Hello D Junior, and thanks for posting your comment.
From what you have told us feeling unintelligent, uninteresting, and poor social skills does indicate a sign that you're depressed, although I'm not qualified to say,
This is something you can overcome by visiting your doctor, to begin with, as you have been diagnosed with anxiety, depression and BPD, they may have prescribed you with medication and refer you onto a psychologist by using the mental health plan, this allows you 10 free sessions per year.
People treat us a bit different, some want to disappear, while others don't know what to say, but depression will change the way we think, negative thoughts develop and we build on them, secluding you away by yourself.
You have accepted this happening and that's better than being in denial, what this means is that you are prepared to get the help you need, this is a good post.
Don't compare yourself to others and imagined that they have a better life than you do, you have an illness and with

Hi D Junior and Geoff
How amazing your posts are. they really strike a note with me. For years I have harboured a strong feeling of inferiority because of my size, my lack of good looks and my shyness to express who I was or what I really felt.
Getting help from the resources available through your doctor or through the great programs offered by Beyond Blue, such as this forum, or New Access, or through your regional Primary Health Network, is a great way to get a confidential help to move forward in a positive way.
I have read many of your posts Geoff and never cease to be amazed and inspired by your wisdom
Kindest Regards
Peter
