Oh I totally have no idea what I want in life... I am a 35 year old teenager who just found out two months ago that his wife had been hinting that she wanted a baby for years and feels trapped in a very good job.
I was diagnosed with depression in high school after someone told the school counselor that I was suicidal. Saw a therapist for 2 years and then went untreated for 15. I totally understand not being able to tell your doctor.
Yes I was diagnosed with Aspergers, almost by the psychologist who did my testing and then by a psychiatrist he referred me to.

Have $500 to my name which can't buy any kind of housing. I've been working the same part time job for 2 1/2 years. Single/no kids (both of which i'm very content with). Started seeing a therapist 6 months before I turned 26, now 6 months after i'm 26 I feel like i'm progressing 'emotionally' which now allows me to see that I suck in every other way except that.

In other words you got a bachelors degree, are trying to get into grad school, working and getting help with your problems? Doesn't sound like you suck to me.
