I feel like I'm trapped in my own life. Everybody I've either loved or cared about has walked out on me. My dad didn't want me, my mom only kept me around for child support checks & tax refunds. My 2 brothers treated me like a chore and always told me because I had a different dad then them I didn't matter. I never had luck with girls. I'm 34 no friends and worst of all a virgin. I feel like not getting out of bed anymore, that I'm trash. Some nights I just cry knowing I'll never have sex or have friends. What did I do in life that was so horrible to deserve a s****y family and nobody that loves me. I keep thinking if I died nobody would give a s**t.

    Hello Rob. I am so sad hearing how much you are suffering and for so long. Rob have you been to a counselor for some therapy and maybe some antidepressants as you sound very depressed to me? I think if you are open to it there is help out there for you. Will you keep us posted? Diane

    You may not have people around you right now that love you but there will be some that care and would miss you. You are the only one you can control,  start to love yourself. Small steps... start by doing something healthy for yourself joining a gym is a great idea if that seems too daunting start with an internet exercise  video   Do that till you feel confident enough to go to a gym. Most have a free two week trial start there. Get a new haircut. Just make some small healthy changes.  Know you are not alone in your suffering.  Deb

    Hi Rob - no wonder you are feeling like you are. Your life has been built on rejection. We can't change what has happened and how others behave. We only have control over ourselves. You need help. Call the doctor and make an appointment to discuss how you are feeling. Medications may be prescribed. They will take 3-8 weeks to work and are a tool used to help balance your mood. Tell the doc that you have had a poor start in life and it has affected who you are now. A referral should be supplied for a counsellor/therapist or psychologist where you can discuss things deeply in a safe environment, learn about yourself. coping skills and how to recognise and deal with any triggers. It will take time but will be well worth the effort. It's time to wrest control of your life from those who have crippled you. Take their power away. Become the self sufficient, confident, productive human being you were born to be. It won't be easy - but it will get easier. Meanwhile we are always here to talk. We know how you feel.
