I'm a 25 year old unemployed male. I still live with my parents. I've never even so much as kissed a girl. I have no friends. I don't know how to socialize with anyone. What to say, how to act, how to move, what I'm supposed to feel even, any of it. I've developed agoraphobia. I JUST got diagnosed with high functioning autism. The neuropsychologist told me I have it worse than the typical Aspergers case. The only good news is they made me take an IQ test as part of the diagnoses and I found out I have a high IQ in the 99th percentile. Anyway, that's why I'm here. I don't know WTF to do. I'm pretty much trapped in life. Anyone go through the same things? How do you deal with it? I feel like I'm just going to be stuck in my parents house until they die, then I'll be homeless and die in the streets. This world is so unforgiving of anyone who isn't "normal". What do I do?

Just a note to say I sent you a personal message. When I first joined I didn't know PMing existed on these forums, so I just thought I'd alert you to the PM in case you wouldn't think to look there.
