Is it normal to feel like you dont have a place in this world

im 23 year old women, single, no kids, mature, religous, down to earth* i know i have worth and things going for me, i dont drink, smoke, party or have any urge for this at 23, by choice! but i do alot of studying on random places/things/religions/human nature etc.. and i honestly feel so diffrent from everyone else! i understand i may have certain similiar human traits, but overall i feel i have no place in this world that everywhere if i was to go that place, it would be diffrent place but same thing!
any one have this feeling before?
did it get better or worse? and how did you cope with it?!

  • I feel exactly the same way!!!! I am 21 and straightedge. I just broke up with 2 boyfriends cause they did way too many drugs. But there are so many other factors that set me apart as well that I can't even think of one place that I would fit in. Seriously I have actually tried to think about it based on my beliefs and personality and yeah... Nowhere. It sucks feeling like that :( but at least I know that I am a very good, strong, confident person who knows better than most people.

  • You totally were describing me up until the point where you said that you don't think you have any place in this world. I personally make small changes to my situation from time to time but am confident that there is a place for me and am generally satisfied with where I am. If the place your in isn't working for you, then you should make some changes. Sometimes its fun to try some new things and try to describe a hypothetical ideal place for you. Then, you could try to get there.

  • It is normal to feel like this, but know that you definetley do have a place in this world, maybe you should get involved in something you've always wanted to do like, playing an instrument, or going someplace, maybe you just need to stop and think for a moment. we're all here for a reason, to don't get down on yourself you are 100% worthy=)

  • I feel the same way, 21, male, don't drink or party, i have no real friends, recently picked up smoking hookah, don't have any human conditions and aim to keep it that way, agnostic atheist, would make a very good satanist though. I feel and i know i'm different, like i was born in the wrong time, that i should have been borned in the future where humans are no longer humans and we've entered a new age of intelectual and "spiritual" superiority. Current society and the so called human condition disgust me, i'd like to cleanse the world and kill every weak, and "human" person in it and start and build up a new world anew with those who share the same vision with me.
    I don't think it's normal cause i don't think many people feels what you (we?) feel. Stay strong though

  • I have the same problem. I feel like an outsider ALWAYS. One day I had the opportunity to have my natal chart read to me(Something that I'm not sure if I believe. Kinda on the fence about astrology. Strictly do it for fun.), but it did say that I will never be satisfied, and that I will always feel like I don't belong.

    :(

    I hope its not true. Anyway, maybe you could talk with someone about it.

      • Thank you. I don't think you're creepy at all for looking. I was bored one night so I decided to just fill up the box a little. I know that most people wouldn't really care to look, and by how long it is it's doubtful they would read it, but I guess thats what boredom does to ya! But thanks for taking the time to look.

        :)
