Hi all. Here is my problem if you will. A week ago when I had my parents over I had a emotional breakdown. I am an adult and I respect my parents. They are helping me budget and save money. We got into it cause I was spending more than I should be. It was mostly me just crying and yelling and blaming myself. I know they are just trying to help me and want me to be successful.
On last sunday Halloween I had a pretty much total emotional breakdown. My girlfriend lives in Kentucky and has said I can call her. I have called her and we have talked. I called her several times that weekend and she never called me back. I was hanging out with friends that day. When I talked to her that night on here. She told me her reasons why and I trust and believe her. But throughout this whole time sunday night I am crying and my hands and arms are shaking and I feel terrible.
I am not normally this emotional ever. Could this be something to do with having Aspergers or something else. I don't like falling apart like this.

Well, since I'm not a professional, I don't feel qualified to tell you what is or is not Aspergers related. However, I do know that it can contribute to anxiety and moodiness for a variety of reasons. Also, I do think you might be being a little hard on yourself. Saving money and budgeting is not easy for any of us. I myself have tried and failed numerous times!

Have you considered talking to your parents about how emotional you are feeling right now? I imagine they know you better than anyone else, and might have some good advice. If anything, being your parents, they would want to help you out.

**Also, I have to mention the following. If you feel like hurting yourself or someone else... or if you feel like this situation is getting out of control... then you need to seek professional help from a psychologist.**

Take care of yourself, and I hope this helps out. It sounds like you have people that care about you and wouldn't want you to be going through this alone. heart
