Why are you depressed at the moment?

Because, i can't control negative thoughts :idontknow:
#402
One of the reasons I have been are because I lost my job a few months ago and haven't never hear back from places that I apply. Another is that I feel like I am a waste and have a very hard time avoiding negative thoughts about myself. Then the loneliness because I've felt that some friends have been avoiding me since before this current phase of depression. That's just a few of the reasons I know, but there are others that I'd be lying if I said I knew what it was. I'm still new at sharing here, but I do feel that it has helped.

Man, I'm sorry. It's hard to find work in such a volatile environment these days. Keep trying, though - you just never know what could turn up.

Negative thoughts are something I have a very difficult time controlling, too. I fully relate and I'm sorry.

I have basically noone in my life right now, I've barely had any significant human contact in the past two weeks, I don't really get along with my family and it frightens me what I will have to face in the new semester in college.

The funny thing is... I'm not even a little bit depressed!, just really, really bored.


you sound a lot like me. being so isolated is making me feel really frustrated with boredom. *hits head against desk* :thumbdown:

"The awkward moment you realize Sheldon Cooper has a date and you don't"
--The Big Bang Theory

Realizing that even my SIL's mom can get a date/relationship with a man and I can't ... kinda hard to explain in written form, but I do feel alone and bummed at the fact that I can't get myself to a more content place in general.

well

especially when carpal tunnel symptoms really hurt and no physical movement, shake, or a rest will get rid of it from going to sleep or waking up, which means my desktop mouse is almost obsolete.

I thought I could trust my eyes and fingers

Back to the basics: just wait and you'll feel better... trying to get the pointer to the submit reply button

Patience, my friend. You will find someone. :thumbup:

Been staying up super late and waking up way too late, so I've gone from taking medication at 9a.m. to 1 or 2 p.m. and it's definitely affecting my mood. Whoooops xD

Because I can't imagine things getting better. Life seems hopeless.

It sucks when is your bullies who aren't struggling with life but you,and they return just to point at you and then your own family mocks you too,I would have been so glad if the world ended already,so many trash in this world that are rewarded it makes me sick,if it wasn't for my cat I would have kill myself long ago,is not only fighting against the world,is a constant fight against myself as well goddamnit.

My life is stuck, with no room to express myself so that I can move forward.

I don't have a job - even if I did have a job because it's not what I want to do, my motivation saps quickly and I end up leaving - and like others, I get depressed when others are doing well and I'm not even though deeply I sincerely want to do well for myself so that I can make myself proud and my family. No future in regards to a relationship with a female, my close friends are now married and busy so I hardly see them but that's not a bad thing sometimes as I lack courage to socialise with them, and I want to be on my own, no family, nothing. Just be on my own.

Besides that, everything's great.....

Cuz I'm broke and my car is now too (again). Oh, and the reminder that I have no family or friends to call for a ride. This in addition to the handfuls of other things that usually depress me. Despite all that, I always try to keep a sunny attitude and focus on the positive, such as living in a free country, having a roof over my head and good health. But damn. When the bad keeps coming and one has to rely on that mantra over and over and over again, the comfort of it begins to lose its warmth. My heart is shrugging. I think my soul wants to take a really long nap. I'm tired.

Oh, and I'm sorry you're all struggling, too. 🙁

Well this always depresses me and not just this moment. I feel inferior to my gf's best friend. He's funnier and a lot more talkative than me and he always makes my gf laugh. I just have this fear she'll leave me for him someday. I mean, they're best friends and all.
