My whole life I have always felt like I am not a real person. Others seem to be doing things the "right" way and they all seem normal.

I feel like I can't even talk or relate to anyone. So I stay in seclusion.

No one shows me any respect. I have lost all contact with relatives except parents. I want to lose all contact with them but don't know how to get away from them. I feel as if I can't make any more money or have no time to make any more. I am very depressed, hardly speak to anyone, and am always be myself. My kids do not respect me and neither do my parents.

I am constantly walking on eggshells waiting to be yelled at by parents or belittled or told I am doing something wrong again.

It is no wonder I have sever selective mutism as a child, am depressed and suffered from panic disorder years ago.

I feel like I am watching everyone else live their lives while my life just passes by.
