    Yes keep going on job sites and regularly go into your shopping area looking to see if there's jobs going. Around about now will be prime for entry level jobs due to uni students going back home

    Have you actually bothered to read the whole thread?! The guy shouldn't be posting here if his illness is real (although I suspect its a total wind up). This thread should have been locked ages ago. He has had plenty of advice over and over and over and still keeps repeating the same stuff while ignoring all genuine advice. Its all utterly pointless so anything silly added to it makes no difference to an already pointless thread.

    Why should i not be posting on here, i have autism i'm not a danger to people, I don't have to be locked away because i'm different. I told you that the advice has not worked

    No jobs actually want me so what else can i do. I live in a small village where the buses stop after 5pm so can't look further afield for a job. I can't cycle because the road is to dangerous, my local town is also 3 miles away so i can't walk

    So all i was asking for is new advice

    Yes, I have read the thread, I was helping until the thread was sidetracked.

    People with autism should not be posting on forums? Do you think you have a right to dictate what disabled people do?

    This thread is going to end up locked because of people like you posting idiotic memes. You're coming across as a nasty bully. I have no idea why you would post on a thread that you object so strongly to, if not to do harm?

    you can tell its a troll and the mse mods have left it open because he says he has autism,
    maybe he doses ?if so , he ask for help and when you give it, he changes subject or repeate another thing..
    is it really helpful if he does have autism to let him carry on with this thread when he dosent take or dosent know how to take advice which makes him more depressed, as he seem to go around in circles,

    Oh get off your high horse. Did you see the now deleted thread the other night where our OP nearly broke the swear filter while systematically telling multiple to kill themselves for just offering advice? Did you see earlier in this thread where people have stated the OP PM'd them with offensive message for just offering advice?

    He's not listening to any advice given. He should be seeking professional medical help and not subjecting people to extreme abuse. People here aren't trained to deal with mental illnesses. Banning him would be the kind thing to do. He's just laughing at you.

    I've reported the thread to the forum team, not because of the OP but because of certain posters that think it acceptable to bully someone because of their disability.

    sam m, ignore the posters in question and come back in a few days when the forum team have had time to deal with it. If you continue to respond to them you'll be giving them ammunition to continue their idiocy.

    1. I looked into esa and i can't get that, plus im still at college so i can't get jsa
    2. Girlfriends are the be all and end all, i know you are single but to me its a bad in, i have never had someone that has wanted to kiss me or hug me on new years eve like my stepbrother has so its very upsetting for me
    3. I know its not a bad thing but again at least it would put me on a level footing with my stepbrother who thinks he is so cool and he even drives up to where we are with his girlfriend by his side so again something i don't have
    4. I would get everything wrong just like i aways do
    5. Uni is the be all and end all for me, again at least i would look good and maybe even my dad might invite me to family parties or something like that when at the moment i feel he gets embarrassed by me with him living with my stepmum
    6. I am 24
    thats wierd read his first post ..like a different person..umm

    Hopefully they will lock it for his own good but he seems to have a get out of jail free card. In the meantime you are making it worse by continuing to enable him. He's taking you for a right mug and probably laughing at the division he is causing. He knows exactly what he is doing.

    I don't have any idea what you are talking about. At least IamWales is being supportive when you are making fun of me
