I am just learning of Asperger’s and it is like reading my son’s biography! Wish I had known these things 23 yrs ago! My son probably could have had a happier childhood w/ less struggle and more confidence in himself. We are working towards that goal now. Baby steps! The newsletters I have been receiving via e-mail are wonderfully informative! Thanks for all your help in helping me to help my son.

@TheCoolestKid15 You just showed your absolute ignorance and lack of empathy. I feel sorry for you, especially if some day you are faced with some kind of struggle. I hope no one mocks your despair and pain, I really do.

Leave the alcohol hun, it wont help you. Just keep trying, and concentrate on being happy. There are so many things that you CAN do. It’ll be hard, but if you battle it ot im sure you’ll find everything you want.

@Nickolaz19 Interesting. I am 20 years old and in college. It has been extremely difficult for me because nothing has come out right. I’m studying political science and i hate it. I love studying and reading about viruses. I just don’t drink. I don’t have a GF either. It all right. Time will tell

I am 20 years old, and I was diagnosed with Aspergers. I feel so alone and isolated right now, when I get depressed I tend to sabotage myself. I’m having thoughts of suicide and it is hard to breathe

I’m in this boat right now as well. Definitely suicidal. Definitely depressed. Definitely anxious.
I have friends, but none of mine live near me, so I can’t see them face to face. I can talk with them online – and I do – but there isn’t anything they can do to help.
My parents don’t care, either. I’m basically pretty much alone.

That lad at 2:40 looks like Fred/Lucas. Fred definitely has severe social impairment!

if iwas able to drive and had a job and car etc.. and was able to live and make it on my own I think my own anxity and depression would be alot better.:) I dont think ill live to be anb old man or if i do then i am probably going to fall by living on the street or forest untill i die. Or locked away strapped to bed with an IV.

My child has AS 9yrs old, always knew something wasnt right, he’s very talented and knowledgable about his topics. ADHD Anxiety medications life’s a nightmare.

Here’s some irony. I’m watching this video about AS cos i have it, but it’s useless to me, because i don’t care about it. This guy and video tries to be all emotional, but fails miserably. It really doesn’t say much as it talks.
What’s the point here? Is this meant for other people?

There is a higher rate of anxiety and depression for people with Asperger’s than those without, so thank you for highlighting this area of concern. There is help available from the support of loved ones and friends, from counseling to learn how to fight off thinking errors and learn stress reduction strategies, and possibly medication. Also, although anxiety and depression often do go hand in hand, they can also exist separately.

I am an aspy, and I found that the only way to push foward is to toughen up your mental block.

I thought this was a good video – it’s to help parents and people on the outside understand what it’s like to be an aspy and maybe STOP trying to ‘toughin’ us up or otherwise subject us to horrendous stress for ‘our own good’.
