My parents don't understand me and are to busy being proud of my brother and his new wife and how good there doing but i feel so alone and i have no friends that live close by that understand me. my mom thinks im lazy and not wanting to try and neither does my dad. life seems really sad to me and i have no one that is in love with me and why would anyone be? im ugly and unattractive and fat i really hate myself so much no one wants to be around someone who depressed all the time. ive started thinking bout suicide A LOT more. i feel so alone for so long . i feel like im so restricted living with my parents. im 25 years old and cant make my own decisions for my live.

I'm sorry you are feeling so desperate. Sounds like you have a lot going on. Have you spoken to a professional? If not it would be a good time to consult with one.

Hopefully you'll get more suggestions on PC. I'm sure there are plenty of others that can relate.

I can relate to some of the things you mentioned and it can be tough when you feel like no one understands. I am sorry things are so difficult right now.

I know exactly how you feel! Seriously though, I'm 22 and still live at home. I hate myself and what I see in the mirror. I have few friends and no social life. Meanwhile my sister is off living with her boyfriend and my brother is living his own life in Colorado. It's tough to feel so dependent on family when other people are actually moving forward.

But this is our path I suppose.i had to move home because bipolar reared its big ugly head at my first year in college, causing the university to force me into a leave of absence. Then I got caught up in self medicating, self harm got worse, and I ended up hospitalized twice. The most embarrassing thing after that was the removal of all sharp objects from my room, and my parents acting like my personal pharmacy handing out my meds morning and night. It's rough, but this is the only way I was able to stay alive, do my work, and graduate. While that's the better large picture, I am now at the point where my isolation has really become apparent. That was actually one of the reasons I joined here..to make friends of some sort haha!

Essentially I know how you feel, so if you want to talk feel free to pm me. Stay safe

I'm really sorry to hear you're hurting so badly. I used to be a carver myself. Still get the urges when I'm really stressed. What helped me was going from carving, which breaks the skin obviously, to pinching initially, then a friend recommended I draw something pretty where I'd have carved, or to draw something, colour in, etc instead of pinching. Distract with positive things. As far as the home situation, many period live with their parents into their late 20s, even into their 30s. So try to take no shame from that. If you want to move out, work on small goals. I like writing plans, breaking things down into steps. It makes something big and daunting much easier to handle. You can change anything you want to about yourself. You just need to take small steps. And fwiw, overweight people are still very lovable. It's your nature purple will love, every time, not your exterior. Chin up. Tomorrow can always be an amazing day.
