I have autism and this fact has disturbed me greatly for some time, to the point its led me to some dark paths. I just want to know if I can actually live a normal life with it or am I doomed to be a weirdo forever?

    What do you consider normal? One thing that may aid autistic understanding, is many people who are enormously depressed manage to maintain a really happy facade over it. That smiley, goofy lady from work might actually be struggling with deep clinical depression. You may actually be one of the most fulfilled of your peers without knowing it.
