I feel like dying.

I'm so depressed at the minute. I'm just so tired of not fitting in, feeling lonely and bored all the time. I just wish I was normal and could communicate/interact socially like most other people. I can't even fit in here, with people who are supposedly similar to me. I just want it all to end.

I think most people here feel the same way

How are we supposed to get through it? How are we supposed to live for another 50+ more years feeling like this

Yeah, I know how you feel. We aspies tend not to be too social, don't take it personally. Like you said we don't fit in, so naturally we tend to be anti-social because all the people who are normal and social will not accept us, and many discourage us from being accepted.

You should not feel bad. You have AS, that is a great thing. I feel sorry for the normal people, who will live life never knowing the world we see. That's part of the reason they are social, most of them are not intelligent enough to think for themselves. They are like ants in many ways. But, if you have AS, your not an ant. You are much better than they are, you have proven that you can make it on your own. Most normals could never do that and the only reason they do is because there is someone to help them.

You may not have intense popularity or anything (I don't either). But I wake up everyday glad I am an aspie, I feel like I am a human, version 2.0. The rest of the world is slowly starting to figure out that us aspies are probably going to be needed for the human race to survive. As I am sure you know, aspies typically have something they are really, really good at. We will need this if we are to survive as a human race. Believe me, the future for aspies is bright, normal humans might be in a bit of trouble coping with that.

I was feeling this way just days ago having tried to socialise and as usual not been able to be at ease or integrate with people.
I think, you either have to just keep trying, or you accept the way you are and find the things which you enjoy and focus on achieving things outside of a social circle.

Keep at it, don't give up. The more you socializ, eventually, at least some of it will "click" and once you make one new friend, others will follow. But it takes time, takes time and you have to know when to take it easy and keep from having a "meltdown."
My internet's fried at home, I'm at my best friend's place, so I can't write much more yet... but I'll be back and just know that we all are rooting for you! And I'm rooting for all of you! We are not alone, we on WP at least

Just keep working at it until you find people that appreciate you. They probably exist.

That's what I've started doing back in November, when I've moved into my own place. I'm now friends with with five people who accept me and appreciate my company. My years of lonliness before than are now just a memory.

I know exactly how ou feel.


Why is it that I can identify with every depressed person on this board, and even off it? I've ha every manifestation of depression there is. Please PM me if you want; we can talk! You can also join our Depressives Club in the Members-Only forum! And check out the Aspie commune thread in the Random Discussion forum; you seem to need to get away from NTs for at least a while and be around people like us!

Life sometimes feels like everyday is the same. You feel that you don't matter. Your nothing more but a shadow that no one ever notices. Just another nobody on earth.

Don't worry buddy, I know your pain. We all do.
We know the type of S*** that you go through day in and day out.

Even though you are reading text and not seeing our faces, remember, behind these words, is an offical Aspie waitting to type to you.

Oh man I really wish I could be with you guys cause I need friends badly too!

I feel pretty sh***y too

We all need to be together: wblastyn, username88, and anyone else here who wants to be! I'm getting a room or apartment soon as soon as I get my shrink to give me a note to take to Social Services saying it's bad for my mental health to live with my mother! The Y is very secure so I'm hoping I can convince them to take a bunch of us into a big room.

I need to be alone is what I need
