What Do I actually do?

[blissful grotto]

Basically, I am an autistic teen with no friends. I have Asperger’s and like many others with autism I get bullied and mocked for my traits. My main question is how am I supposed to make friends when everyone I see day to day don’t like me and won’t change?

hai u just haven’t found your community and that’s okay! it takes time trust me, i still haven’t and im about to enter uni (sadly). my advice to you is to find events related to your interests, career, or even social events for autistic people! it makes it so much easier to socialize when u both have something in common to chat about. most people can be mean and judgmental, i understand, but don’t you give up bcs you will definitely find your people :)

I have aspergers too. I’m guessing you are in highschool and that’s a place where this bullying is happening. Be mentally and emotionally strong, there’ll always be people who will pick on you and try to upset you in life. Don’t give them the reaction they want, stay calm and cool when disrespected or hurt, you’ll feel a lot more in control and might impress yourself. It’s ok to feel angry, misunderstood, and alone too when you are being mistreated. Be a friend to yourself, and don’t let your surroundings shape you. Look past all the crap people throw at you.

It’s even harder, to thrive in a place where people are trying to constantly put you down. Make sure that your thoughts are positive, and self motivating, build a safe place in your mind.

I get the impression, the people around you have been bullying you to the point where they’ve turned others against you in a way. Don’t accept anything and walk away. Defend yourself if you must with sharp, dismissive remarks. Practice talking in the mirror to strengthen your voice because it’s important too. No matter what happens just don’t go against yourself. It’s also powerful, to tell people how they’re making you feel out loud, express boundaries. “I don’t like how you’re treating me right now.” Etc. “By doing this, you made me feel upset and it was rude of you.”
Socially, people will start to recognize others flaws of being mean and cruel. Your feelings will expose others when verbalized.
