Hi there,
Im a 22 year old Kiwi guy who has been hovering around the forum for a while but havent posted yet.
I have depression and socialphobia and am having a very hard time with it at the moment, although Im making regular trips to doctors and am on medication it still seems to get worse and now dominates my life, me having to put my career on hold, move back to my parents house and now spend most my time in my room alone.
I know it sounds silly but even though Im only 22 I feel like my life is already over and I dread living like this knowing what Im missing out on. Does anyone else feel like just giving up?
It was a relief for me to find this forum and realise that other people experienced similiar things to me, for the best part of a decade I felt like I was the only person that felt like this.
