Yeah, I was a bit nonplussed when I was formally diagnosed with AS earlier this year. One thing I eventually liked, though, is finally being able to meet people who were similar to me. A few people in person, and more people on forums such as this one. It was such a relief, tbh. A regular income is, too. Best of luck in getting a job, hopefully soon.

And welcome to WP.

I know how you feel about the job situation. Have had interviews for jabs and have been turned down the same day and to this day i have not held a paying job i have been able to hold a volunteer position though. With me being a aspie it makes it hard to get a job. I am getting ready to start going to school for my emt or paramedic license i am not sure which i want to get yet. Good luck on finding a job.

"I just want a job."

I'm 25 and a recent college graduate. So with you there.
