My family and I decided that it would be best for me to move to a different state and give this whole "productive member of society" thing one last go. I'm 26. My parents are supporting me until I can support myself. I've been here for 2 months, no job, but I may get a part-time gig soon through the place where I go for therapy and meds.
I'm socially isolated. I want to go to church, but I'm so socially awkward and nervous all the time. Plus, what do I say when they ask me "what do you do?" Ummm...nothing. I chill out, look for work, and post on psycho-babble. What brings you to this town? Well, I screwed up everywhere else I've lived, so this place seemed good enough. Besides, I went to rehab here at a place in town...
The few people I do know are through the rehab place I went last year. They're not the best people, and I'm trying to dodge all their phone calls at the moment.
I should be excited. I am sometimes excited. I get to start over in a place where very few people know me. Maybe by the time I'm 30 I'll be a functioning member of society.
I just feel like such a loser at the moment.
