I have had trouble making friends since I was a small child. moving around every 3 years, small for my age. Teacher's that were not very receptive to my sensitivity. it has always seemed like an uphill battle. I too have been diagnosed as schizo effective and bipolar. I am married however but I still feel lonely. I'm am encouraged by Psych Central and find it comforting as I have met so many compassionate and caring people on some of these forums.
