Sending you a hug.

Really, Jesus wasn’t appreciated by so many.
He was sometimes bullied by questions from religious leaders who wanted to catch Him out.
He wept over Jerusalem, over His own nation, because they wouldn’t listen to Him and also hadn’t heeded the prophets,
He was betrayed by His own constant companions of 2 - 3 years, because they were only thinking of their own safety … at the time when He needed them most, during His arrest, flogging ond torture, and in the torment of crucifixion ( except John and the women)
In the Garden when He appealed for prayer and company, His three closest companions just went to sleep.

One of His companions betrayed Him to this torture and death, despite His goodness, His teaching of love, His miracles.

Bullied and betrayed, He still forgave, but His suffering was terrible.
Jesus understands. Walk with Him, talk with Him, rest your head against His heart.

His Mother saw it all, felt it all, her mind and heart ached with grief.
She also understands your isolation, hurt, and brokenness, so seek her intercession.

His Mother’s intercession meant so much to Him that He capitulated to her request at the Wedding Feast of Cana.
He said it wasn’t yet time for signs or miracles, but because she expressed her concern for the wedding hosts, not wanting them to be caught short of wine, losing face in the Jewish community, He worked the miracle and changed water to wine.

Be patient and kind to yourself and others (Jesus says we must love others as ourselves, which implies the need for a just love of ourselves)
And give yourself time.

I was once an extraordinarily shy and awkward person myself, and yes there were some really tough things in my life and I was often misunderstood.

There’s hope even though it might not feel like that.

The best way to make friends is volunteering and helping others. While you are with a group helping others, you talk and get to know new people and make new friends. If you like animals, people are always needed to help socialize the dogs and cats so they will be more easily adopted. The dogs need to be walked and exercised. If you like cooking/kitchen type stuff, there is always a need in places that feed the homeless and hungry. Clothes closets/thrift shops that help the needy always need people to sort the clothes or lift the heavier stuff. (I don’t know if you are a guy or a girl). Stop into a nursing home! Just walk in and introduce yourself to the staff and ask if there might be a person or two that could use a friend. Forget yourself and just try to make a difference in another person’s life. So many people in nursing homes have been forgotten by their families, or all their friends have died, they pretty much are feeling like you do, so you would understand very well what they are feeling and how a big smile from you would make both of you feel wanted, loved and needed. Do you like the outdoors? There are groups that help beautify their towns. Do you like historical places? They usually need people as docents or help in their gift shops on weekends. Do you want to learn a new hobby? Take a class or join a group that is interested in the same thing you are. There are tons of ways to meet new people, you just have to get yourself out there. Be friendly and open and DO IT even if it scares you or feels weird. You have to start somewhere.

I will pray for you.

Blessed Mother, please intercede for us.
Hold the sorrowful-
Mother and love the weary, abused, neglected
or forgotten among us-
Give your aid to all needing help or healing-
Assist those who are sick, in pain or suffering-
Be with those needing peace-
Console the lonely or brokenhearted-
Comfort the lost or hopeless-
Strengthen the fearful-
Guard the unborn-
Pray for those who are dying or who have died-
Soften those with hardened hearts-
Enlighten those who do not yet see truth-
Help us be brave enough to let our hurt and anger go-
Show us the way to do the right thing-
Protect those who are in danger, and
Guide us from every evil.
May all who keep your sacred commemoration
experience the might of your assistance.
Amen

I can understand how you feel because my son has been the target of bullies. It can break you. It has taken our family to the brink of despair.

My suggestion is going to Adoration and sitting with Christ and listen to what He says to you. This may not happen right away, but He has a plan for you. It may not be what you like, unfortunately.

When my son or I heart, I offer up my suffering to the souls in purgatory. That way, I feel my earthly pain is doing some good. Please be assured of my prayers. God bless.

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Listen to Trishies wonderful words

Our Blessed Mother can be extremely consoling if you pray for her intercession - and as others have said above - all of the saints are terrific to request intercession from! And your guardian angel is beside you every step of the way, too. I’ve found that, although praying for those who upset me can be very difficult, it can also have wonderful results. Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers, too!
