I have been alone so long that I have no options left. People seem to instinctively stay away from me, I don't know what it is. I guess i'm not very good looking, idk. The people that i do know think i'm really funny. I'm stuck with alot of friends who don't go out anywhere that I can be sociable. I don't know what to do. I'm 22 with no friends, and no way of getting friends since my social skills have been stunted.... I really need help, i'm getting so depressed i don't know what to do.

Being on my own is not any way worse than being in a poisonous relationship. you presently have the time to get your head back jointly. study something from it. Being with someone is about feeling good in each and every others organization,its about honesty, information, love and all something else, if someone makes you experience undesirable each and every of the time it ain't accurate is it ?. you would possibly want to also keep in mind that you're well worth more advantageous,and that you do should be at liberty,i'm getting the sensation you do not experience that way. word that you don`t stick with an analogous course (complicated to do). were her techniques reminiscent of someone on the point of you ? if so as that would want to respond to a lot of your questions.

you're stuck with a lot of friends?????? that's not alone. You have friends who think you are funny? that's not alone.
If you want to go do something with other people, go do something that you're interested in - where you and other people will have something in common to talk about - take a special interest class - photography, pottery, jewelry making, etc -
you're only 22 - I got divorced from my last husband 18 years ago - still not remarried or living with someone (which is ok) - give yourself a break - you don't have to be with someone all the time. If you don't want to go do something by yourself, invite one of your friends, don't wait for them to say " hey let's go do ______ _____" you can be the one to initiate some fun things to do. Maybe they just need some encouragement too.
First, you have to like yourself.
find the things you like about yourself - no do not even think about the things you don't like. The more you like yourself, no matter what you look like, people will like you -as long as you're not egotistical about it.
Have fun -

yeah. . i'm 20 and i just had to move back in with my parents bc of some stuff that's besides the point. . but it's really hard to make friends for some reason. . . i think my only shot for new friends right now would be this new job i just started. . is there any way you can make friends at work, or through people at work? well, that's just assuming that you even work. . .

Sit down and think this over, it just may be you that don't want friend because you don't know how to handle them, all you have to do is be yourself and be nice and respectful and treat others they way you would want them to treat you, start to go out by yourself and meat people of interest and see that people can really be friendly and so can you social life.

I in the same as you are now, I'm different and folks don't hang around with cause they think you are weird or too square. Join a club, exercise club, drawing class, art class, computer class. These folks will not except you cause you are different from them, if they like you they could use you, that what happen to me at school and at work, I learn to except that but I don't want to hang around with them cause I see they make fun of others who aren't like them or is the generation gap

there are ways to make friends and find people that want to be near you as much as you want to be near them. try going to the gym, record stores, whatever public place that you feel comfortable at. mingle, get to know people :) also, to my experience, there tend to be things at the end of most religious services that let you get to know people. cell groups, clubs, bible studies, etc. that's a good way to get to know people, if you're religious.
but if that loneliness you're feeling just becomes too overwhelming, i do think that you should seek therapy. i've been, and it's nothing to be ashamed about.

You need to get out and make new friends. If you feel that you're not attractive then maybe you should change the way you dress or something.
