It’s a long story but I’m currently out of work and trying to deal with emotional\mental health issues and living at home with my parents. I think I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t want a relationship (at present) but feel as though I need to be surrounded by encouraging and supportive people to help me feel at ease with myself. My family don’t really fit this description and in a lot of ways add to my distress. I have gone past the point where I can talk to them about this and I realise they are very set in their ways and can’t change that. I just wondered if anyone knows of a group or type of community I could join to help build my confidence, get me back to normality, help me enjoy life, help me love myself and not be so scared of everything? Almost like an adoptive family? I’ve tried googling but not found much that fits this description but that’s what I feel I need, people who are going to look out for my best interests because I’m very vulnerable at the moment.

Thank you
