I AM LONELY (Autism Loneliness)

Aspergers and Autism Podcast [The Aspie World]

I have been feeling super lonely lately and, I’m not sure if I’m expecting too much from people? I had this realisation that I was very lonely. Now I know autism comes with loneliness as a feeling, due to many factors. But autism loneliness has been intensified by the covid pandemic and the lock down rules. I was talking with my girlfriend about this, and I feel i have friends that I can talk to over what’s app and FaceTime / zoom but, I don’t have a closeness with them to discuss things of personal matters. Then we realised I don’t have a friend In my life that I can talk to about things like this. But is it because I am asking too much of a friend? Or is it that I am not opening up enough to friends, and that in fact my friends would listen. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theaspieworld/support
