| Is it normal for us Aspies not being able to push ourselves the same way ''NT'' men do and if we can't we are looked at as ''weak''? even though I only work at Burger king my self esteem is going down and I feel mentally and physically weak that I can't keep up |

| I don't want to remember high school at all trust me I just can't figure out why everybody seems to have a good time maybe they are all ''NT'' and I ended up leaving after a huge meltdown and picking up my diploma, maybe we aren't wired for NT life or only small doses? |

| I was wondering what is this societal stigma that if you are not married and have kids by the time you are 31 something is wrong with you or some people think differently of you?

| Is it just our neurological makeup where we can't cope with alot of stress and multitasking? I can deal though but it all piles up then panic attacks, I attempt to take the NT route but it feels ''fake'' or ''somethings missing'' |
