Hi Shakepurmake,

I hope things aren't truly as hopeless as they sound for you. I hope you have friends or support people that you can lean on. I know, from personal experience that family can sometimes be the least supportive. I also know that it hurts the most to fail to get support from them. Thank goodness for friends.

Well I wouldnt say you couldnt do anything right....

You came on here looking for help, and if you ask me, that was the right thing to do.

Have you been diagnosed with either ADD or depression?

And if not, go to your GP or your phycologist and look into getting dxed.

Do not worry about what other people say that get you down, you know what is wrong with you, and there is no shame in seeking help for your problems.

yes... ignore your family in this case and act on yourself, go to psychologist without let them know...
I do that with some aspect of my life...
Actually you are lucky that your family dont believe in your problem. I have my family said believe in my problem but act the opposing. "your problem is not reason that you are/you do &)#$%&*)#%#!" happened times to times :(

Your not alone on that boat mate, dont worry about it, they just don't know how to deal with it, I'm in the same situation, just don't let it get ya down, which I know is hard sometimes, but hey what your going through is real and if they choose not to believe you is because they're are arrogant and are just making excuses because its to difficult for them to deal with, well thats my opinion anyways, just when you see your doc have a chat 2 him about it.

My family doesn't get it either. Don't let them get to you. I don't believe that you never do anything right. For example: In your post, your spelling was correct. You did that right! (I can't spell very well at all.) I suspect that you have many talents and abilities, and while you probably also suck at other things, nobody is good at everything. Try focusing on what you enjoy and are good at for awhile, it really does help. I hope that you are able to see someone and get some help, if you haven't already done so.

You should look into DBT, I think that you would get a lot from that program based on your post.
