you're not a lost cause...they're just quitters and give up too easily. that's all honey. you're not alone *hugs*
I did it. I just faced my biggest fear. It was absolutely surreal, my vision field was physically very narrow, like if I was watching a movie or tv screen instead of my own life, I got a bit dehydrated, like all my saliva was gone. It had a bit of doubt, buy my voice neither my body trembled, and I didn't flushed (I barely do). Of course I was nervous as hell.
But I did it, no more wandering for the rest of my life "what if" about that, it never was an "if", and it turned out that I can accept that. Is going to be awkward for awhile, but what the hell, it was worth it.

You are NOT a lost cause. Please don't listen to them. I know how that feels like, a family member throwing harsh words left and right, making us feel even more worthless than we already think we are, instead of supporting us and trying to make us feel better.

Hey, man, you are not a lost cause and you are most definitely not alone. You've got us whenever you need someone. As for your family, call them out on what they said because that was a pretty a**holish thing to say. They should be ashamed of themselves; they should support you always and never quit on you. Well, we won't quit on you; come on Jones, brush what they said aside and stand up. It's time to prove your family wrong. You have a bright future full of possibilities ahead of you and now you're going to make your family eat those words!

^ I've never even heard of that, let alone seen it anywhere. Now I'm curious, heh.

Thank you all... anyway they were not trying to be rude or hurtful, they weren't talking to me, I just heard them talking (including my sister laughing about my absolute lack of social skils).
I can't get mad at someone for the way they think, they can't choose their thoughts or feelings, they see me, they know me, they get an opinion, it's not their fault.
I know that they love me, and I love them too, but they raised me perfectly and I'm nothing but a failure and a loser compared to what I could be if I were "normal" (not normal as without SA, normal as with a normal personality towards life), I failed them. I understand that they think this way also because I have the typical "perfect" sister. I think that until I get a Ph.D. and start working at NASA they won't be pleased...

They're your family and they're supposed to support you. Laughing about your lack of social skills does not seem very supportive. It would be bad enough to do that about an acquaintance or friend, but your own brother? If that's being the "perfect" sibling, then I'm glad I'm not perfect.
And I agree with what others have said. You are definitely not a lost cause.

Today has been a mix of good and bad, so at the moment everything feels balanced. I'm hoping the rest of the evening brings only good things!
Good way to go Marie! I'm happy you feel well. Balance is the perfect state.
Hope you will find good things, I also feel balanced so +1
Also had a downset today, but luckily I got out of it happily and finding myself in a relaxed mood.. Means a ton to me, hey
I feel handicapped. My neck/whiplash situation is really pissing me off.
