For the past few months I've been having problems with staving off being alone for long periods of time when my friends/family are busy and cannot hang out with me. It's gotten to the point where I'm 90% afraid to call my friends because I'm scared of being rejected, and when I am, my emotions plummet and I end up feeling really sad and alone. I'm still young, I still live with my mom and dad, but I tend to stay away from asking my dad to hang out because he works all the time leaving me with my mom. I do enjoy the time I can spend with my mom, girlfriend, grandparents, and other friends but as soon as they leave or I can't hang out with them again soon I start getting depressed and I end up being in my room on the computer or playing on my Xbox One. I don't have very many friends that I hang out with other than two or three of them that I usually rely on to hang out with. I just want to know how to stave off this loneliness because it kills me so much inside and I can't take being alone, I keep wondering "what am I gonna do with myself? I want to spend time with people."
On a side note I've had depression since 10th grade and while it's not as serious anymore, I still get depression attacks and I get depressed when I am alone for long periods of time (By long periods I mean hours in a day). While I say I am alone my mom is home about 75 to 80% of the time I just feel lonely and want to hang out with people.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I'm glad I found this forum.
