Seriously though. What place do we have in this world.

What are we allowed to do. What can we do. Why does nobody tell us. Why are we blamed for things we weren’t aware of. Does society just want us to be gone? What can we do at this point? Are we only okay if we’re somehow important or skilled? Not everyone with autism has a special interest. Some people are just genuinely struggling.

I had dreams as a kid. I had goals and aspirations and yet Im stuck trying to survive alone trying to figure out everything with nobody telling me shit. Being neglected and being autistic does not mix well together, AT ALL.

My point is that Im frustrated and fucking lost at this point in time, what do typical people expect of us, do they think we’re just not trying hard enough, how are we able to stay afloat if we are just weird automatically or sketchy, suspicious, rude, blunt, tone deaf, awkward, etc??? Am i just meant to not be here? I am an human too?? I deserve to talk to people and socialize without being excluded.

How do we just get rid of the social stigma or expectations?? I AM trying hard enough. I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!
