Like, in other words... do you often get depressed when you can't do things like everyone else? I guess that's a stupid question, isn't it? What I mean is, do you ever feel like a burden? I don't know how else to put this, so I'll post my own example of what I mean.
I hate the fact that my disabilities make it hard for me to go to the Disney parks. I have little to no concept of time, often get overloaded by my emotions and stuff like that. It's also hard for me to wait in long lines. The thing is that this makes me feel really low because I can't enjoy these parks or any place the same as anyone else. It makes me feel horrible because I want to be apart of something that everyone else can do on a normal basis, but I can't because my autism and other special needs make that a huge challenge.
Do you get what I'm trying to say? If so, do you ever have trouble being autistic? If not, how do you cope with the idea that you will never function the same as those around you?
