Emotionally drained and not knowing what to do

Name change as I don’t want to be recognised from previously posts.

I’m 27 stuck leaving at home with parents and both till my new build is finally finished. It has been delayed 2 twice and I am expecting another delay.

I have no real friends and struggle to make new ones. I work from home and leave 2 hours away from the office so I won’t make any new ones there. I also struggle to move back the talking/ date stage after months and then all usually meet someone else pretty early soon or cheat when they’re meant to be exclusive.

I’m draining the life out of myself, I constantly feel down and inadequate. My friend hood friend died 2 weeks ago and left me feeling more lost than ever. In the middle of that the guy I was dating decided he didn’t want anything more but to be friends and then yesterday decided to start completely ignoring me.

I don’t know if some of this links to my contraceptive implant as since I’ve had it replaced my hormones feel like they’re in over drive

I think you need to change all this one piece at a time or it's overwhelming. Can you work somewhere closer to home? Or live somewhere closer to work?

Join a group, meet up or volunteer somewhere?

Bin off the flakey bloke and move on.

I'm sorry about your friend Thanks

I'm really sorry to hear about your friend. I think that now is a time to heal from your grief rather than take drastic action to change your life. Be kind to yourself, eat well, exercise and rest.

Do small things like speaking to your GP about by the implant. Think about what activities/hobbies you enjoy and do some research about local groups/classes. Do these things because they will be fun for you rather than any other reasons. And remember things don't stay the same, just because you feel sad and lost today, does not mean you will feel this way next week etc things can get better.

Living or leaving do you mean?
