I feel old and lonely, what should I do?

Asked by dopeguru (1928points) October 30th, 2017 from iPhone

Im in my late 20s and I already feel like I’m dying next year. Possibly because society values youth and beauty more. Especially the media…. I feel like I’ll be partially dead by next year according to its standards. I mean, in a way I will be…

I feel absolutely alone. And I am. I don’t have any friends and don’t know how to make any. People terrify me. Its hard to know the ones who are rotten so I’d rather not hustle. Had a lot of bad friendship experiences in my life.

And no, I can not see a psychologist because where I currently live, its $100+ per session and I don’t have a job. That’s another thing. I am not making money. And I feel like a failure. A college graduate but nobody wants to pay me to do stuff.

But first two things I complained about are my primary cause of pain.

Do I really hustle and achieve what I want in order to feel okay about all this? Being famous has always been my main goal. Even random new people I meet tell me I have the aura of someone well known. I know this isn’t a great goal, but a lot of famous people were I read obsessed with being famous, and they got it.

Are these emotions normal? Have you felt anything similar?
