I Think I Have Depression
Posted: 07-21-07 03:05am

I feel empty. I don't know why. I'm surrounded by a great family, that's supportive, I have the greatest friends. But i still feel empty and alone inside. I often wonder what the point of my life is. I think about killing myself all the time, but would never do it because I don't want to hurt anyone. I think my biggest problem is not being able to find a girl. Physcially, I'm very confident, I know I'm atractive, I've been told it too. But I just don't have confidence in my personality. As a result I'm really shy. There was one girl I really cared about, but she started to lose intrest in me in the same way I cared about her, and I acted way out of line, now the one friend that I really cared about wont talk to me... and I don't blame her.

I really just need to find someone, but I just don't think it will ever happen.

<sigh> i need a hug.

Hiya
I'm sending you hugs and confidence ...
You sound a really nice person, who just needs a little guidence, you got the looks, and now all you need is time to come out of your shell, your friend will forgive you in time, and if she doesn't, then she's no friend.. can you put how she made you feel to one side, give yourself a good talking to, you don't have to turn totally opposite to how you are, but learn to be positive, and the confidence will shine thru... girls like confidnet guys, you have it, everyone has it, but you got to look for it, once you've found it, it won't leave you.

More hugs - strength - and a little bit of my confidence being sent to you.

Ginger

I feel the exact same as you! Well, Im stuck too. I have no idea what to do. Sometimes I think that everything bad that happens is somehow my fault. Its hard to explain, but I think I know how you feel.

The way to really come up is to practice

but also to have stuff there to inspire you....great music....ideas....pictures...perople...etc

these things have to be found and in some cases require a lot of brain digging

but make sure you come out of your shell and try your ideas out....see what people think of you...learn what human life is really worth

that is "The Fine Art of Surfacing"

Feeling Depressed
Posted: 09-04-07 09:30am

I can relate totally! I think that I have been depressed for almost ten years. I was in an abusive relationship that lasted about two and a half years. My ex boyfriend sexually assaulted me as well as belittled me. He made me feel as if no one would ever love me. He stole my joy! He gave me a std that I have to live with for the rest of my life. I blame myself for trusting him, although I had been in a non sexual relationship with him for years. Now, it's been almost ten years since our first sexual encounter and I am still depressed. Crying
or Very sad

You're attractive. You'll find someone, trust me. As for the empty feeling, it's puberty. You'll get over it after a while.
