I may not believe in depression, but I'm trying to do this in response to having a hard time in life (issues with well-paid employment and belonging) while severely autistic/Asperger's.

It isn't helping much for finding a place in the world, but the activity this is generating is making me much happier. I have realised how powerful I am. I am actually pretty awesome to be doing the things that I'm doing. That feels good!

Not much luck with earning money though. I'm fine with it, my part-time job provides for me well enough. If money is an issue, you may want to first try to get some financial stability before you take a leap into creating something of your own.

EDIT: Post an anonymized resume here. Can't hurt. Worst case scenario you'll get some feedback.

My resume isn't in English, so posting it wouldn't be helpful. I guess the main problem of my resume is the long time, years, of unemployment, combined with not much work experience.
What did you do while unemployed? Even if it doesn't seem directly related to what you want to do, you never know what will peak the hiring managers interest
Where are you located?
Switzerland
Mail me your resume to the email in my HN handle. I am a tech recruiter located in Zurich and might be able to help.

cheers
