many people have no problem following their dreams if they’re prepared to put in a bit of work and make the occasional compromises.
So in other words, if you have your dreams and ambitions and you work hard to achieve your goals, then you’ll have a purpose and you’re less likely to feel as if your life is pointless.

Even so I'm sorry it happened to you. I think if you lead with your knowledge and skills and focus on those things rather than the scary parts you'll have better success finding a good community to join. Community takes a heck of a lot of people skills, maneuvering around social expectations and cues and guessing what others are thinking. This is part of why I'm shifting away from the idea of intentional community myself. I think that, in terms of community, you'd do best in a rural setting where expectations and rules are clearly demarked and you know exactly what is, and isn't, expected. So maybe posting about that on here and see what you find, without mentioning your creepy sibling?I do Celtic, fantasy, folk and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts, and other events in OR and WA, USA.
