I'm tired. I am not connecting with anyone. Everything I do feels superficial. My therapist decided she wasn't right for me, and I don't feel like finding another one. Everything people says feels superficial, like they are just expecting me to magically cheer myself up. I am just drifting. Trying to obsess about something new just leads to boredom and disappointment. I feel like I'm burning up, oddly every evening. Can I just give up for a while? I'm tired of trying to succeed. I can't say anything to anyone. They just throw everything back at me in ways that just makes me feel worse. So many expectations, and I don't feel like I want any of it. I only really miss talking to one person.

Your hair is a mess.

I know, I need to cut it badly. I keep saying I will but I like to bleach it when I cut it and I've not ordered my bleaching kit yet.

Life is f*****g s**t mate.

I don't know what else to say.

You know the script.

You may take a break but you can't give up. The Asperger's community needs you. You need to teach the world about Asperger's so we can be better understood and accepted.

I know how you feel because sometimes I just want to give up, too. It's very tiring, going around in circles and accomplishing nothing. I really feel I just don't fit in anywhere. Always the outsider. At least we have each other on WP to shed light on that subject, eh?

It's a matter of finding the right person to relate to. Good luck.

I appear to have severe psychological side effects relating to the prednisone I am taking for crohn's disease. 40mg of the stuff isn't exactly a low dose. It does make me feel fantastic at first, but I am crashing off of it every day. Makes my stimulant seem pretty mild. I probably need to think about spreading the dosage over the day in stead of all in the morning. I also filled an abilify increase, I was waiting because I had plenty of the lowest dose, but I guess its covered under insurance and it is necessary. :wall:

Feeling perfectly normal this morning. Might end up crashing yet again to some very uncomfortable, unpleasant, and not very nice thinking though. I thought I could at least control them, but I guess not. I start losing my sense of identity after a while. Bipolar depression is no fun at all. Especially when dealing with various medications.

I would say I would try and keep my hopes up, but I can't really make promises like that. I have stability issues. Hoping I can change things for the better though. I am one of the few cases where proper medication is a requirement.
