Advice would be nice

Advice would be nice

Hi. I turned 24 last week and I have been reflecting on life. In many ways I feel like a failure I've never had a relationship, I have few friends and I generally just feel like my life isn't going anywhere. I moved last year for a new job half way across the country from home and it has been a struggle. I feel like I will never find someone special.

I have Aspergers (I've known this since I was a child) and this year I have been told I have Bipolar (they didn't tell me what type I have). I generally just feel like a social misfit and I often feel lonely. I have very few people I can confine in. My family doesn't know about my mental health problems because of their denial and unhelpful attitude towards people with MI.

Yeah Hamsolo01 it can be hard, people do make assumptions when you have been single for so long.
