I am an adult male with autism and I’ve been working in banking for the past few years and I hate every moment of it and wake up every morning sick to my stomach. I need to get out of customer service and banking in general but any change at all eats me up inside.
I don’t want to be a bum and my dad isn’t as understanding as I’m high functioning and I’ve masked my hate for the workforce pretty well. I haven’t left my parents house at 23 years of age, and although I have 60k saved up he wants me to be working which is totally fair.
After working a nightmare banking job I tried another bank and after 2 weeks this one is worse and I left my keys in the nightdrop and didn’t say a word. Now I’m just completely lost and it’s hard to not wish I was dead.
I wish they told you how awful adulthood was as a kid… is there any chance at anything getting better
