I feel so hopeless at 27.

OP here. Thanks everyone for your support and advice. I know as pp stated, I'm not looking for any relationship. I just worry about finding marriage. I think it's different than marrying and finding out you can't have children, rather than having to disclose that. I've known several men who said they would not date a woman ( and later marry her) if they knew she couldn't have kids, and they wanted children. I also want children of my own so it's hard to swallow that I may never be able to.

I definitely think I may have a case of depression, and I will look into therapists and counselors. My family only believes therapy is for " whiners and liberals", and that I am either making things up for attention, or I'm acting immaturely. It just all really sucks. I wish I had that support system where I should be able to get it most. I will look elsewhere and try my best to better my health ( that's when I started to really decline), and stay positive that thing will change for the better. I'm hoping for a good outcome.

The most important thing for you to do right now is to focus on your health, mental and physical. I was in the same place in my late twenties (for different reasons) but the same feeling. Everything was gray. Literally. I finally started working with a therapist and a psychiatrist to start to treat my depression and anxiety. And slowly day by day I started feeling better. Just take one day at a time and try to tune out your family members (they aren't helping). I so wish I could reach out and give you a hug. It will get better. Keep your life a simple as possible until you feel like you can take on changes to improve your career, living situation, relationships, etc. GL!
