Thanks for your reply. I can relate to childhood experiences that caused trauma resulting in the present mental conditions.... I think in my case it mainly has to do with my brother. I always felt rejected by him and his group of friends. I never built up my own group of friends, I never had anyone that was truly close to me, not even my parents (after a certain number of years). I will work on this as much as I can... I don't wanna be depressed when I see my family for the holidays
