If you don't get good treatment for whatever is causing you to behave this way, that is where you will end up too & people just don't have the patience to deal with people like that unless they are trained to deal with developmentally handicapped people & understand what their accurately diagnosed condition really is. It is NOT something treated or dealt with in the workplace. This is totally an issue that needs to be dealt with by professionals in the mental health profession.
BTW, It totally depends on where a person lies on the spectrum.

Exactly. Aspergers lead normal lives. Autism don’t.
Neurotypicals do unless they have mental illness. I moved completely off the spectrum at the end of high school only to be hit with borderline (which I’m sure I had some features of as well throughout my childhood).
I been treated as ASD throughout my 20s until I saw a specialist who worked extensively with personality disorders. Every other therapist I saw attributed my craziness to ASD. But I’m too socially savvy to be aspergers.
What else can I do while I wait for my appointment?
