It seems like you can work. Can you get a job and make enough to support yourself?
Does your disease make you miss 10 or more days of work a month?

I can't get a job. At least not one that requires interacting with other people. Which is all a job really is. Talking to your boss, talking to coworkers, talking to whoever, etc.

I can't even go to a store and buy something for myself without having a severe anxiety attack.

It's not that I'm talking to somebody either. It's the stimulation.

All of my senses are magnified. Which is why I have a photographic memory.

Lights give me insane migraines. Every sound is louder to me than it would be to someone else. Every taste, every feeling, every emotion is enhanced beyond a point that is bearable.


By the time the guy says, "Do you want a bag?"
I can't even think of what to say because it's just painful being there.

My sister in law's son who is 18 has Aspergers Syndrome.

This sounds exactly like what you have.

He has done very well controlling his emotions in part by going on a strict gluten free/casein free diet.

Sounds like you'll be fine IMHO
