Welcome. I really don't have any friends in real life, either, and I feel my family to be total strangers with whom I have nothing in common...

Sounds like it's the ADHD that may be causing a lot of your issues with friendships (the "I get attached to everyone" is what makes me think this - sounds similiar to what I've read in regards to ADHD, that they often are too intense in a relationship).... I'm not one to generally jump on the "cure it" path, but have you looked into meds for the hyperactivity? Let the flaming commence :P

it really is oki probly am very intense with who ever i start liking its mainly because of how insercure i am and how much bad luck i go through but i mean with me i have such intense emotional problems that i thought others would be able to level with me and understand,i would have never believed that half the world are afraid of the truth and cower behind there emotions when they meet someone that really has gone through so much of the same



i mean yea alot of people just act like they have had problems to feel like there fitting in and etc but i thought maybe out of my intire state of louisiana there would be one girl that i could connect with and we would really see eye to eye and be honest in the fact that mine and her problems could be more like fate meeting to help each other
