I have nobody in life...

Well OliverB, I got lucky and met my wife on a website for the mentally ill. Welcome to nolongerlonely.com You can also hang out here at the forums. I've met many good friends here. Another suggestion is for you to join a book discussion group. You can get information about them at your local library. How about volunteer work? My wife and I are just getting into volunteering at the local animal shelter helping walk the dogs. I guess what I'm saying is that there are many opportunities to meet new people... you just have to open the door. I hope this helps! Good luck!

I also came from a very dysfunctional childhood... I'm in the process of going through therapy to confront it. Very wise to remove yourself from the situation. Many people struggle to find the strength to do that. It's VERY difficult!!! Good luck....

Oliver,I cope with loneliness too,my family have abused me all my life,my sister tried to drive me to suicide many times over many years.I see my mother and niece occasionally,it is very complicated.I am mostly alone,and home a lot,I need to make new friends and build a support network.I am here every day and will support you and be friends with you if you like.I know what it is like to be ill and alone.

My niece likes anime and I am getting into it I bought a couple of films to watch I haven't seen them yet.Spirited Away and The Girl Who Travelled Through Time.
