Why am I SO different??
Anxiety Support / by Brittanyyjones24

...See more I'm now 25 and honestly still feel like a kid/teen. I have no interest in things people my age would normally have interest in. I don't have friends (by choice), I find relationships cringy and all things romantic, I don't like going out (parties, clubs etc), I have no interest in drinking or smoking, I can go on and on. Why don't I have interest in any of those things?? Why don't I ever get the feeling of missing someone? I don't have to see my family for a long time and I won't miss them and they're not bad people. Why don't I find anyone to be attractive (guys)? What is it that's keeping me from not wanting to be in a relationship? I want to be like everyone else but it's extremely difficult. People see me as very boring and lame. No one likes me I know that for a fact. I know whenever someone sees me they automatically think there's something wrong with me and I don't want people to view me that way. I have an older sister and she makes me feel even worse about who I am. I don't need her to tell me I'm not normal, I'm a different breed, I'm retarded. I've been trying to get a job working from home but it's not working out. I'm tired of people not giving me a chance. I feel like I'm cursed! I want to work from home, start a online business, get a small house, maybe a car and just live alone. Very boring I know but I'm not sure why. I don't want to be this way. Once I hit 40, that's it. I still don't understand what's my purpose here. I feel like God placed me here for my family to use me for babysitting, doing their hair and for no one to like me. It's a lot more I want to share but this is already too long.

Nothing to live for

...See more I'm in no way suicidal but I just want a new life. I'm 24 years old, never had a job, don't know how to drive, never really been in a relationship, have zero friends, didn't graduate high school etc. My social skills SUCK, all I ever do is babysit for my sister....literally only getting paid $60 a week for 2 kids, I almost had a job working as a nanny but the person turned me down and I was devastated. I hate rejection with a passion and I will avoid getting rejected at all cost. No one has time for me....no one have patience for me because of the way I am. I have a hard time meeting new people, I never know what to say. I'm uncomfortable with saying my own name, asking people how they are, if they're okay, making small talk, and my vocabulary sucks. I come off as shy and awkward to a lot of people. I always feel like everyone hates me and is judging me in a bad way so I avoid going certain places. I didn't even attend my own sister's baby shower yesterday. I'm so different from others my age. I act so much younger than what I really am. I find relationships (bf gf) disgusting, I hate affection, I hate being touched, all things romantic disgust me so much! I do not understand why I'm this way. I wish I could be like everyone else and I have tried but it's so complicated. Everything that I like no one else finds interest in. My oldest sister makes sure to tell me my interest are boring and a waste of time doing/watching. She tells me how different I am and I don't like that. I've always been a shy quiet kid and I was bullied for years about my physical appearance so maybe that's why I'm this way....idk. I keep randomly crying because I just feel so stuck and I found out some information and so now I feel betrayed. I can't talk to anyone about anything cause no one cares. How my life is I really don't see a reason to live even though I'm going to keep trying and to seek help because I want my life to be better. It's so much more I wish I could share but I've already made this thread too long already...so I doubt anyone will read this.
