Asperger's

I'm 47 and have Asperger's syndrome. I feel my main problem is I'm unable to build relationships with family or anyone. Any time I'm making contact with people they seem uncomfortable or I'm too over exuberant. I don't know what to do.?

I can only think of ideas, as my Son (35yrs old) that maybe you could Stim before visiting family or something, that uses your energy a bit first, could you go to Cinema or Music or Art venue, Swimming or Bowling, with a Family member or friend. I'm thinking that if your doing something together, rather than, sitting type visit or Cafe. You can then move freely & hopefully enjoy time together. I maybe on the wrong track of thought, sorry if I am.

I find time spent outdoors with people for joint activities is more comfortable than for events indoors.

When everyone is outside; there seems to be greater expectation and acceptance that people will move around and be exuberant.
