I’m quite young (only twenty) but I feel very alone, let me begin by saying that I have spent most of the last four years by myself going more than a month at a time without seeing or speaking to anyone that I knew just the checkout person at the supermarket asking how I am sometimes I would try to respond but could not find the words, I moved back into the city less than a year ago and things where a little better then when I lived in the country side but things changed quickly, these days when I see people I always feel like a third wheel always getting in the way of what people want to do feeling as if they have change their plans to include me.
I cried for the first time in three years a couple of weeks ago, I had applied for a bottom of the barrel
job I was rejected because I was not contactable (which was a lie), after getting this news I broke down in silence not because of the job itself but it just seems to be the the story of my life thus far, whenever I try to get up I always seemed to get told why I have already failed before I’ve even begun, try talking to my friend about but we have such different views on the world and have very different back rounds, I just find myself tired and worn out by everything, I get up in the morning and realise that my dream was just that a dream and nothing more, the reason it’s taking me so long to kill myself because I wanna do it where no one will find me, and then I can be forgotten by the few who still remember me.

I feel for your situation. I often times feel alone too. I do have friends, family and aquaintances but I still feel alone and I feel often like its time to checkout. But I keep going and I find it is worht it to keep going as long as you can. I think you should reach out a little more and make some friends. then maybe you wont be so lonely. Friends can be a big help is life. I have had many friends in life that really came through for me and helped me through bad times. Knowing the right kinds of people can make your life easier. I have friends that have helped me find jobs when I needed one. Friends that helped me move when I needed too. Friends that offered me advice that changed things for th better. so people can be very good. you just have to find the right friends. I know the job seaarching these days is tough but haang in there and something will come up for you. I dont know where you live but many cmmunities have places you can go where you can search databases for jobs and a lot of that can be done online too. hang in there. We all have hard times. but pushing through the hard times builds character and it makes you a bit stronger and then when you prevail down the line and have things good you can know you earned it > buy pressing on and not giving up
dont give up
Thanks for the support, but with the looking to friends for support I already lean heavily on them just to survive, and I’m tired of seeing the strain it puts on them and for what, I’m so tired of letting people down and being let down, I know my life has been short but feels like it is going at a snails pace and it’s painful and when something does happen it’s over in the blink of an eye before I can even really enjoy whatever small thing it was and before I know it, it’s back to the snails pace watching everyone pass me by.
I get a horrible feeling whenever someone asks how I’ve been or what have I been up to and pretty much every time for the last four years my response has been not much, or sometimes I say drugs (although I would pass a drug test at the moment) it feels as if whenever someone asks that question it’s like the world is slapping me to remind me of just how pathetic and worthless I am in comparison to everyone else.
