My life is psychological torment

My life is psychological torment I feel so alone - no parents, no girlfriend, no friends. Every single time I try to talk to someone, I feel so anxious, much worse than I used to. I don’t fit in, I’m the odd one out, and people don’t seem to want to talk to me. All my attempts seem futile, and no matter what I do, nothing really helps. So, I end up hating myself for even trying for a couple of days, slitting my wrists, doing drugs to numb the pain and then the loneliness and a feeling of doom return, as if nothing matters and we’re all going to die eventually. Of course, having a speech impediment doesn’t mean you have to isolate yourself, but it forces you to isolate yourself. It’s a vicious cycle of pain and misery. I’m curious to know how you all cope with the pressure.
