I got the type of family that i only see at funerals and if we have contact they bring bad vibes. My friendships have faded thus my options are slim to non.
My birthday is coming up. How can i celebrate it in a way that doesn’t feel lonely?

Coworkers?
Go to a sports game. It’s always fun to be in a crowd cheering on your team. Makes you feel like everyone is celebrating with you.
Sometimes it can happen that we spend that day alone but If it’s your wish to celebrate with others I hope you think of someone positive. I feel that family thing a lot and know what you mean
Make your birthday a wonderful day to treat you. If you can afford it go away for the night to a city you’d like to explore, eating by yourself at a restaurant for lunch can in someway not seem as self conscious as the evening,
If going away isn’t an option plan a great dinner for yourself, treat yourself to a movie you’d love to watch, bottle of wine etc.
Get on a train and explore a new place.
Visit a museum.
Use this day to make some great memories. Whatever you do have a very happy birthday 🎂
