WOW so much in common but yet such different background.
I'm hitting 50yo, I am not diagnosed, no medication here. I work full time in retail and I work almost full time at home with my relationship with my girlfriend/wife (at this ago wife is more like it).
People don't associate with me, it goes both ways. so much energy is used up daily just trying to cope/survive. I am so tired I just want to quit. All I get for my hard work is a paycheck that goes away to survive. It's just a big circle of nothing, complete emptiness
Being old and odd, I thought would be easy but it's just so old. Dead inside
