I too feel quite isolated and alone most of the time. However, worrying about it in self-pity isn't going to get me anywhere so what I do is to just try and live in the present, enjoy the small things in life like reading, exercising to working together with university colleagues to get through...

Thanks again for the additional advice everyone. And you're right TheRealCallie about ADHD not really being a good excuse to cover up for the cause of my mistakes. as there are tools and ways to get around it like you mentioned, which i should try to make more use of. Thinking about my case for...

Thanks for the advice so far everyone. In terms of talking to my family members about them being overly critical and harsh of me, unfortunately they are the types that won't really admit to being wrong for being overly critical of my mistakes even if it's of the simplest of ones in addition to...

Hi everyone. As a 23 year old who has relatively low self esteem, my issues stem from the fact that my family members alongside siblings are overly critical of me. However its fair to say that i deserved to be criticised due to having slight ADHD symptoms of being forgetful and clumsy at times...

Sometimes I feel like this, having that **** you attitude especially when I feel betrayed or frustrated with life but even so, I don't feel its right to take out my frustration or anger out at someone if they weren't the cause of me having this attitude at times.

Definitely feel like a loser in more ways than one. Unorganized and unmotivated, no real relationships or goal aspirations, I guess you could say that I'm a shrewd operator and that I'm just drifting through life.

See title. I'll start. 2013 for me wasn't exactly a great year as I didn't do as well as I'd like in Uni/College having failed 2 subjects below expectations. Not to mention, getting lazy in between the rest of the subjects I studied this year and not getting the right results I expected, just...

Hi David and welcome to the forums. I can very much relate to just how ordinary and down our lives can be when we feel that we're not making little or any progress at all for that matter. However, I would suggest you try and find the willpower to push on with life, achieve what you can now and...

Brian7, I applaud you for having the courage to seek advice regarding your situation about feeling stuck in life and things just not going the way we wanted. For one, as a fellow, young, 21 year old college (University in Australia) student, I can definitely relate to your situation of failing...

That life is not a race. Yet my Parents see things the other way and thinks I'm disadvantaged for not being able to achieve things earlier like my peers.

Hi Amethyst and welcome to the forums. I'm an Aussie myself from the Canberra Region and it's nice to have more Australians around here. While I'm a lot younger than you are at 21 years of age alongside having different issues to deal with, being behind my peers in life, I'm sure you'll find...

This I can relate to and I sympathize with you Wallflower as to times when we feel like nothing especially in the face of adversity, scrutiny and mistakes we make from time to time. Just like myself, no one's perfect and there will be moments when you will get scrutinized by the important people...

Just like everyone else, my parents too have criticised and put me down. And because they seem to have a rather short temper, they do tend to overreact and become patriotic to even the smallest of mistakes I make. As a result, it does get hard to keep a straight face and move on from it. But...

Thanks for the quick kick up the backside. I needed it and feeling better now. Just have to move on.

Yes I did. It's called GameFAQS. I had a good sleep today. Did you?
