| Hi everybody, How do you cope with incomprehension and disbelief from your surrounding? I feel constantly misunderstood and am trying so hard to fit in, but it just doesn't work. Whenever I tell ppl about my autism, I experience they don't really understand autism, especially in woman. Trying to exp... |

| I also over-analyse a lot, but I don't know how to do things different. Once I learned enough about certain situations, my behaviour will look more natural. Still, every evening I analyse every conversation I had that day, and think about what the person might have meant with it, what I should said,... |

| You should do what's right, not just what's easy. Just think about it, it's still your choice, but I think it's cowardly to refuse to face your problems. Don't intent to offend you, but this is how I see the world. |

| Isn't this just walking away from all your problems? Isn't that like ignoring everything instead of dealing with it and finding a solution? You should have a very good reason to walk away then I think. Don't just go away because it's easier. |

| I also have trouble asking others for help and explaining how bad I'm feeling. Today I told my friend litteraly: "Help me please", and that's just the start. I couldn't really answer when she asked me what I need help with, but at least she knows I need help with something. Maybe tomorrow, when she ... |

| well maybe support from others would be alright, but I hate hugs. :wink: Then perhaps instaid of a hug someone can give you chocolate, that's good too. I really hope you can find someone you can trust. Feeling other people care about you and hate to see you so sad, will perhaps give you hope and st... |
