| I know the feeling. It took me two years of college before I finally convinced myself that I legitimately needed help and actually devoted the energy necessary to work up the courage to see someone. It was tough and fraught with anxiety, but I'm really glad I got the help. Basically, you've just go... |

| Since you are in college you should have health benefits that include counseling. I would recommend checking into possibly seeing a counselor for this problem. College can be a stressful time and it is helpful to have a balance between studying and having some fun with college friends, but not so m... |

| Pretty much every day after going to college, I feel really depressed like I just wanna die and I wish I was never born. It's been this way since I started college over 3 years ago. I feel all right when people are actually talking to me and I have something interesting to do or I do something that ... |

| The 'negative' symptoms of schizophrenia such as social withdrawal, executive function issues etc can occur in other conditions too, including Aspergers and depression. It is possible that you are developing schizophrenia, but it's equally likely that it could be something else. No one here can dia... |

| The reason I think I'm developing schizophrenia, is because I don't really want friends or family. I basically just want to be alone. I don't have hallucinations, but I might have delusions. Just looking at them, I seem to fit the DSM-IV criteria. And, it's not that bad... yet. I feel like I might ... |

| What I'm good at is essentially Mathematics and programming. And, I know how to make video games. So, basically I want to make small independent games for a living. And if I'm lucky, I can make something that will become widely popular, and I'll be set for life. The only problem is getting the motiv... |

| Hi, okay, one thing, please feel free to continue to use us here at WP as one resource among many. We can pretty good on the autistic side with at times pretty good ideas, and I guess rather slow to learn on the schizophreniform side. But we can learn. And any doctor you have a positive pre-existin... |

How do I get help?
I can't afford to pay for anything, and I don't have medical insurance.
Honestly, I'm afraid to talk to anyone. |

| I am highly autistic, and I am gradually developing schizophrenia. (I have been the past five years or so.) I think it's called, ' schizophreniform disorder .' In that time, I've never been able to remove my constant feeling of suicidal anhedonia. (i.e. How pointless it is to continue a purposeless ... |

| I remember when I felt like you did, intensely angry and depressed, trying to fit in, not having meltdowns and thinking that life would be better if you didn't exist... Truthfully though, that only makes you feel inadequate when your a lot better than that. You can't let that stuff become you. I'm ... |

| Well, lately I've come to the realization that I have really really low self-confidence... and I have for a while. I was in denial, because I don't give off that feeling when I talk to people, I think. Well, people don't understand that you can be 'good-looking' and still have low self-esteem, which... |

| When it comes to dating someone, in my opinion, you don't have to take into account whether they are ASD or NT. Most people don't even know about the subtle differences (or know much, if anything, about autism) that comes with AS. In the end, you are just looking for someone with good traits and cha... |

| Hey. Thanks everyone that replied! This was helpful, and made me realize that I shouldn't be afraid to like a woman, even if we might not have very much in common. My only issue is that there might not be much to talk about... but I don't talk that much anyway. Then again, I can talk a lot if it is ... |

| Is it really necessary to have a lot in common for people to like each other? Is it possible for there to be a certain 'chemistry' that surpasses those bounds? I'm asking, because I have no experience in this matter... Is it really hard to have a romantic relationship with someone when you have very... |
