Have you considered joining a youth group? Or perhaps an online group that shares similar interests to you? May help you connect and feel a little less lonely. I hope you feel better <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":red_heart:">❤️</span></P> Wed, 22 Mar 2023 10:59:13 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/suicidal-thoughts-and-self-harm/my-life/m-p/561586#M48150 r3410 2023-03-22T10:59:13Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/suicidal-thoughts-and-self-harm/my-life/m-p/561678#M48159 <P>It’s hard to me to join to anything because I’m shy, and with my ugly attitude it won’t help either.
