Just joined.very lonely, stuck in life due to problems

[PATRYN HOPE]

JUST JOINED LOOKING FOR ANY HELP OR MORE.
I SUFFER FROM EMETOPHOBIA / OSTEOPROSIS / GASTROPARESIS WHICH HAS RESULTED IN NO SOICAL LIFE. WAS BULLIED VERY BADLEY AT SECONDARY SCHOOL AND WAS TAKEN OUT IN THE LAST YEAR FOR HOME TUTORING. BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE NO FRIENDS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A GIRLFRIEND. SINCE THEN DEVELPOED THE ABOVE PROBLEMS AND NOT BEEN CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO GO OUT VERY MUCH. IAM 29 NOW AND RELISING JUST HOW LONELY IAM AND TIME IS PRESSING ON. KEEP REFLECTING BACK TO LIFE WHEN I WAS I KID WHEN I HAD A FRIEND AND WAS ALOT MORE NORMAL AND HAPPY AND IT MAKES ME FEEL VERY SAD.

ANY HELP OR ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT.
I KNOW THIS SHOULD COME UNDER LIKE PHOBIAS OR DEPREESION BUT LIKE MY GP SAID TO ME, ONE PROBLEM IS CAUSING ANOTHER
AND AT THE MOMENT ITS THE SOICAL THATS GETTING ME DOWN.
