Hi im jordon
24 male
Within uk
Thought id finnaly come say hi and tell u about myself and maybe i can get advice on where to go with my life.
Diagnosed couple years ago
With autism/selective mutism
Which apparently cant be daignosed together but im just going on what i been daignosed with.
Also mild epelepsy tho i dont have fits unless there are onces u cant see .
I have no friends,never been college ,never had job unless u can count a paperound
I only have one goal which is to get a gf (never had one).
Tried internet dating on and off for four year but never evan got single date
I only go out once a week to a pub mainly trying to find gf
Tho at first i didnt talk to noone but now i sometimes talk to people depending on my mood etc
Actauly have 1 friend but i woudent say friend as we only meet up to drink like at pub
I wasnt getting any support so finnaly decided last year to take that step myself
To find autism groups
Most didnt get back to me
2 did
One said they would phone and give them number but never got the call
The other i went to once
But didnt like it as felt was too young for me and they all seem to be just doing activity related things which isint what i was looking for .
I did ask the autism one i went to for help like jobs but my dad said thats a bad idea
And well arent we supposed to agree with parents as they know best
Live with kinda stepmam
Used too live with dad but he moved
And i didnt want to go with
One main reason is s..
Id rather die than have to listen to that
It left me tramatised was the word i used and told my stepmam
But now my stepmam has a bf and well yeh u can guess why im not happy
Having to put music on for a while until it stopps so i can try sleep
But her new bf has autism son so i would have thouht they would have some respect and wait til i went to sleep or something especily since i told her about being tramatised and main reason i didnt go live with dad.
Also feel abandoned by my family they all have own lives now that they dont have time to help me there autism/selective mutism brother,child etc
Well anyway thx for your time and hopefully u can give me some advice on where i go from here as i just cant seem too figure it out myself so im looking for advice maybe friends .
