Has someone upset you on this forum ?


Yes more than one person and more than once, I get kind of a double messege here.......I guess a lot of the time people are still rather helpful or at least civil and I get the messege I am not a terrible person and I'm not a waste and deserve to feel better about myself. But I have had people attacking me for having ongoing problems, being too depressed and essentially things I cannot very well change right now, posters who had no issue with me now do and well I feel kind of like an outcast here because of it.

But that is all the detail I am going into because I am sure the whole forum does not want to hear me complain about it yet a again, just figured it was relevant to say what was said in the OP applies to this group to me.


I'm really sorry that you feel that way, you're not on your own.

I've always had problems with social issues & at 45 years of age I'm sadenned i have just been diagnosed with aspergers.

In a way I'm relieved to have found out, but I wished I could've found out sooner as I know I could've come to terms with it knowing its a condition that other people have, I could've claimed for unfair & constructive dismisal on many occasions during my miserable employment history, at the time I thought it was "just me, everyone else is "normal" exept me" . I thought that eversince I was 15, trying to find jobs where I could work on my own was'nt easy, & the gov'ment forrces you to take any employment or loose benifit.

I cannot help but have severe hatred towards the main contributors of my bullying & taking the piss out of me throughout my employment history.

I've only recently joined this forum, & I can take some positives from being here, I dare say there will be people who dislike me on here to, but I think can accept that - .

I feel you man, I'm actually relieved to find out about my diagnosis as well despite not being told I had it until 5 years after I had been diagnosed. I hated bullying myself when I was in elementary school (I didn't know about my diagnosis then), but I treated it as more of a learning experience later on to help me work through social issues and if the situation comes up later on. I still think the people who bullied me are jerks and other people that went to school with them would more then likely agree, but it's not something I dwell on now.
