I understand how your husband feels. My hobbies are home based. I'm autistic and have dyspraxia so that causes anxiety. I've never really thought of anything new to try.

Has anyone got any tips?

So much has changed, so many mistakes.

I'm giving it everything I've got. Everything just seems so bleak right now.

Yes I'm volunteering and attending a recovery clinic.

Spend far too much time on my own, hate it.

Thank you to both Lord Flavius (love the Blackadder homage) and to Rose White. I wasn't going to respond to this thread because Im still seriously pissed off at Parrottthepolly but what has been said is correct. Having said that though this nasty little incident has made me realise that I'd be...

Yes, yes I like that.

You’re not lost. I’ve had a disagreement with a user here but I do agree with the notion that online is wrong.

I’m sorry if that’s how it came out but that’s not what I meant at all.😢

For society nor to think I’m a fool

Update, yes I have dyspraxia. Apologies for the delay in getting in touch. Now I know what is going on the the question is how can I rebuild?

Calling in sick isn't an issue as it's a voluntary role. I'm not being a negative Norman but the belt and braces approach stems from my issues growing up. My tutors told me they had no problems with my workrate and I knew the facts but could never get them out fully formed which led to me being...

I'll give you an example. My "job" involves helping people via email and I go for a "belt and braces" approach by giving them reams of information where the correct amount of info is a lot shorter. I know this and yet the autistic side of my brain thinks "explain clearly, don't leave anything out"

Its a nice idea but my nerves are frayed a lot of the time.

Ok I feel an explanation is needed. I’m 47 and when I was 16 I was told I had an incurable disease so I decided that I would not be a burden ( truth is I was hared by many people) so i became a recluse. In 2021 I was told that I never had the condition. Also in that horrible year there was a...

I'm so wound up all the time. I have a control freak mentality and its not a nice aspect but I've lost control over so much of my life especially in the last 4-5 years that I've found myself micromanaging things to a really unhealthy extent. Its exhausting and as I'm writing this I feel so...

I was going to open a new thread but this one might be ideal for me. I can't help but interfere in other people's lives. I know this and there are two reasons. One is horrific loneliness and the other is paranoia. I've been lied to, betrayed, backstabbed, cheated and ignored all my damn life...

Thank you. I've just got a dyslexia diagnosis as well. Can I keep in touch with the forum?

And it’s a bloody nightmare.

That’s it. I don’t think anyone is actually against me. No one has walked up to me and said that I’m a piece of s@#t or anything. Its the anxiety and Asperger’s working together to screw my thinking patterns up.

I've had so many people in the past saying I'm making excuses for not doing things or not doing them right. My hometown is a bad place filled with bad people and bad memories and its left me with the impression that 99.9% people are against me. 😰 (I thought my family was on my side) 🤬 I've...

I’m not making excuses but I do get paranoid with people. There are so many who are effortlessly charming and have so many friends yet all I get are sub human scumbags.

I do rehearse and sometimes it flows but other times it’s like I think the person I’m talking to is thinking “this man is a fool”

I have short sharp blasts of convo which helps but most of the time it’s not easy. I’m a volunteer so I’m not in all the time.
