My life is such a sad mess, I don't know how i'll ever get it right. I'm trying to play catch up just to be normal, i don't think i will ever get to enjoy my youth like normal people. I'm 22 now and i'm tired of the silent struggle.
 
Elaborate more on what you're going through. What silent struggle do you mean?

If your life is a sad mess, try taking small steps to pick up the pieces. I'm afraid I don't really know what your situation is so that's all I can say. What do you think you wanna accomplish while you're still young?
 
Your never alone. Life has it's struggles but it's the way you handle them that defines the person we are. Work towards the person you aspire to be, and let the past go, There is no going back....Never is. Let go. Just let go...

Everyday think "What can I do that's for me today, what can I do to better myself" everyday....always. You have to look ahead man there's no choice.

Maybe in another life we can fix all our wrongs but for now, lets stop making them. Take the hard road to make it right.
 
I sympathize with you Troubled. These are things I'm having to deal with too.

I wish you the best in whatever decisions you're gonna make :) I'm happy that you really are trying to overcome things worrying you before. I'm doing the same thing, trying to adjust and become more confident about myself. Be proud of what you're doing! :)

I would not consider you to be "behind" in anyway; some of us have difficult struggles early on, or maybe things did not work out the way that we expected. There is still time for you to have this sorted out and future opportunities. It may feel like you're going nowhere - like I feel too sometimes, but the only thing you can do is look forward, and not back.
Of course, it is easier said than done...but you can get there.
It is tiresome to go through life's struggles, but give it your best and hopefully things will start looking up soon.

friend,

i've been in your shoes, so i'm going to speak to you directly.

why in the world are you trying to "play catch up" to be "normal"?

who sets this normal standard?

in my honest opinion, i think you're wasting your time chasing the limelight. we are all unique people, and those people you call normal that you're trying to be like are not worth immitating. they might laugh at us because we're different, but we can laugh at them because they're all the same. they're all drones, and you're not. the grass is not greener on the other side.
 
Troubled, you're not playing catch-up at all! If I would say that I was playing catch-up at your age, I would be playing catch-up all my life. I sometimes feel at the end of a year that I didn't accomplished certain things that I wanted to accomplish but I laid myself down by the fact that that's just life.

At least you're trying to turn things around and you are still young and you will accomplish the things that you want.

Thanks for the replies once again.

I'm not really trying to fit in with people, i've distanced myself from people my whole life. I'm trying catch up in a life sense, for example becoming more independant instead of being reclusive, developing some kind of future. My parents can't support me forever, so this is a very real thing.

I brought up the aspergers link because i've always had some form of difficulty socialising. I've always felt 'dead inside'.. i'm away with the fairies or not on the same wavelength that everyone else is on.

You're just being yourself and there's no better way to gaining true friends :) Correct me if I may be wrong but are you by chance scared of the future or you just have a deep longing to fit it? My mind sometimes goes with fairies as well. I'm very fond of daydreaming xD
