Meditation is my remedy.

@Frizzurd I really hope you haven't mustered up the courage and are still letting the painful process of dying hold you back,.

sincerely hope that you have found people to talk to, that understand where you are at.

I have asperger sindrome and i didnt fully understand it so thanks btw r u A.S too?

[Frizzurd]

If you have Aspergers, without any benefits like a high IQ and are gay... you are pretty much screwed and everybody will see it as being your fault..that you are just a loser. So, i am still trying to muster up the courage to put a bullet through my brain.. it isn't non-existence that scares, as i am ashamed to exist, for me its the painful process of dying that is holding me back.

Watching this was emotional, nobody diagnosed me with asperger's from a young age i had to figure it out myself at 17, when i watched i ticked down everything you said mentally as something that happens to me every day, for once i feel like someone understands me

@SunOnOrangeTrees

Yeah. I'v quit going to drive- thrus. :/ unless I want my anxiety to triple of what was already an awful amount. My voice gets all high pitched

[SunOnOrangeTrees]

@Machineguncody right, it makes everyday things (speaking with people, going to shops, going to class...) seem overwhelming and insurmountable... -.-

[Machineguncody]

@SunOnOrangeTrees well sometimes it's weeks. Glad I am not the only one that does it. But, not glad you have to go through it as well. It's exhausting. :(

[SunOnOrangeTrees]

@Machineguncody just one or two days? sometimes I worry about those things for weeks :(

[Machineguncody]

@MANCKIE Yeah and then I worry for the next day or two about the person I talked to judging the way I talked, walked, or anything. It's just not fun.

@9228Thiago

im the same, what i find helps ( might help you) is i download a book or lecture (whatever you are into) and listen to it whilst in bed on headphones. eventually i drift off.

best book series i found that helped is harry potter audio books lol. i liked the stories, but they really helped me to stop thinking because i focus on the story and eventually begin to drift. try it.
