I have big doubts on 2 topics: getting a job and making new friends. I think the chance if those things are happing are next to zero. Someone said today I will probably make new friends. But I think it's the opposite: I probably won't make new friends, and I don't like it when people say things that are probably not going to happen. And as for me getting a job, I haven't in my nearly 40 years had a independent paid job and I just don't see that changing now. Anyone here have big doubts as well?

I think a lot of autistic people feel frozen out of workplace & society in general. You are not alone.
