Hi all, new here.

[Chimorin]

Heya. Not much to me, just another guy on the internet. Hope to find some like-minded people on here, there's not a lot of us out there after all, eh? I'm quite isolated these days since I'm currently in a massive burnout (since 2022), and as a result of this I'm a complete recluse these days. Hopefully I can make some new connections here who I can actually relate to.

Hello and welcome. May I ask what caused the burnout?

Hello and welcome. May I ask what caused the burnout?

I believe it was caused by an amalgamation of things, put I guess the one which did send me over the edge was when I bailed my former friend (lost contact) out of an abusive relationship. That confrontation in particular along with having to juggle other ‘friends’ and potential relationship opportunities caused me to implode, and as a result of that I got ostracised for it (I suppose they thought I was weak or something, not knowing I was autistic (I never told them)), further exacerbating the issue further. These days I’m a complete recluse, no friends, no partner, nothing. I of course wish I still had them but I just can’t do it anymore, my brain is fried and the headaches are constant man, I hate this condition.

Welcome.

Sorry about the headaches. I’m familiar with chronic pain and it sucks.

I have no relationship and very few friends. At this point in my life, I prefer it that way. We pay a high price for any kind of relating.

I feel your pain on that. I hate how this world rewards the wicked and punishes the cruel, that’s how it feels anyway. I’m still young of course but I guess I have to accept being alone for the time being, like you said we pay a high price for making close relations, just end up being used or betrayed (at least in my experience). I’m just so passed it all trying to juggle social hierarchies and that sort of thing, I just want to be me but it seems though I’ll never be accepted for who I am, at least in this world (as it goes for most of us here).

Welcome to the club duder. It's a great bunch of folks. And chances are no matter what interests you someone has a conversation going about it. So poke around and you'll be amazed. And if you can't find what you're looking for just start up a new thread.

Thanks for the warm reception. We all have quirks which interest us after all, bound to have overlap in the same stuff from time eh?

I just noticed you are brand new here. Welcome. You have already responded and connected to one of my comments That's one of the things we do here, even if we cannot connect to others in real life. I think you will fit in.

My name, Shamar, is an old Turkish word meaning "a slap on the face." I spent a lot of time being slapped on the face (mostly figuratively, sometimes physically). My avatar

Thanks for the warm welcome. My name doesn’t mean anything special but I spent a lot time getting slapped along with getting punched and kicked, so I know how it feels haha. Don’t understand why this world treats us so cruel, but in any case I’m glad I found this forum. Hopefully I can feel a little less isolated being here.
