There are people who accuse me of being a parasite because I don't work. I'm also considered unemployable. But they say things like I can write and type online, so I can work too. Is that really true? I don't have any training or anything, so the only option left for me would be unskilled…
Why did I never have a dream job, never have specific goals in life? Many people know from an early age what they absolutely want to be, what they want to do. But that was never the case for me, I've never had a dream job or something specific that I really wanted to do….
I know I will never be able to work, never be able to live independently, because of various illnesses. I know I'll never achieve anything special. And I used to think that was awful? But now, well, what should I think of it? It is what it is, I don't think it's good or bad,…

Is there support for autistic people in the job market? For people who have long since left the primary labor market? To find your way back in and still get an education, despite autism? Or is there no such support and I have to do it myself somehow? I don't know if I can do…
Should I really give up everything just because I am currently in assisted living and unable to work? Should I really resign myself, should I listen to the inner voices that tell me I'll never make it out? Should I listen to the inner voices that tell me I can't do anything and am nothing?…

Without training, you have no future at all, in life or in college. So what do you do if you're 24, have no training yet, are autistic, and are considered unemployable? Then there's no hope for the future, right? Then you can only vegetate in poverty, right? Do I just have to finally accept it?
