Painting and drawing/ being creative is what has given my life meaning in the past, I don't know about the future.

What prevents me? The deep shame. Some people manage to breake out of it somehow, I don't think that gives anyone the right to judge those who don't.

I have always liked being alone, but there is a limit of course. I'm going to try and be more conscious about what advice I give to people in simular situation, so that I'm not a hypocrite.

Good advice, and you're not a hypocrite.
I'm sorry that the BBC feature was depressing for you. Maybe I shouldn't have posted it in this thread. The story could have focused more on the inspirational side.
