I've autism. I have a job I'm struggling to keep . I seem to always supporting family members only to be kicked in the teeth again an again .. my autism sometimes means I'm direct and blunt but I don't mean to be. I have body spasms ticks occasionally which is a joke for others" i cant help it regardless of what people think".. I annoy the family in fact i embarress them . My physical self hurts especially my legs , head and feet daily. My meds not working headaches are more frequent.. I'm grumpy externally sad internally I'm alone yet have a partner whom my issues are becoming a burden on others . I find society hateful .. community uncaring . How do people put up with society .. and being imprisoned by one's own thoughts and physical limitations. I have claustrophobic issues to so have anxiety in travelling to new places ..

    Hi @Kevin23

    I found Runway Visitor Park which is next to Manchester airport which is advertised as offering great views of planes taking off and landing as well lots of old retired planes you can look at. Have you been there before?

    Sorry to hear you're having more frequent headaches, it's not nice to be in pain. Have you told your GP about this or asked for a medication review?

    I'm sorry you're struggling so much @Kevin23. Have you spoken to your family about how you feel? I would suggest speaking to your Dr to see how they can help you.

    I also love planes and would highly recommend the Runway Visitor Park that @Mary_Scope suggested. I was able to sit on a concorde and learn some facts about it. We also got to go inside the Nimrod which was really interesting. I asked lots of questions about what each button did but the guide didn't know which was a shame. I don't think he'd been asked so many questions before 😂 Do you think you'd be able to go?
