Having said that, most colleges have disability support services. You don’t say where you live, but it would be my strong suggestion that you stay reasonably close to home, so that if there should be a crisis, your family can get there to support you quickly. I’ve had out-of-state students with severe social and emotional abilities in class, and since we only see them in class, it is very hard for them to get the level of support that they need without the backup of their families nearby.
I don’t know if you or your parents have done so, but make sure that when you look at colleges that you talk directly to the Director of their Disability Support Services unit. I can’t speak for these people overall, but as an administrator I worked closely with the Director at my university last year, and I have a lot of confidence in her knowledge and professionalism. Even if they cannot in good conscience tell you that their school is right for you, they should be able to give you some leads to find a place which would work. It is obvious from the quality of your email that whatever your problems, they are not mental, so you should be able to find a school which works for you.
I can give one suggestion which, given your location, may or may not be useful. I have a relative with high-functioning autism who is currently in a program at UC Santa Barbara which seems to be working very well.
Good luck!
