Worst B-Day of my life

I just don't know what happened to my life, everything seemed so good a few years ago. I turned 24 today but I'm alone, most of the time I amass a ton of b-day wishes on FB but I've avoided it for a good 6 months mostly and today I checked and I've had 2 happy b-days. I fell outta of the shower today, I needed to wash clothes and my washing machine is broke now and it's friday night, everybody says I'm so good looking but I feel like trash. I should be out having fun, gettin drunk with friends but nowadays there is absolutely nobody to do that with. I'm just going to be alone all day and I just wish I never got hit with this SAD. I feel like I once had it all and now I'm just a shell of what I used to be. I'm sorry I just had to vent, I hope you all are doing better than I am and god bless.

Sorry you didn't have a good bithday :( I'm sure you will have better and great birthdays to come. My birthday sucked too just letting you know so your not alone. I actually tried inviting a few people over since it was my 21st and they all bailed at the last moment. The only person who came was my new boyfriend and I was trying to show him I had friends but it failed and I felt terrible. It got better though. Don't put too much weight on your birthday. Who is "everyone" ask them to hang out with you. It's Fall so there's a lot to do.

Happy Birthday! : D So now that's 3 maybe more by now or to come :)

I know what its like to have a bad birthday experience. I loathe my birthdays more and more as the years past. SAD is terrible. You're 24 years old and that's still pretty young. I think your life (and perhaps my own) can still turn out for the better if you work at it.

Happy Birthday. :) - That's 4.

Oh my god, I can so relate. I too didn't always have SA. I also find myself wishing this never happened to me. I sometimes feel like I can't live up to the person I used to be; confident, extroverted, abundant with friends. I've learnt to accept myself for the shy (but sweet!) girl that I am now and have learnt to be happy with myself. Happy birthday, for what it's worth. You can be even better than you were before, this experience will make you stronger in the long run. I'm here if you ever wanna chat :)

What's crazy is what you just described happens to so many guys on here. We have friends and then we get to about 23 or 24 yrs old and voila....the friends are all gone.

I had the same thing happen to me. I guess it didn't only happen, I let it happen in a way because I did choose to stop contacting them. Still, I wish I hadn't and I'm kind of glad I did. Ugh, it's tough.

So many of my friends don't even live in my city anymore, and the ones that do are either guys that I don't connect with on a friend level or just shady guys that could get me thrown in jail.

I've just learned to stop caring about birthdays, they are just a day to me. I mean we have like 70+ of them, most of us will.

It's gotten to a point where I'm considering going to bars by myself and trying to somehow meet people. I used to think that was crazy.

Thank you all your words make me feel much better to know were all not alone struggling. Anyways, after this rant I decided to try my best not to care that it was my birthday and treat it like any other day and was able to have a good time, I got 2 little nieces that had come over who made me homemade birthday cards and was like, who needs those old friends when I got family who is happy just for me to be around? So Thank you and Thank you all again, I'm here for any of ya'll if you need me too.

Happy belated birthday, man.

I'm sorry you didn't have a good time that day, but I'm glad you are feeling better now.

I hate birthdays as well. From the time I was a young girl I never had friends celebrating my birthdays with me (or rather lack of friends to celebrate with). Now in adulthood nothing has changed I just wish the day would pass quietly but family always insist on prolonging the pain by having birthday dinners. So its year in year out dinners with family. Swell. I hate birthdays.

We should have a birthday thread or something where all of us can wish eachother happy birthday without intruding in on eachothers lives. This thread literally did make me feel better last week.
