Introverted and struggling to find a job—any advice?

I honestly can't follow you there.

How am I supposed to "get out there" when I clearly don't have the social toolkit for it? It feels like I'm just forcing myself into situations where I end up leaving everyone else feeling confused or, honestly, just hurt by how I act.

Well, I suppose the first step is just looking for help. You probably ought to start by finding a decent diagnostician.

I've actually looked for professional help before, but nobody could actually help me. 🙂

I saw this one specialist who basically wrecked me with side effects from all the pills she put me on.
And years ago, I went to a psychotherapist in Miami—who was the one who referred me to that lady—and it was useless.

Psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists... none of them can help me. 😁

Just make sure they're Mexican, though. For sure.

Excuses are forever... but then again, Tony would say

Hey, are your messages actually going through?

Right after I graduated from Split High School,
a few girls from my class added me on Facebook and just...
went straight for the throat. Verbally.
I still have zero clue what I did to deserve it.
🙂 So, I decided to give them a taste of their own medicine. Naturally, I ended up looking like the villain and they played the victims.

One of them has diabetes—which, honestly, nothing to do with this, but whatever—but she’s pretty. Another one grew up without parents, but hey, she's smart and has a kid.

To this day, I am still scratching my head over why they felt the need to attack me on social media.
Weird.

Because you can't even get your messages to send properly

First things first—look for professional help. A few people on here have already suggested it, and while you keep brushing them off, it really is the only way to handle this properly.

That tendency to push back against everyone and everything is likely what’s causing these situations—where it feels like you're being rejected or attacked when it isn't actually the case. Seriously, please try to find some real support!
