Hi,
I feel alone. I'm 19 and I have no friends anymore. No one to confide in, trust, or share my life with. I just want someone to talk to. Someone who gets me and who I can relate to and vice versa. I find it hard trying to make friends. I dread the process of getting to know someone completely for who they are. It takes so much time and effort. I have only ever been hurt in the past after making such close friends and having them just drift away from you without a care in the world.
Does anyone feel like this too?

Hi SN
Ita nice to hear from you. Sorry you are not feeling great. Don’t worry I don’t have words either. I can’t be bothered going to sleep...... sounds strange but it’s true. It’s sort of the same with eating. Not sure I can be bothered
hope you feel better soon

maybe try to do something out of the ordinary to bring yourself up and switch your mindset a little bit?

Hi SN
i have been refraining from posting here as I don’t want to take the spotlight on a forum that is not mine. But to be honest I haven’t been doing so great. It’s been a few weeks now of feeling numb, nothing and darkness. The pain of living hurts the expectations the assumptions and all things in between.
My friendships are vanishing, my thoughts are circling downward and I am feeling the depression sucking me in and I think I am letting it.
My psycologist said that I may not let go parts of my depression which is okay. There are parts I like. The ability to see and empathise with pain. The ability to feel so deeply. The way I can search within myself the dark and the light. Life with depression makes me feel real sometimes. Not when I am numb and uncaring about everything. But when I really feel, it’s real.
So I didn’t want to take the spotlight but I did. Now if anyone would like to share I would really like that. I’ve been missing not hearing from anyone.
SN how have you been of late? Any achievements or events of note? Any realisations or new coping mechanisms?
Hi dragonflies I thought I saw another thread of yours and wondered what it’s title was. How have you been? Sorry I haven’t been in contact. It’s been hard to see through the fog. I suppose I was waiting for someone to reach out first.
hoping everyone is still swimming.
