How not just give up? There is nothing left, no viable career options, hobbies are pointless because there’s just no improvement past certain point anyway, no alleviation to the fucking constant hurt that’s AuDHD. And nobody gets it, nobody.

Any insight, other than “seek help”, would be welcome right about now.

    Seek employment that fulfills the ASD needs and stability that isn’t too much on your body that it seeps out into your personal life.

    Been wondering all my life what that employment could look like. I just come up with absolutely nothing. If I lived a century or two earlier, I’d be a craftsman and perfectly happy with it. Today, there’s few such opportunities, you only become one with luck and/or wealth. There seems to only exist too monotonous or too exhausting employment and starting a business is too uncertain for a worrier.

      If you would say the sentence “There is no apprenticeship available” you’d probably get lynched by the trades people.
      They have so many problems getting new apprenticeships filled you wouldnt believe it.
      The problem: Compared to the industrial peers (e.g. IT-apprentices) you will probably probably 25-50% less net income for more work and your job has a higher bodily effect (could mean you’d need to retire earlier)
