[quote=Anonymous]You need therapy. Also consider whether you may be on the high-functioning end of the autism spectrum: it takes intensity and focus to claw your way out of desperate conditions, and autistic people can have such a focus. My autistic husband was a war refugee as a child, experienced hunger and deprivation, and clawed his way out of poverty and into medical school. His detachment from emotional pain, and relative ignorance of social nuance, helped him through it. Autism always comes with obsessive thoughts and anxiety. There are many ways to manage anxiety, OP: medication, meditation, exercise, walks in the fresh air, massage, deep breathing, careful planning of your life and routines, therapy, self-talk, etc. I have the Calm app on my phone and I turn to it when things go crazy.
