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.

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.
