I beg to differ. Sure NT's are better at things concerning socializing, but Aspies are good in other things. For example, we tend to have interests that we focus on. Sometimes it captures our attention so much we invest hours into it because we enjoy it so much. This is beneficial because this can result in us educating ourselves. NT's also have interests that they like, but they tend to not focus on it as much as we do.

Having Asperger's can be difficult in terms of socialization. However, the world has much else to offer. You should focus on the positives of being an Aspie.

People with disabilities and genetic disorders are hated and shunned by everybody else, so they should abandon the hope of getting a job.
There's nothing good about having a disability.

I'm an Aspie with a co-occurring mental illness, degrees and good job I enjoy. It's absolutely possible to have disabilities and live a good life.

Please seek help. You sound like you're depressed. Getting screened by your GP can't hurt and can help. Loads.

Absolutes are never absolutely true. My paintings are very time consuming. People have told me that it looks really boring to do, but it isn't to me, and they always sell.

The trick is finding something that you enjoy doing, that has a marketable value.

Sounds nice but it's hard to do.

i have 5 friends that are all NT, and i am the second most wealthy among them.
one is the wife of a mogul so i guess that is OK to lose to.
nt's have not interrupted my progress to wealth, they have augmented it.
they want what i have, and i do not care to have what they have, so it is a marriage made in heaven according to them, and to me it is the same except for a different reason.

i have what i want and that is good enough for me.

^Another extremely lucky aspie.
Sometimes I fantasize about having a bright future in which my interest is properly exploited and I'm a happy independent adult, but then I wake up to the tough reality and I know it's not going to happen, instead I'll probably end up a homeless man eating from dumpsters. :cry:

Umh, no. I am not abandoning all hope because of my disability. I know I have talents in life. I am very good at mathematics and I like working with computers.

You need to see the positives of being an Aspie. Until then will you feel a lot better about whichever situations you come across.

You can get a job just dont disclose your autism right away after your hired, put on your NT facade prior and your gtg!

9 9.9% of jobs and businesses know this and have to employ you after hiring you regardless, Yeah I say um in my vid alot XD! But provide good honest advice! You can get a job just have to put in the effort and dont disclosee your info of being autistic until after your hired! If they fire you after finding out then you can sue them and make millions and 99.9 % of businesses know this , Its tough but its how the world works! Show them what you can do and they will not judge you and you can prove you can get things done regardless of your neurological disorder!
