Umm... Hi everyone. The name is Chris but you can call me Crosser (online name that I like to use). Well I'm new to this forum and all forums related to Aspergers. I have been told for past few years now that I had Aspergers but never really accepted it to be true. Mostly because I was in a speacal class room in my high school that was for kids with ADD and Aspergers. While in the class room the kids there were VERY VERY different from me. I didn't really see how I was like them at all and so I got my parents to get me out of that class room. While I was in that class room and in high school I had a job at a near by movie theater as an usher and also gave out promotional cards of the theater. But just before I graduated from high school I was fired from my job (for a reason that was really really really really stupid and mostly not my fault) and was unemployeed for a few months. When I finally got another job it was there I started to realize that I had Aspergers. Customers were complaining about things that I was saying while I had no idea that it wasn't appropriate to say. After only being there for a few months that I finally had to quit. I knew that eventually that they were gonna fire me cause of all the complaints that I was getting. So all I do now is just stay at home and play on my XBox, PS2, or play Final Fantasy XI and stay up till like 2am before going up to bed. But I want to make a change and yet I don't. I enjoy it and yet I hate it. So now here I am typing on in a forum I bearly know of and hoping for a reply. Right now I am at a point where I don't see what I should do for a living or why I should care because I know I'll just get hurt from being around other people. I know I have a lot to be thankful for and I have a lot of gifts but right now well I don't what I can do or how it will let me be remembered by others. It's just so upsetting. I know I have a lot of oppertunities to do great things but I just don't know what they are or where to find them. Well I geuss I'll just hope for a reply now. [e-mail address removed by ADMIN]
