finally in the right place, I'd say. Welcome to AC, Alan.

Welcome Alan. You have come to the right place, the place where others get it because they live it too.

I hope you will find more peace and strength once you get familiar with this forum and read more about ASD, especially from the perspective of others with ASD.

With self awareness comes clarity and understanding. Be kind to yourself. You've survived this far without answers ... imagine how far you'll go now you know where to look

Hi I really didn't expect anyone reply or notice this.
So thanks for that.
I'm absolutely burnt out this week, my sleep is totally messed up.

I'm at a point where I'm just sick of the battle.

I don' tell anyone about things , I try to hint to them sometimes .
I've overheard people taking in other conversations saying
asperger doesn't even exist ,they say adhd, then they say that doesn't even exist, it's anxiety.

That really does explain why I may as well be a roll of carpet
When held. And all the "what should I be doing now " situations .
I could make a huge list but sick of thinking about it.

Right now I don't Care about the labels or what I'm meant to do or say or react like. It doesn't change what I am.

Sorry for sounding so down.im totally burnt out
I'm overwhelmed right now and don't know what sections of this site
To look at x

Good morning Alan.
Rest here a while and just relax.
Read some posts, do some exploring of the many and varied subjects on site.
Be curious, you may find some answers

Welcome to AC.

Hello and welcome. Life's always been confusing for even the best of people, and the most we can hope for is that we have people we can trust right beside us every step of the way. I hope you find that here.

Welcome, @Alan tm! Sometimes, when life gets too rough, you just need a little cuteness overload to ease your worried mind for a while. So here you go. A hamster on a swing!

Thanks for positive comments.
I’ve been trying to look around this site but it’s so scattered in topics that I can’t find the basics.

Is there a central section .

@Alan tm

I see you figured out the Like etc buttons.

If you go to the Forums page, you will see a Search Window.
I have made a smudge of yellow in the Search Window in this screenshot.

You could try Searching for topics.
Or look under the heading labeled forums, on the Forums page.

 

[Alan tm]

Ok I’ll try that and see if I get stuck .
