I just don't know what to do in life right now. I don't have any hobbies, friends, or a functional family anymore. I'm just not happy with anything, I go to sleep feeling so fricken lonely and wake up with the same feeling. I don't know what's wrong with me..
I'm 18 and senior in high school right now. I use to have so many friends, but things changed. All of my friends drifted away into new cliques and groups. It's still sad to walk past each one of them and they don't even have the dignity to look my in the eyes and say a hello. I also drifted apart from my friends, I don't force all the blame upon them. A lot of my old friends got into a lot of substance use, and I was part of that for a year and a half. But, I've been pretty clean for over a year now. I isolated myself from my friends who did use, just sick of that stuff. It just made me more disappointed in myself.
I could barely deal with being in school, but now it's summer and I have completely nothing to do. Before (during school) I would be busy from 8 to 1:45 and just chill at my house alone from 2-whenever I fall asleep, which is usually very late. (1-2am)
And now I have all day just to be at my home and just hangout by myself. I just want some friends who are respectful, kind, funny, just people who are themselves. You know? I am sick of two-faced douche bags. I live in such a beautiful town, just wish I had some beautiful people to spend time with. Lay in the park, talk, converse, reminisce, just chill at home and watch a marathon of That 70's Show and eat pizza.
I've had two good friends for the past decade, but they're drifting away for good. One of them is a very popular guy (between girls) we use to hangout every single day for years, but he's gotten very serious with his girl friend now, just isolates himself from everyone else. He just hang out with her and plays WoW all the time. He use to be a good friend, but I don't know what happened, started ditching and really got to me. My other friend just graduated and he's been going to a different school, so obviously it's been hard to maintain our friendship. He's going to a foreign exchange after summer and then to college.
I also use to have hobbies, but I lost interested in the past year. I use to play guitar for a couple years, but I don't really have a feel for it anymore.. I also use to skateboard every single day with random people, but all of those people started using drugs and prioritized it over skateboarding. I stopped progressing skating a lone and with fewer people, just gave up a few months ago. I find it's not fun to do alone, like most activities.
Lately I've been looking for a job, never had one before. Need some responsibility and something to do. Dropped off a few resumes, but never got a call back. Just have nothing to do, no one to love. There's only a few things so far that I've grown fond of in life. Hip hop, food, and television. I listen to a lot of underground hip hop and I can just connect to so much of it, I cannot explain the feeling, I guess I can say that it makes me feel alive and not alone for once. Watching the show Scrubs is like a hobby of mine, haha. I've seen like every episode at least 50+ times. Kind of shows how much free time I have o my hands. It relieves me from depression for some reason. Again, I can't explain it.
My old best friend would always tell me to get out and try new things because I'm so introverted. But my lack of friends is because I am so picky (that's what I think) to this day, lots of people still ask me to hangout, smoke, etc etc. But, I don't want to. Most the people who want to hangout just piss me off. Guys in general bug me, always have to smoke weed before school, between classes, after school. it's like their only priority in life. I just want people who want to hangout with no excuse or goal. I worded that a big weird, hope you get what I mean.
My school is very small and I know over 75% of the students (the remainder 25% are freshman) so I'm pretty screwed on that until I move.. I know this is gonna sound weird and pathetic, but I met this girl over myspace. and she's such an amazing individual.. Our states are neighbors and she actually came to visit me, I didn't believe it at first. But she showed up.. I don't really want to go into it too much, but she took another trip down to my state a month ago just to see me for a few days and i dunnoo... that's pretty crazy. she's so beautiful, intelligent, unique, caring.. idk. We spent 3 days just laying in parks and talking about everything that came to mind with each other. And I was content just doing that for hours. During that time she was here, I didn't feel alone for once.. Wish I could get that feeling back.
feel so alone right now, haha.. i don't even know why I came on this site..
not really looking for sympathy, just I know every single person goes through their own level of depression and have different obstacles in their path, just curious how other people deal with it and cope. just wish I had some people in my life right now.. I'm a guy by the way, bet 90% of the people reading thought I was a chick for most of what I wrote. hahahaha.
If you read all this, props. Bet you're a really kind person..
