I'm 35
My Only IRL friend is moving away and neither of us drive due to a combination of MH issues and Meds.

She is the only Friend I have had IRL in 18 years.

We met in a psychiatric ward in 2008.

In year 7 at school I was bullied (Aged 11) So I refused to attend school therefore not actually developing any social skills.

I really don't know how to meet people and I am so desperate.

My last Locums advice was "to get out there and stop drinking" The guy is sodding clueless . Getting out in this town means drinking, there simply is nothing else to do , I'm too old for the youth club and too young to join a seniors club. The church does a cheap meal nigh every fortnight but the food is never veggie and I am. I have used up or been abandoned by every support network.

People cross the street to avoid me , I'm Large , 6"1 and X stone.

I'm getting thoughts about harming others but am reluctant to tell a MH worker as they would punish me.

I am pissed off . All . the . time.

I hate my life.

I hate Myself.
