Hi, I'm new too!

Post Reply New Topic

Thank you, richie!

This thing is just like having a big rock removed from my stomack. I'm no longer unique (in a bad way) and feel at peace.

oh yeah tell me about it, wonder why its so incredible impossible to chance such a bad habit pattern. Well, it wont get easier out of the fact I dont have any work to go to at all, that gives plenty of space of twisting the nights.

So, I welcome you too here, feels a bit weird as I was just about welcommed myself but I wanted to support your topic as you supported mine.
I hope you feel comfortable in time and find what is You in Aspergers. I walked undiagnosed half a year from the date I first heard about it to the day I got my diagnosis. For some people its important to have a diagnosis to find "the true yourself formally", at least it was like that for me.
Good Luck!

Edit: oops, my first edit, I got the quoting functions wrong

Thank you xalepax! This means a lot to me.

Constantly oversleeping is not based on laziness or carelessness. In the jobs I've had as a software developer (even was senior software developer at one point), I've always managed to mess it all up because of my capability to either never show up, or show up, just many hours too late.

Software development is a very precise handicraft, and with my extraordinary sense of detail and my over-developed perfectionism, combined with my fast typing speed, I do the work of five people in a day (when I'm actually there). Always flawless, easy-to-read code (In a company, other developers have to be able to read it) and almost always completely bug-free at once. When are companies going to wake up and notice they are missing out?

xalepax: What are you good at? And what do you want to do? Do those things correlate to each other?

I hope you have a good time here.
You sound like a dream programmer for any company as long as you get to stay home for work.

Hello and welcome. I have to say, most of what you've said here about yourself reminds me a lot of myself, right down to your thoughts that your condition might be unique and your reactions when you actually found out about this forum. My outlook has really been changed in the space of about two weeks; I have a feeling it might be that way for you as well. A lot of us are in the same boat here, and if there's one place you can come to find understanding, both from others and to better understand yourself, it's here.

If I start to reply on that it will be a quite long post of mine which I for the time beeing feel belongs better in the "find a job and keep it -forums" I might tell more about it one day. All I can reply now is the last question that they DONT correlate to each other witch is a great problem at the moment. If I would only give it a go for things Im good at I probably would end up owning my own company - something which I dont want to

Welcome, Kenjuudo!

Thanks, Berns!

xalepax: Don't worry, nobody is pushing you.
