I am losing my head, autism/aspergers is getting to me....

I have stopped talking in general,

I am thoughtless,

the only thoughts i have are thinking about how i have a blank head and no social skills and how much my life sucks.

IM 24 now....I look back at high school and my life and realize how i have wasted it all not knowing I had these disorders and now Im working a stressful fastfood job and i have the village idiot where everyone makes fun of me for being stupid...

Ive tried therapy, meds, quit them, they dont work.....

Hmm.

I can really relate to you. I THINK MAYBE, but I don't know.

And I could be NT, for all I know, but I think I know how you're feeling, I posted this awhile ago http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt155171.html

And IDK if it's exactly what you mean, but a lot of people here related to it. I was really glad because I didn't know WTF to do.

I wasn't depressed at all, not really *thoughtless*, but kind of. Just like...empty, because I was FULL of information. But it had nothing to do with *anyone*. Nothing in my head was about people, or was related to anything else in my HEAD.. Just space...I couldn't relate to *anyone*. Couldn't really have conversations.

I wouldn't expect many people to understand, but, for what it's worth, it's probably not permanent. I'm able to talk with/understand people much more easily now. I guess it was burnout.

Sounds like you need to find a few good friends that don't care that you're the way you are. Took me into my late 30's but it did happen eventually.

That is called depression NOT aspergers. Get help for it. If one type of therapy did not work, try another. The sooner the better.
