    I am getting referred to an endocrinologist.

    "No danger", as I've heard northerners in the UK say. I'm sure they'll help get you answers, and on the road to feeling better.

    Working only part time has been a deal breaker for getting a girlfriend for me.

    I also had two deconstructive outlooks instilled in my mind: “You have plenty of time to think about it!” and “God has a plan for you!”

    I wonder whether you could work with animals yet. Even getting some kind of job at an animal rescue or something. You don't have to be a huge mathematician; lot of that's basic math & guess what it's 2022 and you could get away with a pocket calculator.

    As for those other beliefs, I am still dealing with those. "Plenty of time" is dangerous in excess. The "God's plan" stuff can be super toxic (And I say that from a diehard Christian perspective. Seriously--the amount of anxiety that induces is unfair to anyone)
    Markness
    I can’t stop thinking about things others said that hurt my feelings.

    Another way of saying that is "I keep telling myself those stories that continue my sad angry feelings about being treated unfairly...etc"

    I had to close my eyes for the blood tests this time.

    The place I go to, the woman and I generally talk about yaks, the past couple years, since she is the mother of the guy who has the yak farm on the road where I live.

    Was I born in the wrong place?

    I actually have a car. What’s holding me back is my mother’s web, low finances, anxiety issues, lack of social connections, and severe depression. I can’t simply just get in my car and drive away.

    I saw that bit about your mom's overprotectiveness of you. Not to be rude but I think your mom has mental problems.

    She’s in denial about them.

    I need to sleep but I keep staying up.

    Please, Markness, don't ruminate and go to sleep earlier next time. Staying up late can seriously bring out negative emotions. Btw, seeing how you changed your profile pic from Nanachi to Reg, it looks like you are going for a more proactive stance?

    @Homulilly It’s more like I wish I could be a survivor instead of a victim. But my attempts to change my life around have met only failures so far.

    @Markness.....The last two words of that comment are good. 'so far'....That's like saying 'not yet'...which leaves hope for the future.
    Markness
    I wish I could talk to my future self.

    I wish you could talk to your present self without telling him those non-rational stories.

    I honestly sometimes want a cure for autism. I feel like it’s the only thing that can help me.

    It's probably not the only thing.

    I feel like the autism community hates men who are single.
    Gerontius
    Gerontius
    The male side of the autism community is mostly made of single men--Course if you fall in love, it's not about the community, it is about you & the girl. The "community" you've been looking for.

    It rained today. But I don't feel like the clouds hate me.

    Should I take up smoking and drinking to finally fit in?

    Are you fascinated by people who'd require smoking and drinking as elements necessary for hanging out together?
    Markness
    Markness
    I wouldn’t say fascinating. I am just baffled at how I was constantly told not to do those things by authority figures and family members yet I was bullied and ostracized.

    I don't see any connection between those situations.
    Markness
    Should I keep posting or just disappear?

    @crewlucaa_ if you mean me, I have to say: thank you very much! I rarely read other threads and just say my own opinion and which comes to my mind. but I am glad that you like it : ) you are very friendly too and I am sure that you are a really good person, even without really knowing you.

    Yes, I meant you, @Shaddock :) And thank you for your kindness!

    My parents being doctors made me get bullied, even to this day.

    How does that work?

    If someone bullies you because your parents are doctors, they are idiots. Don't listen to idiots, don't let it get to you so much. People say crazy things all the time, the trick is to not listen to them.

    @tree I am perceived to be a “rich kid” who thinks he’s better than everyone. They’ll also make snide remarks and don’t believe me when I struggle with money.
    Markness
    I think I am going to only use PMs for the foreseeable future.
    tree

    That was a very short future. You've started two threads since you speculated that you'd be using only PMs for a while.

    I might change my mind.

    That's true. You have the ability to do that.
