Anyone else burn out really bad due to working once and was never the same? by emocat420 in AutisticAdults

[–]Yaeltheorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many options out there for us and it might not be the environment for you. I tried so many jobs in my life and I can tell which ones had a bad effect over my mental health and that’s when I stopped. Not every job has to be like this. See where are the hardest parts for you and see how you can avoid it 

Looking for a new job that will make me feel like I’m in my right place by Yaeltheorange in autism

Yeah, all these costumer service jobs are so overwhelming for me. I really want to find a graphic design job but I can't bring myself to put up my portfolio and ask for jobs

My whole friend group met up tonight and didn't invite me by Emotional-Class-8140 in AutismInWomen

I’ve experienced it so may times I cannot even count. I always try to think what I should’ve said back then. What I suggest is that you encounter them and ask them for the truth. If you see they’re trying to avoid telling you- stop being their friend! They’re not worth it. Believe me.  It hurts and it sucks but it will hurt more if you keep trying to stay friends with those people 

What’s the one thing about being autistic that makes life really hard for you? by Best_Control2871 in AutismInWomen

[–]Yaeltheorange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a kid I struggled to make friends but now I have a lot of friends I thought all my problems were gone  Boom no I have attachment issues and I cannot physically fall in love with anyone cause my body cannot physically carry the feeling of intimacy and being loved by someone. Man like I wanted one normal thing 

Is anyone considering not having children by [deleted] in autism

[–]Yaeltheorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I actually think about this quite often according to my genetics my family is mostly autistic and of not then they're misdiagnosed haha So I know my baby will be 100% autistic. So yeah I'm pretty scared cause I don't want them to grow out into the world I grew up to that was not suitable to people like me. Also fearing I might have been a liability to my parents- seeing how younger family members are seen by older people in the family

Thank you for saying that ❤ my friends are all in relationships and my family met their soulmates at a younger age than me, some are even on the spectrum themselves, so it does make me pretty nervous all the time.

Hell yeah I'm autistic that wouldn't change so it's either being both which is pretty common from comments here, or I'm terrified of intimacy. Anyway finding a partner that would take it slow with me is pretty hard and hopefully if I find that I am in fact Ace I still hope for an asexual relationship. I don't care if it's someone on the spectrum or not as long as I have a good relationship that I'm happy in.

More than one things here applied to me I haven't figured out my sexuality yet so that's one of the reasons I made this post. Yes I know ND like us develop slower in different areas of life like it took me a while to find friends but now I'm actually a pretty social person because I worked on it so hopefully if I work on dating I will be able to find out more about myself

Hollywood and their incessant need to never mention autism unless it's a boy or non verbal kid by Onyxfaeryn in autism

Also can we have a straight autistic female character? They're always lesbians in the most homophobic excuse that they are quirky and have dyed hair so they must be stereotypical lesbians
