My friends don't really seem up for doing anything and I am not getting any gifts except cash to help me repay my debts. I did want to do something but I keep suggesting things getting luke warm responses and talking myself out of doing anything. I've already had to shift the party because a guy I know has his birthday the same week and is having his party on my birthday and my mates are going to that one. So should I just forget the whole thing as to not risk a dissappointingly poor party I can't really afford, or should I plan the whole thing (I will even have to bake my own birthday cake if I want one) and just hope it will be fun.
I can't really just go to the pub as I am an alcoholic and going into drinking establishments makes me nostalgic for alcohol.
I wanted to go to a museum at one point but as nobody wants to go with me and I don't want to go alone that is out.

I can't do anything at home as my family hate my having friends over. I can't go to the other guy's party without spending £25 or more on a taxi.
I would love to do a fancy dress party except I can guarantee nobody except me would dress up. I don't think I will bother baking a cake for my birthday as I need to bake a cake next week for a house warming some friends are having.

No idea how old you are, if you're under twenty five DO SOMETHING, anything for your birthday. Trust, it's the last one you'll ever enjoy! Bob Dillon once said "no use stayin' alive; when you're twenty five" it's not that drastic but 25 is the peak of your youth, fully enjoy every birthday up till then!!!

Sounds like a pickle, why don't you go to this mates party? I know it's a cheapy and possibly mean idea but it beats being alone on your birthday. Or just have a few close mates and have a movie marathon? Happy birthday though, sorry if I've been useless.

Your mates probably don't want to party with you as they know you will end up being more in debt. It's a bit much when friends have to give you gifts of money to help clear your debts, get real.....
