I'm very mild with Asperger's syndrome and I do feel feel like I'm missing out and thinking I'm not living life like I see other people in their twenties doing, when I see them on a nice holiday somewhere, a great day out somewhere exciting and look like they are living best days of their lives with selfies at a club or party or having a great time at a gig watching a great band. I'm 28 and feel like there is pressure on me to go out and see the world even though no one has and I feel I'm not living to expectations hardly do any of it as I have few friends since leaving school and college, when I go out its usually on my own or occasionally with family, I've been on some good holidays abroad, I don't always go somewhere exciting except occasionally with family, I hardly go to any concerts to see bands and not into clubbing. I think social media gives me that impression but I do sometimes see it if I go somewhere where there's lots of young people about like a beach etc and I'm there on my own. I feel like I struggle at times to appreciate and be happy and content with the stuff I like doing which is reading books, trying be a writer and stuff but I can't stop thinking that I should be doing those other things I mentioned as if it will be make you fulfilled that you've done those things.
