GOD sometimes having aspergers can be such a pain in the ass.

here is the problems that i am finding at the moment

Whenever i try and make small talk or communicate i always get that nagging feeling head telling me "Communication will never come naturally to you"
I get stressed thinking this which just impairs my ability to be social even more
every social sitatuaion with my friends is a painful experience because cause of that voice in my head
My friends see less of me these days becuase of my communication problems

What am i suppoused to do about this cause i already suffer from obssesive compulisive thinking? sometimes i think i would just be better off forgetting about 'aspergers syndrome'

Your making yourself crazy, your communication skills haven't decreased since diagnosis. So seeing your friends is not about your skills, but about you percieving yourself as not worthy.

To err is human, just do your best and do better next time.

i am not diagnosed with AS but i am suspected to have it

Still I think you are putting yourself down, diagnosis or not.

Its still hard thinking in social situations that your brain is defective.

It depends how you look at it, if you see it as defective then it will be defective.
So labeling it as different, then it's different.
Just keep it positive, it's more healthy for yourself.

I am in the same position as you are. I just never have the right words when I am around people or I find that I repeat myself. The older I get, the harder it seems to be to make friends. I pretty much avoid parties altogether. I wish I could tell you how to be more social but I cant. My suggestion is see a doctor about getting on some medications and take life one day at a time and try to get by the best way you can. It will never be easy and never come naturally but that comes with the territory with aspergers. Try not to be bitter about it. I am struggling with that right now because I know I would be so much happier and successful in life if not for this disease. Believe me, I know it's rough but what choice do you have.

oh come on ocean club u don't have to be so grim. there are some aspects of having AS that i like.
