Tomorrow I meet with the neuropsychiatrist. If I think it is what I think it is, then you know what I think it is about. If I don't think it is what I think it is, then it's all up in the wind I guess.

I'm kinda nervous. There is a part of me that says that I most certainly have it and says it is my most pressing issue. Another says that my Tourette's is my biggest barrier to finding and maintaining work. Maybe I should just say that they are equal in that regard.

My Tourette's is most certainly a barrier to finding work as it, in the current state as it is, limits me from doing too physical of work. I tried to do a dishwashing job a couple weeks ago just for the money. I lasted four and a half hours before I imply lost control of the tics as it felt that there was pressure being built upon me upon closing the place. At that point I felt it was too unsafe for me to handle trays all full of kitchen knives.

My suspected Asperger's, as was discussed extensively in the CBT's vocational portion, most certainly makes me too often be perceived as being dismissive or inattentive. I know this has kept me from holding jobs for more than a couple months. The only jobs that have lasted more than one and a half months have ended when I tried upgrading to something more than what required me to do something that was mere rote repetition to complete tasks.

I credit both of these conditions for limiting me for driving or something. Maybe. Don't know.

Oh well, I await tomorrow.
