Feel so alone, don't belong. Anyone else feel this way?

Hey all...

Didn't know I was autistic until recently in adulthood. People all my life have been manipulative and cruel, using me, so struggle with trust and never felt like I belong anywhere. I work from home and try to keep myself busy out of work - but when you're always on your own you start to wonder what's the point. Have tried volunteering and evening classes etc. but think I'm just too broken as don't gel with anyone, while everyone else seems to gets on with each other. I don't want the rest of my life to be like this, it's so empty and lonely . Does anyone else feel this way? How do you cope?

  • Hi,

    I can relate. Yes, sadly I do. I don't want the rest of my life to be like that either.

    I got myself a couple of indoor Guinea pigs for company. Which has helped. But I do hope that one day I will meet someone. Some days I'm more optimistic than others. But mostly I'm not.
