Did anyone on here get referred to as special needs by adults and retarded by peers? If so, how did that make you feel? I got called the r word on multiple occasions. Those kids were dicks.
I just had a long phone call with my mom about how there is absolutley no excuse for me not to be working, even though I can't hold down a job for longer than 6 months. I even explained this to her but she was still positive that there was "nothing wrong with me". Well there is, and thats recovering depression, anxiety and level 2 autism. This lecture was really annoying and it didn't help me at all. She burnt me out with that phone call, man I just wish she talked less about doing something/getting a job and more about helping me find resources to manage my symptoms. She knows I'm on disability payments and she genuinley thinks that money should be earned, not given. Alluding to the fact I should have to work in order to get money.
