  • When I start thinking of myself as unintelligent, my actions become even more foolish, and my mental abilities decline
    I once mentioned my suspicions about autism, and was told (by two people, one a psychologist) that it’s impossible since ‘real’ autistics can’t learn. Later one of them said I don’t know how to communicate, give off a ‘strange’ vibe, and don’t love myself.

    By the way, he worked with children with severe autism, and he suggested that I probably lack communication skills, explaining it as a result of my social phobia

    Wow. Somebody pays those people for what they do? Incredible!

    It annoys me when some people reproach me for being insensitive and cold. Just leave me alone already! I feel comfortable being this way, and it’s the result of my interaction with a society that has been cruel to me. People are often devoid of empathy and understanding, and their level of emotional intelligence leaves much to be desired

    People who say that are often the most cruel and two faced people you will meet, in my experience. I am done trying to fit into their expectations.
    I need to share my struggles and honestly I feel hatred toward people. If I could I would completely isolate myself on a remote island. People frustrate me so much that since childhood I have dreamed of total isolation. I try to be caring and kind but often face neglect and rudeness. I have no desire to maintain any relationships with anyone.

    I'm not suggesting anything. Just sharing what I found about myself. That I have been through something similar. But the darkest parts of our life have to happen, before our best years arrive. How we find what we are looking for is up to all of us. So, no. I don't have answers for you and your situation. Just a different perspective to present. Whether you take it or leave it, is up to you.

    I like watching documentaries about hermits living in caves or mountains and general wilderness. It's impressive, total self reliance.

    I struggle daily with this. I stay home or cancel appointments when l need to hang by myself and listen to music, or sit in a dark room.
