Depression

Post Reply New Topic

Hello again everyone,

In recent days I have been having an unusually high number of social issues (at least in my mind...). It has been leaving me feeling very anxious and depressed, and on top of school stress it really does not feel good at all.....

Also, I've been wondering "why me?" Why did I have to get autism? Every day I see these neurotypical people socializing around me, and I get so jealous because I'm not like them, and I really wanna be. I've been having issues relating both to NT's (I made another post about that...) and also aspies (whom I don't want to relate with because I want to relate to NT's).

Why me? I tried talking to a spiritual director (I'm Catholic), but the answer I got isn't sitting right with me..

Why did it have to be me? It could have been anyone else. Why is it me? I know my autism contributes somewhat to who I am as a person, but I still hate it....I hate it so much. It's like a cage that no matter how hard I try to escape I can't...

I hate it.

Dont worry - You will get out of your cage.

You want to be more NT? Then you must use emotions more and analyse less.
