I can't really relate to anyone or anything.

I've just learned to come to terms with the fact that I've always been an outcast. I've never had any positive role models growing up, I've never really had anyone that can take my issues seriously, and I guess that's just how the world is. Unfair.

I get that my conditions have limitations, and there's not a whole lot the neurotypical world can offer.

Everytime I try to talk to someone, it almost always fails. Everytime I want to get close to someone, it almost always fails.

I really don't know what to do with myself.

I try to help the less fortunate. If they get greedy I stop helping them.

These days I contribute to the neighborhood by growing flowers in my front yard, so people can see them when commuting to and from work. And see them when they take walks for exercise

If you're still in school, find some sort of club or group geared towards atypical people. If not, maybe you could use forums like this to form connections with others while you look for social activities and groups in your town.

What are you interested in, Abhma?

That's how you relate to people. You tell them your interests. And you listen when they tell you their interests.

That's how you have to do it. There's no other way.
