i just don't have anyone to talk to apart from dp and dd who is only 10 months. i haven't had a real group of friends in many years, perhaps i'm just totally unlikeable. i'm pretty depressed at the best of times, on ad's and going to group counselling but it doesn't seem to help. i just mess things up for myself, i'm shy and maybe even a bit socially phobic. can't seem to talk to people so i avoid as many social situations as i can. i just feel i can't go on being this lonely and i miss the groups of friends i had in the past who used to get me through the bad times but i alienated all of them a long time ago. i'm 25 now and after i left school i started getting stoned a lot when my then boyfriend, which just messed up my head and made me so paranoid i thought all my friends were bitching and back stabbing which many years on i realise i was just totally wrong about. but its like i can't get over it and move on and meet new people cos of the stuff that happened back then. plus i'm stuck at home with dd most of the time. i just don't want her to turn out like me, i want her to be popular and know loads of local kids as she grows up. what can i do?
