i have such a boring life

I really don't know what to do and i have no one to talk to. so i figured maybe posting another thread might help. I'm currently on my long school holiday that lasts around 2 months, and I've literally done NOTHING but lay in bed and watch TV series on my laptop. Or if i'm not doing that, I'm scrolling though my phone looking at all my friends go out and have fun with their lives. Firstly, my "friends" and i are drifting apart and are going through an extremely rough patch so i really have no one to talk to or hang out with. My mum isn't very social and doesn't go out AT ALL, which impacts me a lot. And even if i just want to go to the beach or just go out, my mum always ends up saying no. It's just me and my mum at home and we don't have any money to go out or do anything. Not even enough to go parties. I thought this year would be fun for once. I mean i got invited to two birthday parties that are in February. But because we have no money, i was forced to lie and decline both of them. Iv'e already searched google about what to do if you're in a situation like me. But none of the websites have helped me. I just don't know what to do. I feel like I'm just wasting my life. Throughout all my life, it's always been like this. I've already wasted these holidays and I've already wasted 14 years of my life. Like i'm so fed up with this, that it's gotten to the point that i actually cry every time i think about how sad and boring my life is and because of how helpless and miserable i am. Advice or some kind words would be nice. Thank you in advance.

You don't have to have money to go to a birthday party. Presents? It is easy to buy something, but the most treasured are those that people took the time and care to make by hand. RSVP a second time and go to the party. Those people invited you because they like you, and they want to share their day with you, not because you might bring them a present.

hello Idek, I'm sorry to read what you have told us, but how about trying to get a part time job at any supermarket to begin with, they always want to employ young kids because it's cheaper for them to do so, and by doing this will give you some confidence being in public life. Geoff.

Peaceful morning Idek,

I must say, I here you.

Life is extremely hard for many people.

Money is not the answer to true happiness.

In extremely hard times in my life, I look for the smallest blessing and cherish them.

I'm a father of a 9 yr old boy. 41yrs old myself.

Suffer with mental illness and don't get out much too.

I always worry about the impact it has on my son.

I teach him to find happiness within himself because thats where happiness comes from.

I have time to share my beliefs with you, if you like.

Feel free to ask any question.

Life is what we make of it.

Peace

Matt.

Hi Idek

There is some great advice above...Matt Geoff & SB

I have had anxiety for a very long time and I used to worry about my daughter because I didnt take her out as much as I wanted but with anxiety/depression it can be hard to do.

I worked part time selling jeans and had spare cash when I was young...it was a huge help.

You dont have to flat out busy at all...like Geoff said....grab a part time job meet some people and earn some money all at the same time. It will enhance your life

my best

Paul
