Ok for the past 5 years i have been ive been living in a motel,along with my brother sister and mother.I am so very sad and frustrated.I feel like i have missed a part of life.I dont know what the feeling is like when your dad is holding you up. (My dad left me when i was just 3 years old). Ive always just wanted to have a chance to be a normal kid,to feel like i have a purpose in this world.To feel wanted.To be able to have friends instead of other teenagers teasing you and calling you dull and boring.So im asking you what should i do to restore this feeling back.

I wish I could help you! Try to stay up. you do have your whole life ahead of you. I had a terrible childhood and the thing that kept me going was telling myself that I would be an adult one day and would be able to make my own choices! I have been happier since i started prozac. so keep in mind that depression is real and caused by chemicals (serotonin). 2 people with the same life will respond differently to the same situation. I prayed alot as a child, my prayers weren't always answered but I'm 46 now and happy!Try to stay positive and dream of your future!

Hi volt28,

I'm sorry. I have no answers for you. Every night, I go to bed and close my eyes and wish that I could take away all the hurt in this world.

You'll be in my thoughts tonight and I hope knowing you are not alone gives you a bit of comfort.

No parent is perfect and sometimes it's better when they aren't there. Mine stayed married but my dad didn't exactly help me a lot (My Story)).

Just get out there and BE YOURSELF.

There is no NORMAL, there is only YOU.

You probably are dull and boring to the people who are teasing you. Those people are morons and they need moron friends.

You need to find some of those "dull and boring" friends to hang out with - try places you like (library?)...

You have my sympathy, although I have aspergers I have realised I had a pretty normal childhood friends and family, although my life seemed pretty terrible to me growing up, my own life has been pretty blessed and after talking to many people it has been real easy by comparison. All I can say is say is look to the future it can only get better, make the use of any talents you posses and compensate for any weaknesses you have. I truly hope things get better for you and your family, remember you are here for a reason find that and maybe your life will change.

If only I could teach you all I've learned about socializing. It took a while to learn but I'm good now. They all think I'm a geek but hey, we all have things to be ripped on for like being dumb, nerdy(me), skinny(me), fat, tall(me), short, native, ginger(me-ish), on drugs, drug free(me), etc.
Just whatever you do, don't get into drugs or alcohol and don't self-harm. It's been like 2 months and the addiction still bothers me and I wish I never started.
Take pride in being different and never give up.

awww.....im sorry

the best i can help you is to look on the good side of things,

for the part about bieng dull and boring, i would just say to express yourself as much as you can, if you think it, then say it, and be happy for yourself,

but most importantly of those rwo, EXPRESS YOURSELF COMPLETELY!! !

hope this helped....its based on my personal expirence

You have to clich'ed as it sounds is find something your passionate about, the whole " Live for something or die for nothing" im sure its something a lot of aspies know well!

I feel I missed out on so many memories , even now when im indoors and others are out with thier friends but now I've found my passion for working with kids I feel appreciated. So I think maybe sometimes to restore such feeling you have to perhaps go for the bold options in front of you whether its aspie penpals or volunteer work and do instead of just think about it.
