• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hi Zhang,
Welcome to CF. I pray this site helps you.
Do you have access to a Bible?

Salvation as its taught in the Bible isn't about us or government saving ourselves but its about God Himself saying us. God does this thru Jesus. I suggest you start talking to God like you would talk to anyone else. Ask God to save you because of what Jesus has done for us. God is love and if we ask God will fill us with love for Him and others.

Communication for us with AS or autism in general is quite difficult. I think there are a few things we can learn and do to help. The 1st thing I'd recommend is when when you know you aren't able to express yourself is to tell people, "I can't put my feelings into words right now." I also tell people that I'm going to have to think about this situation for a while to figure out what words will express what I think about it. Then learn if you need to write it down or if you can express it after you have thought about it for a while. I can talk about it once I've thought about it. But some need to write it down. Then ask a person if you can share what you think about it.

That's the broad outline of how I have learned to talk with people.
