Under 18 and live with parents. I can't wait to live on my own, as soon as I have enough money I'm out of there. But I don't know how long it's going to take and I'm s**t scared of being independent and paying my own bills and getting up every morning to go to work.

Why does it seem both scary and comforting that my vote was for the option that currently has the most votes? I'm 20 and live with my parents.

I'm 26 and I still live with my parents. I have no job right now so there is no way I can afford to live on my own. When my girlfriend does not have her kids I stay with her which is about half of the times. I hate living with my parents. Its embarrassing telling someone you live with your parents still.

20 and I live in an assisted living program (my own apartment with an ASD roommate) I don't think I need-- its just that my parents are paying my bills so I don't have much choice. They think that I'm completely incapable which is somewhat depressing.

Lived at home until aged 21, then lived in 10 different flatshares over the next 10 years in a different city [and hated always having to move].
I then lived back at home for a very short time before getting my own place aged 31 [13 years in August on my own and surviving well]

CosmicRuss, I found MYSELF, age 46. Fantastic feeling isn't it to now know why things had been so messed up? I never liked myself until I learned it was Asperger's. I so wish it could have been many years earlier, but some people never find themselves at all, so I am very fortunate.

On topic: My life milestones were all delayed and I lived with my parents on and off until I was almost 21 and after that I lived either with someone else or very close to family. I never lived completely independently until just this year. I have a whole house to myself; my closest friend lives thirty miles away and I have no family in the whole state!

Good to hear your story dyingofpoetry.
Yes, it is a fantastic feeling and we can stop beating ourselves up hopefully. I am grateful I managed to watch some great documentaries concerning ASD which really opened my eyes and gave me comfort.

I won't be moving out of my mom's house until I leave high school, which won't be until 2012.

21 and live at home. I tried to live in the dorms but I couldn't handle it. I hate living with my mom but I need a lot of support to live independently so going to try again in a year when I graduate and move in with my boyfriend who understands my needs.
