Not okay

I am struggling.


I feel like I have no friends because the ones I have don't treat me right. They cancel plans on me, talk about me behind my back, and never try to help me when I have a problem, or to reach out.


I feel like I have no purpose in life. 


I don't even get along with my family very well.


I just don't see it getting better.

Many people so- called friends are just people they hang around. True friends are hard to find. Keep talking to people. Keep looking for true friends. You can find a coach to help you. There are free mentoring online.
Life have no purpose. Human need to find purpose because we have a cortex. Our large brain. We try to find meaning in a world that has no meaning. There are religeions help people find purpose.
Alot of people do not get along with their family. If you have relationships problems, you should find a psychologist.

I agree with what Peter is saying. People can be cruel. It's very hard to find a true friend. Same with family. I think that's why a lot of us are on this site. Would write more but too tired right now. Please feel free to message me anytime. I can be your friend on here. HUGS. Try to take care of yourself the best you can. Eat well, get good sleep. Do some deep breathing. We'll get through this.

I've been hurt so many time by "friends". And I'm very different than the rest of my family, so I don't have much in common w/them.
I wish people weren't so mean. I talk to a counselor every week and she keeps pushing me to treat the situation differently, to ignore it.
Way easier said than done, especially w/mean and spiteful people, it's too hard to ignore. Like Anna above. I can be your friend too, I understand.

I am sorry about the people that aren't so nice. You can message me if you need to talk.

Is this your feelings or knowing they are talking bad behind your back? Are they always canceling or are you feeling this right now and in a down spell? I'm sure sorry you are feeling this way, or people aren't treating you right. Definitely find new friends, ones that are real and have integrity. You are worth being treated right, and you are a treasure. Don't let people treat you wrong. If it is a feeling you have that isn't proven, maybe talk to a counselor and find out why you are feeling mistreated. Some things that help people have a better mind focus are taking good multi vitamins with extra B Complex and magnesium and also taking ginseng. They all will heal your nerves, change your focus and calm your mind and body. It's good you four Daily Strength, and support, hang in there, dear, you are worth loving! it all starts with self love, so you know what is right. <3
