This happened to me 15 years ago. I was naughty but funny and popular. I had a lot of female attention and I was very social. Anyway couple of set backs happened. One just a social one, an academic one and this girl I had been on and off with for years who I had mad feelings for just kind of fell apart. It broke me. Ended up with bipolar and although I don’t get depression I’m a lot more introverted now I guess. At first I couldn’t talk because I was so down and out but I did improve somewhat. I am functioning and have a fairly good life but I used to flourish socially. I don’t have the same sort of success now. It hurts when I am butt of the jokes or feel like bottom of the social hierarchy. Has this ever happened to anyone else?
