I'm also starting to feel less and less related to my family, they support each other, as a family would, so I feel like I'm being ganged-up on alot. (I also can wait to get a nose-job and bleach my hair so I won't LOOK like them, either)

I have no personality, and when I show it, it's usually in the form of 2-year-old style temper tantrums (so that dosen't count as it's not worthy of counting)

Everyone thinks I'm either crazy or faking. But guess what, humans? I'm not a part of your revolting, disgusting race! I am not related to my so called "family" and there's nothing you can do to make me act normal or even NT!


Yet... I'm a follower and wish ever so much to be NT and mentally healthy that I laugh at people who are proud of themselves for who they are just to hide my jealousy of them.

I may not get either of the two jobs I signed applications for because it's like they automatically know I'm not fit to have a job. THEY KNOW ME WITHOUT EVEN HAVING TO SEE ME IN PERSON. Paranoid, yes. But I cannot help thinking this way even though alot of people say I have to start helping it. He-llo! Can't help it means it's practically involutnary! How am I supposed to get control of it? Through self-awareness, that's how! But it's not easy to get! So how am I supposed to get it?????

I am going crazy from all these humans making me angry and thinking I am one of them. Well, they know and understand so little....



Hello Aspie friend, don't worry you are not alone. One of my quotes is Never become a Conformist. It's boring and evil. Be yourself and when there are times when you can't be yourself, don't lose hope, you'll be living on your own very soon. I totally know what you mean. I'm 21 and still live with my society norm obeying conformist parents. I'm going to be leaving in 4 months when I move into my very own appartment.

Now you were mentioning about self-awareness and how to get it. Unfortunatly, that's the number one problem with AS that's permanent. We are all Social Blind meaning we can't read scilent social cues. But I know what could help you out for the time being. SATIRE! It's a comedic artform where you can make fun at all the idiots in the world. Trust me, I have my own 30min internet TV show and I do it all the time. It helps me laugh at the world and gain myself confidence. But like most Aspies, we will fall into a slope of depression and so we have to find positive ways to get ourselfs out of it.

Now when you say that you have the personality of a child, THAT'S A GOOD THING! It's called The Inner Child! It's most important piece within your soul. Basicly your inner child is angry because you are hurt, in emotional pain, and yerning for help. I know how you feel. I too wished that I can gain wings and fly the heck outta my parents house so I don't have to put up with their nagging and seriousness EVER AGAIN! But I just have to wait 4 more months.

Don't worry, you'll get there. Try to talk to your parents and ask them when you will be able to move into your own appartment. If they say something like "You got to show us", Then you got to play their game for awhile in order for them to give you that key of freedom.


By the way, if you ever need someone to chat with, email me at ericcrooks@sbcglobal.net. ;) HANG IN THERE FRIEND! ;)

That could be the nail in your coffin if you do that stuff a lot or do anything severe.

Yeah people are screwed up.
Work for and live for whatever good you can find, it's all you can really do.

Fickle_Pickle, I can somewhat relate...

Generally, people in a group appears to be quite stupid, individuals seem to have a level of intellect...

So: those that are more independent than co-dependent on group-think have a higher level of potential...

I love women, yet they are confusing, the more NT and less AS they are, the mroe confusing they are, also the more B.S. there is to deal with...

I can deal with routines, obsessive behaviors (not destructive kinds) and other aspie/autie traits much better than the NT traits, such as shallowness, the excessive social stuff that seems to be vain in nature or other behavior traits that seem unnatural or unhealthy...

Things are confusing and the such...

Look for independent individuals who are going to be themselves in spite of waht others are doing, who do not strive for group think or what is popular here and now and such...

Those independent types, AS or NT, there is hope for the human race.... those of the group think (sheeple -> sheep people) seem to be a lost cause....


Be you!
be true to your self, because no one else will..

Cant keep everyone happy, but it is better to have respect than to try to please people...

And, you need to respect yourself first, then others will be more apt to respect you...

The sheeple with their group think will smother your differences that do not align with their group think... fark them, be you and better yourself, don't dumb yourself to find acceptance with the sheeple, rather... rise above it, learn and grow from it... I have been doing that for a few decades now and it is not easy... but I am a better person because of it... And you can also...

I take it you took a personality tests. I think those tests are BS, made to "weeve" out aspies and other minorities, and they do just that. I will fail getting any job that has that personality test bung, because I don't lie on these tests.

Walmart, Walgreens, KFC, and Garden ridge, all have personality tests. Of course I never got a call back, despite that Garden ridge had been "Now hireing" for over five years straight now. :x Those terds! On the other hand, three things are the reason they always hireing. They boss is a major butt hole, the job really sucks, or the hireing is just a $% stupid system!


The only reason I am able to pass these tests is that I roleplay as being he ideal employee for the company and the ideal NT type of know enough to do the job but that is about it... I see it as being an actor, but applying it to something more worthwile than Hollywood...

I am not lying but it is also practice in roleplaying as being a NT to better my ability to adapt in communicating and integrating among NT's in the outside world...

I would try the thing about satire, but I'm not observant enough for it. I just see everyone as callous when I know that I'm the one being too sensitive.

I see it completely different. Although I have almost exclusively negative experiences interacting with people, I feel they aren't evil, just less intelligent and therefore more egocentric. NT's are in reality pretty easy to figure out and much more logical. Be the zoo-keeper and observe them. It's fun! :)

Like I said, my powers of observation are WEAK!! ! It just won't work. Besides, I'm the sub-species below humans; they RULE me!

Besides, I have Borderline/Histrionic personality disorder (although no one believes me) and I'll just exaggerate everything as I see things in black and white. :cry: :cry: :cry:
