I don't have any friends. Not a single one. Save for my insane, emotionally abusive ex, I haven't had a single friend since the end of high school, so we're going on 10+ years.

My self esteem is so low and my anxiety is so bad that I get nervous about the idea of having friends. It seems like more trouble and work than it's worth.

No, it's real. It's part of my horrible anxiety and panic issues. When I think about having friends, my mind immediately goes to things like them judging me or talking about me behind my back. Then I start to think about feeling obligated to hang out with them, remember stuff like birthdays, etc.

It doesn't sound fun.

I have like 2 close friends that I talk to pretty much every day. Like 50 people that I enjoy and hang out with socially rarely. I dont have the time or desire to have a lot of close people in my life. My wife and my close family members take up the majority of the energy that I have to devote to that.

Every "friend" I've made ended up being cruel to me, and some bad experiences involving my bullies literally circling my house and taunting me probably had a lot to do with it. These same bullies would then go around telling everyone how I wouldn't leave the house, despite me being afraid of them.

I can't afford any type of insurance, so I can't afford therapy. When things weren't as bad, financially, the only one I could afford was a janky local therapist who would use sessions to shill a yoga class and make awkward hip hop references.

I've tried everything. There's a local psychiatrist who pities me enough to have an appointment with me every few months at a price much lower than they usually demand, but every prescription I've been given either does nothing, or makes it worse. I was given Xanax and it had no effect on me.

It's just too many overlapping problems that unfortunately weren't acknowledged quick enough. :/

What meds? I mean if you feel like sharing that. Meds made me feel worse honestly. Now commercials even say antidepressants can increase suicidal thoughts in teens and young adults.

@Smackems
Damn I kinda feel the same way. I'm sure alcohol has taken a huge toll on my health. But the only time I had friends was when I was drinking this poison. At most I had 2-3 friends a time, so in that aspect I was far different from you. But sober? Rarely did I have a single one.

I've run out of options. My psychiatrist gave me some links to apply for Medicaid but the entire process was a trainwreck and even with Medicaid I can't afford therapy. Even if I could, the quality would be so low that it wouldn't be worth it.

I have no support system and there's no realistic way I can leave my toxic living situation.

I did lithium at first and it helped me, but eventually it stopped helping so they switched me to Prozac then a bunch of others I cant remember, but they only made things worse for me or made me feel terrible sadly.
