I'm autistic and I'm tired of my husband and everyone else expecting me to just act normal. I was diagnosed at 28, an age where my area just literally refuses to help you. No therapist here qualified to work with autistic people will work with anyone over the age of 18. I keep being told I just need to get over my meltdowns or get a grip on things. All that happens then is I drink so that I don't kill myself because if I so much as think about that I get a guilt trip. I have no life, I avoid leaving the house. I love nothing, I want out.

No but I'm no longer able to live on my own. I don't drive or interact with people in any way anymore
