Most depression I've ever had

I don't know what's the problem with me. In the past 6 months I've started taking Paxil again and I'm finally able to keep a job without freaking out and quitting after 3 weeks, but I feel like life is meaningless. Even with Paxil I can't make friends so I'm lonely at home, but I also hate going out cause I always feel awkward talking to people. Any free time I have I obsess about not having a girlfriend and when I'm at work, I hate my job. I'm not sure if Paxil is causing this or I need to take more Paxil. What a mindfuc*!

Ever try Adderall, or Ritalin? They make it easier to talk and socialize, they also boost your mood and are sometimes used to treat treatment-resistant depression ;)

Paxil has been a wonder drug for me. I was prescribed Adderrall for my ADHD and it did not make me more sociable however it did give me more energy to do things but did not make me say more things.

Oh my... Do I know how you feel! I have felt that way my entire life. I obsess over having a girlfriend and of course the female anatomy too. Even if I did have a girlfriend, I feel like it would be great, but it still wouldn't matter much because of this lack of meaning in life. I feel like I am a waste of water and air. I can hold a job though, even though I was laid off back in April after 16+ years of staying with the same employer. Now that I am back in the looking for work mode, I am finding that there isn't anything that I am qualified for. Nobody wants an electronic tech that has skills in land line modems and multiplexers. Sorry to change the subject, I find myself doing that allot these days. I have been single my entire life, and I have always ALWAYS wanted a girlfriend. Being a guy with raging hormones, I have always wanted a female companion. It's a lonely life. If I wasn't afraid to die, I would have ended my life a very long time ago. Even when I am supposed to be having fun like at an amusement park I still feel depressed and anxious. I can't talk to anyone that is a stranger, I avoid eye contact, and when I see a gorgeous female I feel even worse. I feel so horribly bad that I want to kill myself, but my fear of death prevents me from acting on it. That's another reason why I hate going out of the house, because if I see someone who is attractive, I get very very depressed because I know that I will never stand a chance with her. I am old, fat and ugly. My body may be 40+ years old, but in my minds eye I am only attracted to younger ladies half my age. I feel like a dirty old man, and I can't help it. I have tried many therapists, psychiatrists, handfuls of drugs and different combination's of drugs and all the chemicals out there did nothing to help me. I feel trapped in a body and a life that I have never really wanted, and for as long as I can remember. Which is as far back as 5 years old, I have always felt the same way I do now. I honestly feel like the only way to rid me of this gnawing agonizing grief, is to die. I sure wish the grim reaper would hurry up and just do it...::(:
