I think there's a difference between liking to help people and feeling like you have to help people in order to have any self worth. The latter is not healthy. I'd encourage you to maybe step back a bit and think about what you want out of life for yourself, and how to go about getting it. Maybe it means meeting more people, which can be hard, but if you're still in school there are lots of clubs and societies that you can join, or you could try volunteering someplace. That way you'd still be helping people, but also meeting new people, and hopefully building up some self esteeem along the way.

There's nothing wrong with caring about other people - that makes you a special person, but you can't let yourself get sucked into taking care of other people at the expense of looking after your own needs.

Remember to take care of yourself too.
