Do any of you feel your condition holds you back?

Post Reply New Topic

I have a triple triple diagnosis of autism, ADHD and borderline personality disorder, I'm disabled and mentally ill at the same time so I don't really fit in any paid job. And if I wasn't so ill, I would do more volunteer work that would help the lgbtq community and travel by myself. How do any of you try to do what makes you happy if your condition prevents you?

I don't know what mine is except it's called "executive dysfunction".
Why not autism? Because it wasn't there in the first place like autism did.

And there are actually states that I do not have executive dysfunction.
So whatever it was holding me back, it could've been treatable. Curable. Preventable.


But sure.
Autism is the reason why I cannot play those stupid mind games. A very dark and malevolent part of me is very pissed off about that.

Yes. It takes me longer to learn and a lot of employers don't like that.

Yeah. I used to get down about people telling me if there's anyone that could get so and so job, do well, blah blah, it's me.

Looking the part does not always mean one can play the part.

Edit: sorry, I didn't answer the question in the OP. I work part-time now....this gives me time and the money to do some of the things that make me happy.

I also have bowel issues.

Yes. (Not sure if I am on the spectrum).
