What are the type of things that make you lose your temper?
feeling short and not being the centre of attention
It's not possible to always be the centre of attention so it's better to get used to not being centre of attention as being the norm and you can be pleasantly surprised if you ever are centre of attention.
Learn to lower your expectations and you will be more content.

Wait, you're an aspie that gets pissed when you're not the center of attention, or did I read that wrong?
Sounds like your parents are trying to kick you out, ie. having the place to themselves. My mother did the same to my sister and I, after lying to us and saying "as long as you're in school, you can live here." Well, at age 20 I was still in school (working part time to pay for 100% of my tuition up front - 12-15 credits/semester) and my sister was too, at age 19, and she decided to "change her mind" and kick us both out by selling her house and buying a 1 BR condo. It was a very distressing event, as I did fine for the first year or so, but then the economy faltered and I've been struggling for the most part over the last four years, going back and forth between roommates and small studios while I try to find whatever work I can to try to pay the bills with. I don't have the social skills to really network/get ahead in life, and my mom has the same approach she had since I was a small kid, "he has a high IQ, so he is perfectly fine without any parental education/in all life situations which I have not prepared him for."

Yes, because I always want to be out of the attention of others.
