Autistic burnout

Sick, tired and bored of everyone and everything, especially myself.

Exhausted all the time
Dissociated
Financially broke
No car
Surreal
Have to be close to a Litterbox at all times
Trouble sleeping
Physically weak
Zero "friends"
Almost getting hit by cars at work.

Not good at anything.

Afraid of everyone and everything.

About six weeks ago, I begged my coworker, tattle tale tom, "please don't hurt me".

Constantly afraid my micromanaging boss will have the nerve to make my worthless corpse redundant

Got no future

42 been on the decline for a long time

Not good at anything

Hobbies

Better job

"Friends"

Health

Working on how much you allow fear and anxiety control your life might be a good place to start, because that issue seems like the keystone that ties together many of the other issues as well as something that undermines a lot of your efforts to make things better for yourself.

They say a change is as good as a rest

Why would Tattle tale Tom hurt you by the way

I rebuilt my life after having a stroke in my mid 30s. It is much better now.

This is a good notion. You describe your life much like a more outdoor version of Dilbert.

Sometimes it's hard to tell if you are poking fun at your circumstances or figuratively beating yourself about the head and shoulders with your narratives. If you have a solid, accurate self-image that reflects your strengths and not just your weaknesses, that might give you something to work with. Then you could begin on some sort of plan.
