Being around others doesn't seem worth it to me anymore, but it used to.

That doesn't sound immature at all about being hurt about not being invited to the party. That would hurt anyone's feelings whether they would admit it or not. If I worked at the type of place to have a party like that I would surely be the one they would leave out. I've been treated the same way many times, just not in that exact situation.

My mom is also cold and not comfortable talking about emotions. Probably a large part of why we both have these problems today

I don't have any advice but I can relate to a lot of the stuff you said. I'm not very exciting to talk to and have good reason to believe I am weird, awkward and annoying but you can PM me if you ever feel like it
Thanks for your reply! I know exactly what you mean by it almost doesn't seem worth it being around people anymore. I have such a hard time just getting the energy to get up and get ready to go out in public much less interact with people. Sounds very weird to most people, I'm glad you understand! and don't worry about feeling awkward or weird, I feel the same way myself, but the coolest people in history were weird!! Look up some examples of famous people in history and pop-culture that had mental health problems like depression and anxiety and others, that always makes me feel a little bit cheered up. PM me also if you ever need to talk!
