How sad is it that suicide rates are higher then dating rates for people on the spectrum?

[Anonymous]

According to this article 60% of people on the autism spectrum will attempt suicide

Only 32% of autistic people experience romantic relationships and only 5% result in marriage and even more worrisome those that do progress to marriage have a 80% divorsal rate

so the big question is why is self harm more of a sure thing then a happy loving relationship

Im surprised it is as high as 32% but i would not believe everything you read online really.

This isn’t misinformation these have come from highly reliable sources I’m not sure if your familiar with the difficulty people on the spectrum experience in life but it’s very different then someone neurotypical
