Shawn Said:

I feel so left behind in life at nearly 31- what do i do?

We Answered:

Read "I Don't Want To Talk About It" by Terrence Real; it's about male depression and it's very good.

Find individual therapy for free; it's out there if you really look. I live in the U.S. but I counsel people from the community for free at my University's counseling center. Check schools in your area to see if any psychology training programs have free therapy.

You're still young. You can study something and have a career. It's not too late. I'm really sorry for what happened to you, but you have a new opportunity here to actually do something for yourself, go for your dreams, and NOT let your past prevent you from succeeding in your future. Make a plan, research how you can implement it, and then go for it. Don't let what you experienced cause you to stop engaging in life.

Don't try too hard with people to make friends; in other words, don't try to be someone you are not. Look for kind, nice people and start friendships slow. I think you can do it.

Good luck.

I'd put it down to self hate -it could be you are not just a victim of labels,bullying and poor upbringing,but also-you play a part in perpetuating the notion that you are 'crap',which takes you to remembering only the horrid times. -that when young,you had no ability to sort out.None of us could have when young.

be livethough you belive in the diagnoses,it should not be used as your stick,to beat up yourself up with.

It's a great injustice to your psche and ego to have these patterns of desperation that can re-boot you to lousy default settings-as it's not your vitus,so to speak,it's real life situation that needs CBT and DBT,to help you challenge 'auto negativity'
I'm sure you have the intel to improve your life.
