I've been cutting myself and I feel like killing myself. I just can't take the parents arguing and the constant people making fun of me- it makes me feel less than human. And everythings getting to me. Why shouldn't I just run the bath and slit my wrist. That way no one would have to deal with me. I'm worthless and I don't deserve to live.

Because the world is a big place and there are many other paths you could take than the one you are currently on.
You know the great thing about AS is we're not nearly as bound by the "herd" mentality as others. Most NT's have the mentality that they are stuck with the hand they are dealt in life. They have this strange perception that they have to stay in their current line of work, or they have to stay in the town they are in...even that they have to stick to the hobbies they have and so on.
It's all a bit arbitrary to me. I had difficulty in my home situation when I was a teenager so I left it. I still lived at home but I focused my attention on other goals and activities.
How stupid I would have been if I killed myself back then because I'm so far from that place in my life now and I'm someplace much better and I'm still alive.
