Lonely, anxious, depressed, and just tired.

...See more I wasn't sure what group I should go into. I don't really know what I'm looking for. I guess I need someone to talk to? I'm a felon released from 5 years in prison about 3 years ago. I think I may be a bit autistic (I've never had it checked out). I left Christianity about 5ish years ago (born and raised Pentecostal). I have few friends, lots of social anxiety, a long-distance relationship. I might be out of a job soon because the small business, whom I work for, might close down. Hardly anything in my life works out. My relationships never last long. I'm almost 40, never married, no kids. I have an Associates degree, but can never find a job in that field. Some days it feels like everything is crumbling around me, and I haven't anyone to talk to. My girlfriend lives on the other side of the world, so she's at work when I'm awake, but is already asleep when I wake up. I don't know. I'm just tired of everything.

So tired

...See more Honestly, I'm not sure of what to say or where to begin. I guess I'll start with the suspicion that I may have High Functioning Autism. I have never gone for a diagnosis, but I looked up the symptoms which seem quite familiar. It has always been difficult for me to do any sort of socializing. People think that I'm just shy, but it's way more than that. Due to my anti-social behaviors, I have had few friends, and I shared interests with even fewer. Relationships never work out for me because always seem to be "not what they're looking for". I've always been lonely and (embarrassed to admit) am still a Virginia. My brain always locks up when I get in romantic situations. Also, I grew up in a very conservative environment and in Pentecostal Christianity. I eventually did something that I am ashamed of and spent 5 years in prison I am now a registeredsex offenser and I live with my parents. Many friends, even close friends, left me. I just have some family left and a small handful of friends whom I rarely see. I always found it difficult to find a job as well, but now, it is extremely hard to find one. The one I have now, which I am thankful for (the owner knows and goes to church with my family), but it's a dead end job where I have more responsibilities than what I am paid to have. I'm an atheist now (only my parents and a couple of friends know) and liberal. In conclusion, I'm lonely, tired, my life never seems to go right. (Edited for content by @peaceloveandpaws)

...See more I've never tried any sort of therapy or counseling before, except for a couple of months on Better help. I suffer from anxiety and social anxiety, depression, loneliness, helplessness, and I think (not sure for I never tried to be diagnosed) I might have High Functioning Autism (Asperger's Syndrome). I know I have had social anxiety for the majority of my life, and slowly became more depressed and lonely as my life never seems to work out. I am also a sex offender, and spent 5 years in prison. I recently got out about a year or so ago. I have no place to fit in. I'm an atheist and a need surrounded by those who are not. After prison, I have even less friends. Romantic relationships never seem to work out, and my current girlfriend lives on the other side if the world. I'm not sure what I am looking for, but I do know I need someone to talk to.
