		<description>We have been conditioned since childhood to &quot;let loose&quot; on weekends and also we were allowed to stay up and then there are all of those hit songs about the weekends. But guess what? the fact that you feel that way shows that you are not as out of touch with the &quot;norm&quot; in society as you think- you still have that inner clock (or in this case, calendar) that will help you condition yourself for a school or work week should the oppurtunity to do such arise.

sometimes i don&#039;t know what day it is, i have been free for too long, undisciplined and quite lost because of it. it makes adapting really hard.

the part about distant cartoon avatars is deeply poetic and intense!!!</description>

		<description>you have direction. you have goals and aims. you say you want a computer job, and you have a computer, so look on the internet for online computer courses. that way, you don&#039;t even have to go out to get some training. then, with that training or qualification, you are on your way to getting a job, which will then earn the money needed to travel. you&#039;ve missed out on education in the past, but that doesn&#039;t mean you can&#039;t get education now.
you say you can&#039;t reach out to people because you&#039;ll be rejected - it&#039;s not definite that you&#039;ll be rejected - i haven&#039;t rejected you have i? so what makes you think others will? there&#039;s many people on here that are very keen on helping you, so i&#039;m sure they wouldn&#039;t reject you if you were to send them an email. you may be having problems with people on here because people keep giving you good advice, but you don&#039;t seem to be helping yourself that much - and things aren&#039;t going to get better unless you help yourself. they may be giving up on you because of that. PROVE THEM WRONG. show them that you have strength, which you do. you have helped yourself with regards to your aggression problems, so you need to do the same for your other problems. go against yourself and your fear - go out, even if it&#039;s just to the shop. smile at people who pass by, say hello perhaps. go out and meet people - go to clubs or something, or go to the local pub (though don&#039;t become an alcoholic) - if you meet people, and go out more regularly, people will recognise you, and you&#039;ll hopefully make friends. you want a wife - the only way you&#039;re going to meet a lady is by going out, so if you want to achieve that goal, then you have to make the effort to get out there and socialise.

with regards to the avatars, it&#039;s only an avatar. if it makes you feel better, change your avatar, so that you&#039;re there with a nice oceanic background. then every time you see that, look at it and say, &#039;i want to have that background, in real life. i&#039;m going to work to get there. i&#039;m not going to give up on my goal.&#039;
use it as a motive.

keep going, you will get there.</description>

		<description>F*ck, I&#039;m still young and not experienced enough to really give this answer alot of worth, but what the heck. I don&#039;t know how difficult it must be for you, I have no Idea at all, only vaguely, but I&#039;m not gonna share my problems. I would say the first step is just to ACCEPT yourself the way you are, love yourself, and be happy with who you are, wish that no one or nothing can change you, be proud of yourself. Of course you cant just magically do that, but just try as hard as you can. You will gain confidence.

You say you feel deserted and abandoned, I&#039;m no phsycology expert but I&#039;d say you feel as if thats where you belong because of you&#039;re condition, but there is a place for you in society.

I dont give a sh*t if you agree with me or not up to this point, but you have to just do this: Go outside and go to the supermarket, A bus stop, ANYWHERE. And engage in conversation with a complete stranger, if you&#039;re baffled as to how to start one, just bring up the current state of weather. That sh*t right there is a huge confidence builder, whenever I look down on myself I just randomly start conversation with everyone I see, and I begin to feel happy, confident. If your behaviour patterns start to kick in then apologize  and explain your condition, etc etc. If the person you&#039;re speaking to is right, you can have a deep convo with them NO MATTER if you struggle with social things like this.

Be comfortable with telling people about yourself, and your confidence will grow, you&#039;ll begin to love yourself and come out of that darkness.

Also, Laughter is the best medicine, you need to cheer yourself up and realize you can reach your goals, when you go and speak to random people, LAUGH, crack a joke, LAUGH at their jokes, it feels so good to laugh.
Basically, learn to love who you are and put your depressed past behind you, and the rest will follow. 

Hope this helped :S</description>
