I just want people to be kind in here.

I am not here for advice. I am here for support

My new therapist said this is a bad place for support and this is very toxic place to be yes I showed him this very form and I was treated here and he said it's not good for me yes my new therapist said that his words and what what I was bullied here so yes take that one with a grain of salt.

The internet can be a cruel place. I really am quite the optimist though. I think society will get better and better at handling the internet. It really is a new challenge. In truth I think we are all pretty much just taking it on the chin right now. Future generations will get much better at handling the downsides of the internet.

It sounds like you have a decent therapist I am happy for you

To one extent or another my hobbies have always been reading, writing, movies, music, trying to get into a relationship and getting high/drunk.

I no longer drink for health reasons. The others, I still to my best to partake in them somewhat. I have lost a lot of joy in reading and watching movies though. Those are the two hobbies I will confess I hope come back to me when I am in a relationship.

Thank you for asking

Have you ever tried co-op video games or something else that's purely cooperative instead of competitive? Might be cool to team up with some people and work toward a mutual goal. That type of stuff builds bonds really well. I think I remember that someone else might've mentioned this before? Not sure.

persistence and luck

For people like me and the original poster 100% original pure dumb luck.

It is a great suggestion. I think even by neurodivergent standards I do not really connect or bond with people in quite the same ways.

It is tough, I talk about my frustrations over being single. Very kind people like you make a great suggestion and I am put in the position where I have to say that is not really my jam. Video games are just not for me. I can spend all night talking or texting to someone. The second it becomes just about any other sort of activity I am out.

Then people attack me and say I never take their suggestions. It is a fair critique. I know I am different. I know I must seem like such a pain. I may explore social activties inside of a relationship. But as a rule of thumb, anything social is not something I will be very open to.

I am sorry to disappoint. I really truly am.

I can have one female friend now you can even call her one but basically she basically never texted me she's very busy we hanged out a few times but now I feel like she's basically ghosting me now and this is not the first time this happened the other times the past 2 years last year last one was brutal I'm very tired I'm over medicated.

I'm now on risperdal which I used to be on back when I was in my twenties when like the original poster I lost my friend group back then I never had any friends zero in college by the way I dropped out because of that.

But I had friends after that and I lost my first one I went into a lone wolf State 15 years then after that just read my post history it's very depressants.

I was previously on Prozac for a long time which actually made me too hyper and sociable I was also on Seroquel which was bad too but now I feel too mellow I feel like I'm actually going blind now I know one even cares about my life or my struggles.

I am so sorry about that. Do you have a good GP doctor you know and trust?

I have been on two SSRIs in my life. Neither remotely went well for me. I am glad you had some success on Prozac

Losing vision for any amount of time is horrible though and is something you should talk to your doctor about as soon as reasonable.

Thank you so much for sharing all that. I imagine many people in here have simular stories to you and I. Life can be very tough at time. Thanks again. I probably should be off to bed. Take it easy thanks you.

I get it that advice can seem like attack.
Even good advice has seemed like that to me, so it isn't always possible for me to make use of even the very best advice.

Sometimes there's too much information and I can't all get it processed and there is too much work to do trying to sort the information out - so it almost turns into noise.
Adding more information (good advice) has sometimes seemed almost like attack.

This cryptic exercise of "trying to live in the world" can be a very hard ask.
