i have times where i am obsessed, but i also have times where i am just very depressed and no interest can percolate the happiness that used to ensue.

i am pretty normal but i am useless in social situations, but is this just a learned habit?

have i simply gone down a path of misery so long that that's all i know and socializing just isn't part of that.

is there a light switch somewhere that i can flick on to be vibrant and social?

have i just learned helplessness? i'm getting to be an adult though theoretically I've been an adult for 5 years now.

so many opportunities i squandered, sabotaging myself..

was this all simply a reaction to people telling me i was no good, and turned out no good?

am i just stupid? these are the questions i ask myself and while i have an autism diagnosis.

i often question it... regularly, daily though i was the one who sought it out.

will i ever be able to claim a normal status? by this i mean live on my own, keep a steady job, maybe have a wife and a few kids?

these are the questions i ask myself, so my question to you out there- do you ask these questions?

tired now...going to bed..haven't posted on here in awhile...good night.

I'd say a bit of both.
