I have no idea what's been wrong with me latley or how to go about fixing it. I'm a junior in college and latley have had no motivation to do any work or to be social. I get great grades usually, I have a large circle of friends and usually am always up for a party or to go out to the club but latley I have been locking myself in my apartment and have had NO desire to go out.

I slept through my classes Wednesday and Thursday, have been taking naps every day and sleeping as long as I possibly can. I've been ignoring my cell phone when people call me and avoiding hanging out with people or going to parties. Even as I'm typing this my friends are calling me trying to convince me to hang out at their place and I have no desire to be around people. All I want to do is the bare minimum of what I should for my classes and sleep.

I think another big part of my mood as of late is that i feel as if EVERYONE around me is getting engaged or at the very least has a boyfriend. I know I shouldn't let it bother me that I'm not seeing someone right now but it really does. I strongly believe that people get what they deserve in life, and in good and bad karma. I feel like I care SO much about other people, I would do anything for anyone and I really try to be a good person...but nobody cares about me. It just makes me feel like a bad person, constantly. Like I'm not worth anyone's time. Crying or Very sad

Thanks for reading...any kind of replies would be helpful. At least so I know I'm not the only one who feels like this.

If you are away from home, you have to realize that this is a SAD time due to the holidays. I would just chill and keep a daily log of how you are feeling. See if there are times when you are worse called "Triggers". If it seems to be getting worse instead of better, time to have it looked into.
