I am so bored, angry and sad. All I do is stare at computer these days. Haven't really socialized for a year.
Have you tried psychedelics or medication yet?

I know the feeling, even if u have friends it can get lonely. They often have their own obligations and lives. Especially the older you get. Do u have any apps where u live where u can meet people? Through internet? I know it's nerve racking to meet strange people but it's important for mental health to have some connection. How old are u? I suppose if u live in a tiny town or in middle of nowhere that is not as easy. Or no way of transporting yourself.

I'm 23 and I have social anxiety so doing that over the app and then meeting unknown people would be terrible for me. I do talk to people online from time to time like this forum and chat section but I don't have any online friends either. Yea I haven't met anyone that shares common interests in my town nor in college. I also don't have a car so I can't go somewhere.

I tried mushrooms and they made me feel good for a few days and then the effect wore off. I tried them again after a year or so and it didn't really have the same impact as the first time. I laughed a lot but after it was done I was back to the old routine. Never tried any medication and I should honestly go to psychiatrist but lazyness and fear is holding me back from going there.

Sucks to see you all go through the same thing and I hope you all find a good friend IRL. If you feel lonely you can talk to me.

You must not let social anxiety stop u, drink some alcohol, smoke a bit of weed, whatever u gotta do to take edge off. It will steal your life if u don't confront it. Remember that u are a worthwhile person and u are meant to be happy and have relationships just like anybody else. You're so young that it's ok to not feel confident and normal. It takes effort to learn social skills and practice.

I'm on the same boat as you. I have literally no friends. I have blood family members and my boyfriend. It can get really lonely sometimes

My girlfriend is jealous of my best friend, there have been several discussions, today he does not talk to me anymore, and I do not have many true friends :c
If you want, we can be friends. :)

Sorry I was sleepy when I wrote the reply. I meant that you should be ok with saying "I have no friends", I don't see anything wrong with it.
But i'm not okay with it. I'm ashamed of the fact that I have none. I really do want to live life like how I used to and a really big part of it was having friends.

Yes it has already stolen my life. There were times when I couldn't go to the store and that happens now too but not as often as it did. I have to push myself to help myself. Thanks my man.

I know man I want to do same and I can see why people would misjudge you if you said you have no friends. People can be very judgmental that is true but you are who you are and not what other person thinks because you said something.

I'm in the same boat. I torpedoed every friendship I had a few months back and they're gone for good. It's devastating.

don't worry, i have -2 friends




Haven't really socialized for a year.

i didn't socialize for 80% of my lifetime, first i wanted to and now i just don't want to. be happy that you still feel the need for friends, that's a sign for wanting to live. if you stare at the computer all the time go check out ppl in internet. or maybe this is a bad idea, idk. i only get in contact with ppl because of weed alcohol etc. so i cant say much about this. it won't matter anyways, i think you know the words already, if these are not enough for you to move your ass then give us more text to reply. and if you want to talk, just PM. me or anyone else

I did socialize before but I was always a loner and in high school it started to develop into almost becoming a shut in. I spent one whole summer just closed in my room being awake at night and sleeping when the sun comes out. I am kinda comfortable with being alone and there is a part of me that doesn't want friends but I am not there yet. I still find myself wanting to connect with others but it happens rarely. I still get a bit sad that people in college choose everyone else for partners and I am left alone but I do see it also as a good thing. I do try to talk with people on internet but those are brief conversations and I don't want to be pushy or creepy so nothing comes out of those conversations. Thank you man.
