Having Aspergers

Post Reply New Topic

Do people here have more bad luck than good luck? Is this have to do with Aspergers?

I feel like I have more bad luck than good luck sometimes. I think having autism is like having other disabilities, it's harder to fit-in & adapt to & handle things which causes things to go wrong in life more.

I have good luck with my teeth. No cavities at all.
But my friends make laugh on me because every time I shuffle cards, I get the worst hand.
Generally, when it comes to lotteries or other random things, I get significantly below statistics.

It is not luck, it is the disadvantages of being a small minority.

I wouldn't consider myself particularly "lucky." I think that word implies just chance alone. I don't play games of chance since I'm very bad at them. I consider myself fortunate in a lot of ways. I haven't attained full time employment because I lack direct experience with the public, a situation I hope to remedy. However, I have been more fortunate than most people here, some of whom have serious health problems. I at least have that going for me. I need to do certain things to stay that way, but I can do them.

I think with regard to outcomes, I about break even. In other words, you win some, you lose some.

I try to forget about the losses and enjoy the wins. Like, I was happy with how the elections went earlier this month. I think it's important to enjoy, reflect, gloat, and just be happy when you have a win.
