I really have no idea what to say. That sucks.
But like Violet says, it's not always like that. There are probably many people who won't understand you, that's given. And they may outnumber those who do, but they don't matter. I know how hard it is to find people who can understand just what you're talking about, let alone relate -- I hadn't found anyone who I could talk to about anything related to my problems or emotions before I came on this board. I know it's probably very difficult right now to see the upside to anything, but try to focus on the people that do understand you. Feeding the negative is a guaranteed one way ticket to emotional hell.
I know what you mean, with not being capable of talking to people. I feel that way, too. I'm terrified of speaking to strangers and even friends if I'm alone with them, I never seem to get the right words, so I don't say anything even when I probably should. Being isolated and not having anyone understand you is hell, first hand experience here.
You seem like a really cool guy, Creed. Hang in there.
