Is it always going to be this way ?

So here is my tale of woe. I'm in my late 30's, single and have zero friends. I have not been in a real relationship since I was 20 years old. I don't know how to relate to people. I make what turns out to be bad decisions that have hurt others around me. I sit at my laptop each night and want to connect to people. I want someone to care about me and tell me that I am worth the effort to visit my house. Even my own family don't even bother. For the last 18 months I have been sliding backwards into a puddle of go. I was passionate about things and felt the fire in my belly. Now I can't even concentrate on something long enough to feel anything. I want to work in an industry that requires empathy but I look at people and feel nothing. Is it always going to be like this ?

Hi Gg

I'm very sorry to hear about how your feeling this way. I felt very alone when i was going through a ruff time and it is not a nice feeling. But you have taken a very important step in reaching out on here because there are so many way's in which you can be helped. I would suggest seeing a professional psychologist you can get a referral from your GP and in some cases it can be free.

they can help you work out some of your problems and give you ways to reach out to people. I know things seem helpless now but they never stay the same you will improve and get better. 

i just know it
