No girl would ever go out with me

Yeah well the individual seems quite vulnerable to me and i'm uncomfortable with everyone picking on him.

I said he'd get exactly what he wants. Which is to be a bum, etc, etc. because he refuses t make an attempt.

he says he needs help
he says he gets gov't. support to live on

and then says he has no money for mental health care
it stands to reason he's qualify for medicaid and if not all state MHMR services will see him
oh yeah, I forgot, he doesn't need medication. (he says) he is too depressed to bathe for months at a time, he won't leave the house and wants to die...... I think that qualifies for medical treatment.....

no one's asking him to pull himself up by his bootstraps, rather....take small steps by bathing and taking a walk to the store to buy a rat trap or make a call to social services.
these litle things can be empowering and encouraging because he would realize he does have the power within himself to control some of his life and not be a victim of his own negativity

It doesn't matter how depressed he is, of all the problems he mentioned, bathing is the easiest to fix. One step at a time and all...

I didn't come from an affluent background either, I could have gone straight to benefits and reclusivness like my mother but wanted better so worked to it. I don't have everything I want sorted as it can't all be done at once, which is why I don't look at it as one problem as MR20 seems to.

After I beat a game I trade them in for money for other games. I only have a few amount of games at a certain time.

then that's your decision, you don't have to change what you like to be accepted, I have far stranger hobbies and have found friends
you want an instant fix, people to jump to you and worship the ground you walk on because you feel you deserve it
people like you are poison, or psychic vampires, as wiccans call you

Psychic vampire! Oh boy

One of the reasons I've grown to hate people is even though they knew something was wrong with me and they still treated me like crap.

It's pretty obvious somethings wrong when you're 13-16 and are hanging out with people 4-5 years younger than you to play yu-gi-oh and video games. I even got bullied by them. Occasionally their older brothers used to have them punch, kick and throw things at me. They used to threaten if I laid a hand on them while they were doing it, the older brother/relative would beat the s**t out of me. I of course stood there and took it because I thought they were my friends and these were the only people that would hang out with me.

Then when I got to age 17-18, I started hanging out with people my age. Like I said on the last page, it was a disaster. They mocked and bullied me constantly. On one occasion, a "friend" of mine threw a cup of piss on me. They rejected and shunned when it time to go somewhere because they didn't want to be seen with me in public.

Those POS treated me that way even though they something was wrong with me and was just trying my best to make friends. I hate them.

You're right about that....though as someone with chronic depression I know it is possible to shower..but sometimes I have to force myself to because I just really don't feel like it I can easily go a week without a single shower I try not to do that however. I don't think everyone realises that some things like chronic depression can make the simpelist of tasks very difficult.

I think a number of us understand but it's hard to see people who don't even seem to want to help themselves.
I find it difficult to see people in a slump who don't choose to help themselves.

I probably shouldn't contribute to threads like this at all. Some people need a sharp kick to help themselves or just information and help, but the OP seems to want neither.

Well, that explains that.

Nothing further to add to the discussion, I can't be bothered to join in again.

Sadly you're talking about a group of immature and probably uneducated teenagers. And guess what, for the most part those kids are a**holes. The group you feel in with were def. a**holes.

If at your current age you were to try again..... bathe, go to an Aspie support group or even go for GED classes, I'm fairly convinced you'd find things better. The big things to getting along with adults is being clean and polite. Once someone reaches a certain maturity level...they don't care if you look like a super model or are a brain surgeon, they look at what's in the inside.

I'm sure there are support groups for Aspergers or Autism and those would be great as you'd meet others dealing with the same issues AND they'd expect you to be a little different. Just be clean and polite.

Adults going for GED classes are not there to be in a clique, they are there to learn. I doubt you'd be hrrassed...... just be clean and polite.

and to be clear, I don't think you deserved that treatment. You met a bunch of jerks. They were the problem not you. Recognize that simple fact and make another effort with adults.

I know for a fact that there are no Aspergers/Autism groups were I live as we've been searching ever since I was DX'd at age twelve. We don't have the money/transportation to go outside the county/city regularly for one. Believe or not, the first time I've talked to an aspie in my life was on this site.

Also what type of people are in GED classes? They're in there because they didn't graduated from HS which makes them uneducated, and most of them are around my age and probably younger. They will probably be immature and thuggish, especially around these parts of town.

What's to stop them from treating me like other people did? Once they realize how weak, slow, naive, and vulnerable I am, what's going to keep them from faking friends with me and trying to use me for my stuff and/or stealing from me?

It's happen before, numerous times. I have huge trust issues with people as of result.

Well put and I agree. The stupidist comments are those claiming MR20 is 'trolling'.

To me, someone who writes as well as this is intelligent - and cannot be "dumb"!

It's very hard to resist noting the fact that you misspelled "stupidest".

I know (well I know now! (or is it 'I now know'?!)), and while I was writing it I was even thinking in the back of my mind 'stupidist' (sic) is that a valid word? I give myself a
