I'm 26 years old .. I've lived at home all my life. I'm tired of it. I'm autistic, I applied to be re-located, etc. I had a physical done, everything.. and my papers have been submitted to the state. Have any aspies gone through similar experiences?? I don't know how it'll be like going forward. I apply myself and try and do things normally to the best of my capabilities.. I'm optimistic though.

I wish I could be one of those rugged individualists like some of the high-functioning aspies here on things like PP&R, but i'm not, I am also dependent on the goodwill of the state as well.

What's normal anyway?

I do live on my own, but I am still financially dependent on my parents though. Not fun either.
