I'm glad to hear that you're trying to take better care of yourself. I'm still learning myself. I totally relate to the being socialized to never think about yourself&feeling that EVERYONE hates you. I still don't do well with the EVERYONE HATES ME thing. I don't have many friends&the ones that I'm closest to don't even live in the same state as me. I have one friend here in the Portland area that I e-mail to on a pretty much daily basis, but we don't see each other face to face very often. She has mental problems too-though they're different from mine. I'll have to check in more often on this web site-I didn't think anyone was reading my posts to the forums. I found out today that 2 moderators replied to me& I tried to reply but couldn't figure out how to do it.

i partially blame my issues with socialising really. ive never been what you would call great at making friends. in fact i moved schools because the entirety of the previous one hated my guts. i dont know why.
but ugh. why cant i just get on with people and not assume that as soon as i stop giving my whole life to their getting better they will kick off and say baibai.
