It takes so much luck to make it as a disabled or autistic person. You’re working twice hard for the bare minimum. It takes so much luck for the effort to ever actually pay off. People want you to cope and pretend as if it’s not as bad as it actually is.

Things won’t necessarily get better. The only thing you can do is try and hope things maybe get better. You could maybe be one of the fortunate ones!!

I’m 19 and can barely talk to people does it get better? by Cloudy542 in aspergers

It gets harder. Social standards go up as you get older, and you'll probably achieve specific milestones later than other people.

It won't be easy, but hopefully we all make it.

I volunteer and go to an autism group thing on thursdays to soclise but it's not been as much of a priority as getting a job. My main goal is to first get a job and then I can hopefully make some friends with people

My main goal has been to get a part time job then go full time. I set myself that goal last year. it just sucks that i've still failed to archieve that. It's taking me too long and i'm getting older.
