My Mom is ill. They say it's probably bronchitis but it might be pneumonia. I'm worried.

I got in a fight with my family. I am a very argumentative person, and I get in tiffs with people a lot because I feel like a victim all the time and would rather sit around and do nothing to help myself than to actively acknowledge and do something about my problems.
A lot of it has to do with having no understanding of how the world works, society works, people work, or how to manage responsibility. I'm hoping to change myself, but the knowledge that I need to start soon scares me more than I've ever been scared in my life before.
I just don't know how to change. I feel like I have a hole in my heart, and I can't ease the destructiveness of that hole. I wish I was whole, instead of having one. I wish I was flawed with something comparatively smaller.
I'm afraid. I don't know why I didn't start to change my life sooner, and all the consequences of it are falling all around me, and I have no one to blame but myself.

It's never too late to get help. There's people who can help you solve those questions.
In any case, going to bed at 1:30am (+1 hour for daylight savings) then waking up at 3:30pm is really annoying. Getting sleep is nice, but, 14 hours is a killer..
Yeah, definitely. I have been for the past few months, and I plan on continuing down a better road. I've never been the sort of person to help myself. But I know that if I don't, then I will end up with a very sad quality of life. I don't want that, my family doesn't want that, my friends don't want that.
It's more... the absolute terror of doing something new. And knowing that I have to do it, even though I'm terrified. And there's no way around it, it's time for me to grow up. The vacation was fun and now there's work to be done.
It's refreshing to know other people the same way about doing new things
Unfortenately we can't really sit around and do nothing our whole lives.. I wish we could. I wish my parents were insanely rich and I could just mooch off them and post on WP 16 hours a day. My sister went to college at 26, my mom in her 40s if you'd believe that.
It's really hard when you don't know anything about society and the world.. I can't figure out relationships, work, how to interact with co-workers or anything.. somehow I've managed to hold down my job for almost 4 years. Autism makes it all ALOT harder, but it's not really impossible, contrary to what alot of the folks on the spectrum will say.

Somone on another site I go on hasn't shown up, and now I probably won't see them again until tomorrow, if that. I'm too obsessed, but hardly anyoneelse is online, so because they live in the same time zone as me, I talk to them more. And I'm alone right now.

I just signed up for my first class, the other two I need to see an adviser for. I have gotten the appointment made today!
I don't really like the idea of spending so much time around so many different people that I don't know, but the courses I'm going to take are going to be really helpful. I'm going to take a study strategy class, a self esteem class, and a first year class. Maybe with the right introduction to college, it will be less terrifying.
I do find it very disheartening when people on the spectrum say that they absolutely cannot do something. I see people with AS do things that are uncomfortable all the time. When someone says that they can't, it not only hurts them, it hurts other people that were diagnosed with Asperger's. It gives society the wrong impression. The impression that says that we're incapable of responsibility, follow through, financial stability, and being happy with ourselves. I think individuals with AS need to understand that their happiness is not only important for themselves, it is important for generating a positive view of peoples on the Autism spectrum.
And, of course, I would just like to see people being happy.
And to get back on topic, something that really made me unhappy today was finding out that I had to wait until Friday to see an adviser. I had hoped I would be able to get my classes set up today.
