    Just landed my first job

    Congratulations on getting your first job! My first job was working at a Goodwill, which I got through a Vocational Rehab program.

    What helps YOU?

One thing I think has helped me is trying to socialize even if it feels hard or impossible. Find a group of people online...

    Student research

    Great survey, I wish that I had researched Asperger's Syndrome back in high school. I feel like it would give me a better understanding of how I cope with living alone. I recently graduated college and I'm currently seeking full-time employment, but it's a competitive job market and it has been...

    Hello comrades

    Hey guys, I'm a 22 year old aspie from the United States. I've known about my diagnosis since freshman year of high school. I just graduated from college this May with a degree in Environmental Science so I'm in a transitional phase of my life right now. Some things I like doing include cycling...
