Hello to my fellow Aspies

Hi everyone! I decided to join the WrongPlanet forum because recently I have begun embracing Asperger's after years of denial. I was diagnosed when I was 11 years old but only recently accepted it. I am proud of who I am. I currently am going through what is a difficult and frustrating time. After four years of college, I am about to graduate with my B.A. In college, I have been successful as far as GPA is concerned and I have also and flourished socially during my last two years of college. I actually sort of have multiple (NT!) friends now which was not the case during my pre-college school years). However, my success has come to an end and now I feel like I am failing at everything I am trying to do to better myself and ensure that I live a successful life after college. I just got rejected for a job that I really really wanted--I flew out to another state halfway across the country on my own dime for the second round of interviews (they did a phone interview for the first one). So yeah, I am encountering life and I am not too good at it apparently.
