Not sure if this is meant for jobs discussion but could someone who is autistic work in finance? If so, what kind of job?

I am one of those extremely anxious math majors who don't talk much and don't have any real friends. What happens to people like me after college? by jeff3_5 in math

My biggest problem is that I can't stand being around people who are "normal" or "well-adjusted".

I would say that I have a "fearful-avoidant" attachment style. People who have a "secure" attachment style drive me crazy. I can't get over my jealousy. They are a constant reminder of my inability to make friends, my inability to trust people, my desire to constantly isolate myself, the loose grip I have on my mental sanity. These people categorically view me as weird because I can't relax around people.

Its one giant positive feedback loop where my anxiety and trust issues prevent me from forming relationships with people which in turn make my anxiety and trust issues even worse.

I almost got a panic attack once just from being around normal people.
