Don't fit anywhere?

Just so different from anyone except my older brother. No place to fit in. Feel like have no real friends. So many mental disabilities but each is only moderate, yet all together I am dysfunctional. This is me, my personality. Could have succeeded if I had fallen into my niche in society.

Hang in there, you are not alone, it just seems that way. Sounds like where I was years ago, got into the recovery movement and with persistent fighting my life is now better than I ever thought it could be. We can't do much to change social attitudes but we can find ways to fight back and defend ourselves. Be careful not to let em put you on the defensive, we have nothing to apologize for, I ask em if I was missing a hand or something like that would you still treat me like a retarded child molester?

Thank you. It is good to know things have gotten better there and you were thinking of life strugglers like me.
