Hello,

first time typer, first time viewer. Have aspergers and didn't know. Life makes sense now. Just struggling with hindsight and constant misunderstandings. Having a day where I could just cry. Really tired of it. Why are people like that? Why do they take me that way? I'm so far from what they perceive. And yes it's rhetorical questioning. I've tried explaining to managers and colleagues why I am who I am but that just confirms the whole "being to trusting" of people. Ending in ridicule and more misunderstandings. Please. I just need a hug right now and a cry.

Hi Uneek,

welcome to the community here. If I was able, I would give you a huge hug and lend you my shoulder to cry on. It can be tough when people are not understanding.

It sounds like your diagnosis was recent, I remember when I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, my life started to make a lot more sense.

The more you know, the better you will be able to move on in life. Other people may never understand, and that is annoying but okay.

All you can do is be the person you are! You have been diagnosed with Asperger's, that is not all you are though! You are you. A one off creation! A unique person like the rest of us!

Even if some people were to read a book about Asperger's they still might not get it.

I hope you feel welcome here. There are many parts to this forum, including a social section. Take your time and have a look around the site.

Crying can be great therapy!

Wishing you some understanding. More cyber hugs too if you want them. Cheers from Dools
