I've been hesitant to post anything like this before, I think becouse I don't trust people easily, and I worry that I will be judged and whatnot. But hell, maybe it will help me to write about it.
My biggest problem is that I'm isolated, and have been since I had to drop out of school a few years ago becouse of mental health issues. It was a bad decision, but how could I have know what awaited me then?
Anyways, it's been a couple of years now, and I haven't made any real progress, my days are very much the same. At first I feared that I was just a lazy lowlife and that is why I can't get my life back in order. But it's so much more than that, no one would choose this for themselves.
I'm often depressed and even suicidal, I have a hard time coping with just... existing, sometimes. I think I could manage to have a job though, if it was something that I could deal with. Sadly, since I haven't finished my studies, there's zero chance that I could get any job whatsoever. I've tried to reach out for help, but society isn't exactly embracing in that aspect.
So, my only obvious option seem to be to pick up my studies again. I would definately like to, and it it out of the way. The problem is that it's extremely tough for me to deal with simply going outside. Sure, I can go out to visit the nearby stores and such, but that's becouse it feels pretty safe, although sometimes that too gets me down. When I have to be around alot of people I just get really depressed, I can't deal with it. A while ago I went to visit my sister, it's only a short drive, maybe 10 minutes, but it hit me really hard, I felt sick. Exposing myself to the world like that can even makes me want to kill myself, it's that difficult for me to deal with.
I definately have some mental issues (otherwise I don't think I would be in this situation at all). Most recently I discovered that I can relate very much to a disorder called avoidant personality disorder, although I don't have a diagnosis or anything. I've been in theraphy on and off since I was around 11 years old. It has never done me any good, unfournately.
In the end, I just wish I could find a way back into the world. I know that if I could get back on track somehow, things could be so much better. I might find my way someday, but I fear I might lose my mind before that.
Anyways, if you read this far, thanks for listening! And don't feel obligated to reply, even though I would appreciate any input you guys may have. It's just nice to get this off my chest.
