I feel like a failure. I'm 17. This isn't one of those situations where I'm a typical teen that goes to school and is learning how to drive (which I AM learning how to drive, but its been taking forever,) but I got pulled out of school around 3rd grade. Was in learning groups of some kind for a few years, moved, covid hit, and now I'm... this. I'm off-putting. I never go out. I'm a shut in. I'm unpleasant to be around. I want to be kinder, to be better. To be normal. Doesn't help that I'm trans, either. Makes me stick out more. I am most certainly not intelligent enough to get a job, and this economy, this job market, is only making it harder.
Well, you dont have to be trans so there's one issue solved. As far as the rest, you know the issues that are keeping you separated, why not slowly work on those ? Go out more, learn social skills, be friendlier ? Just suggestions, I hope it helps bc Lord willing you have alot of life ahead of you, dont waste time on problems unless your working on resolving them. You only get 1 life, dont waste it
Hey, from one trans person to another: we’re in this together. Focus on yourself. When it gets stable, you’ll be able to socialise.
