Post something that made you UNHAPPY today.

My (ex)girlfriend is seeing someone else after we both agreed to be with each other last weekend. I don't honestly know how I should be feeling right now. She was all I had.

Thinking too much.

Couldn't get much sleep last night, ironic considering what my last post on here was...

Dusknoir trolled me.

Nothing.

That no matter how many resumes I've sent out nothing has seemingly happened and deep down inside I feel that I've simply been written off as a potential employee at an company big or small. As well, not having a stellar work history or extensive mastery of skill sets has not helped either.

I woke up late.

I woke up early.

I'm having some musings about the varying coping abilities on the spectrum. I have never approved of the way some people doubt the diagnosis of others, but I'm starting to have my own doubts about others too. Not in a real way -- I believe their diagnoses.

But it's just that some people seem to have just "licked" everything. Some people seem to have ZERO challenges anymore. Some people seem to HAVE NO "impairments."

Some people are so blissfully accomplished in having mastered everything that they now look down from lofty heights and assume that anyone posting that there is anything at all they struggle with because of the spectrum just must not be trying hard enough.

When they have no actual clue how valiantly hard some of those people probably do try, yet the reason they're POSTING about it is because they're not freaking perfect.

I am really sick of these astonishingly perfect people who think only in black and white about the ones who still are honest enough to describe struggles, believing that these people don't have any triumphs or skills at all, or that they haven't "learned" anything.

While conveniently overlooking other posts where it's clear that in some other matter that person has learned a very great deal and continues to do so. But no, they selectively focus on the thread where the person says there's an area of challenge. Screw the other thread where the person demonstrates effort and overcoming.

I@m sorry but I just really get angry at the sanctimonious BS on here sometimes. There are such well-functioning people here who think the rest of us aren't even trying, and that's BS. Get off your damn high horse, you know NOTHING about me.

I've read how the job market has many difficulties for autistic employee candidates and often such leads to be either unemployed or underemployed.

Tried to articulate some of my (non)feelings about relationships to my mum. Unbeknownst to her I'm ending things with a guy because I don't feel anything towards him (or anybody). I never talk about these things, but I kind of went for general advice. She said 'so how do you feel about relationships?'. I said 'I don't see the point. That part of me just isn't there'. She said 'well, in time I'm sure it will be'

No it won't be mum, it really won't be good talk /sarcasm. I know I can't expect to be as private as I am and still expect effective support, but you'd think at least she'd know me well enough to know saying something like that is hurtful, not helpful

Sincerely speaking, if you don't feel your part of something in all honesty you need not confine yourself as such to said scenario.

I think my friend might be mad at me. I am waiting for a phone call from him but he hasn't called.

The band at church were going to sing one of my favourite songs, but then they didn't.
