Hey. No worries you can be my friend!

I know how difficult it can be...Unfortunately, even in AA sometimes people form their own little cliques like in HS.

Hang in there. Also, sometimes it can be our addiction that is causing us to feel like others are ignoring us. The important thing is to not give up. Not all personalities mesh. Not everyone is nice. But there are friendly people out there too. Just keep being yourself and you will attract others like you. Learn to become your own best friend. That will attract others too.

I struggled with friendships my whole life. Especially because of my Bipolar disorder I tend to isolate myself when I feel down when I should be doing the exact opposite. Just keep putting yourself out there.

Today they spoke of humility. I am working on self confidence. Very confused. Friendless depressed and overwelmed.
