Have a good day. I don't think I can achieve anything here over text.

Therapy and psychology is valid. There are plenty of providers that operate with a sliding scale and if you income is what I assume you will be free/low cost case.

You don't need to "cure" your autism. You just need to identify the parts of you that are more abrasive and manage them.

I hope you find what you are looking for, or at the least find someone to help you work on yourself.

And you didn't answer my question : who do I talk to and what do I say to them? Every time. You people are so predictable.

Literally anyone you see regularly see. Make light eye contact and smile. After a couple times seeing the same person just try something simple:

" I see you here often. Do you know ______?"

A: Yes/ "Ya they have been coming here since _____. I started back in ________."

B: No/ "Oh, well I'm ________ it's a pleasure to meet you."

You are planting seeds of discourse. It makes you more approachable.

I have engaged you here in good faith so I'd appreciate the same in return.
