Title. Over the past 6 months, I've lost pretty much everyone and everything I cared about in my life. I'm 16, (turning 17 in 15 days) and for as long as I can remember, since I was 9 or 10, me and my family have been involved in some pretty intense family court stuff, along with some really nasty stuff along the way. I've been through stuff that I feel most kids/teenagers around me are fortunate enough to have not experienced. It had been my two siblings, my mother, and my two beloved dogs, and I was content with that. Now, it's just me, my brother, and my mother. I have 2 good friends, but they're in another city, each with their own problems and such. 

I can't even talk to people my age at school or in public, because no one can even relate to me in any way, or I always have to dodge personal questions, because my answers are never pleasant to hear about. I also am very critical and confused about kids my age. I don't understand the appeal behind social media (ESPECIALLY Tik-Tok) and all the seemingly dumb things kids do nowadays online, I don't understand why it's so hard for teenagers to give any amount of respect to adults, especially at school, or why they have to make a joke out of everything, or idolize literally the worst role-models online. It's so hard to even want to talk to people when they just seem like these goofy, brain-dead children, who just like to be nuisances to everyone around them. I feel like I sound like a bitter old man complaining about trivial things about kids my age, and maybe I'm overcritical, that's just how I see it. Anyhow, not having any family left really, and not really any real, close relationships now, I'm at a complete and utter loss of any semblance of happiness or joy. I don't know where to go from here at this point. Sorry this is all over the place, I just wanted to vent my frustrations somewhere.
