Well Mordecaii, I can safely say that you're not a loser, or pathetic. You've just had a rough time in life, with events that most people never experience. It's unfortunate that you've had to go through this.
May I ask how old you are? If you're close to 18, getting your GED once you turn that age sounds like a really good idea. If you're not close to that age...I'd suggest getting in contact with the cops who said they'd help you, but never did. Also, contacting the school and asking for their help is a great option too. But as I said, if you're close to 18, then the GED sounds like the best option.
I had always assumed that you didn't need the actual card for your SIN...when filling out applications and such, they just ask for the number, not the card itself. But that is coming from a 19 year old girl on disability who has never had a proper job of her own!
I'm sure that you would be able to get the card, if you know the number. It may cost money though.
I'm afraid I don't have much advice to give...as I am currently living a simple life myself (live alone with my puppy, finishing my high school, on disability)...but I would definitely suggest engaging in activities you enjoy. Listening to music, walks, journaling, reading, writing, even the seemingly simplest of things can provide happiness. Spending time with your boyfriend as well. If he has friends, maybe you would be able to hang out with them and they could become your friends as well.
Please be kind to yourself, you are not a loser. And remember, although it's not the same as real life, there are people here who do care about you. Please feel free to post anytime, we are here to listen.
