ASD -> Curing Social Problems.

Hello,

Its said that with ASD, one can become obsessive, a lot of great interest,etc in the subject.

But what about if we become socially acceptable. We do this by not by studying normal peoples body language,etc.

But we do this by going out at least every day. Scared of big/open places with loads of people (same here)... but if you keep going to that place you will become use to it. then its no problem....

practice makes perfect.


so what about putting our selves back to society again...


whats your opinion?
 
As far as employment goes, it's certainly worth it to learn how to get along on a superficial level. You'll make less enemies and connect more with potential employers, who'll be more inclined to support you. I'm doubtful about those who just don't seem cut out for a social life developing a social life, though. I've been trying for many years, and while I can lead a group in lab work I can't make any friends.

Some of us are simply shut out of the normal world of social connections, and it's easy to get drained and depressed when too much energy goes to trying to change that instead of building up a rich internal world and home life. One of those things is a gamble, and one of them is always there to help you make it through.
