Hey welcome to Wrong Planet
I know how you feel, not sure if you have heard that one before. Probably.
Ive always been the reject that failed at everything I did....but just knowing why and whats different about me has helped.
I hope you get some kind of meaning and direction here.

Now, I'm just the be-me Aspie who doesn't fit anywhere.

I refuse to become a fake human being. A parrot. "Shake hands with a firm grip, smile, make small meaningless talk..."
Maybe people in wheelchairs should learn to drag themselves up the stairs without a ramp. No, we give them support. Me, I got to change. I have to literally put on a mask everyday to just survive. I can't breath with that mask. I can't live like this anymore. I just can't.

Well, it's not a "proper" introduction. But it's probably the most honest I could be.

Hi Decepticon,
Your introduction has parallels to how I feel - especially that first sentence. I do think WP is about the best place there is for advice and support. I don't find that WP people are are judgmental and your likely to get better insight about AS than you would from many doctors
