Hi Robi
I'm female and I'm in Sussex.
I am not working at the moment. I used to work as a secretary but lost my job because I developed repetitive strain injury.
I don't think it is made doing a job because you can work alone. I can completely identify with that. If I worked I would much prefer to work alone too. I have problems talking to and being around people.
I am glad you are finding it helpful talking to us here. We will do what we can to offer support.
Take care.
Briary
