Depression

[NewbleHeimer]

Recently I've just been very depressed. I feel as if everything is completely without reason. I feel that there is no point in waking up in the morning. I find myself completely unable to initiate or carry out a conversation with another living person. I have trouble doing so online if it's someone I know from real life. I'm thoroughly convinced that not a person on this planet would want to associate with me, anyways. I've pretty much lost faith in humanity.

I could bore you with the details, but I've got a much simpler solution for those who lack attention spans:

Should I give up on myself and humanity and live on top of some desolate mountain in a shitty little wooden shack 1,000 miles away from another living person?

[BobbaQ]

Erm...

[ParadoxSaint]

Find a hobby, gets some friends, start doing drugs. Anything that makes you happy.

Everyone feels like this from time to time

do something productive, gtfo the computer and g outside. If for nothing else then a distraction, when I'm depressed I do a random bus adventure, you go outside and get on the first bus you see and see where it takes you.

Not entirely.

I'm too much of a pussy to talk to anyone. I've always been this way, and it's just getting worse. It's not angst. Or not entirely.

Do you have anxiety? Do you feel yourself constantly worrying about trivial things such as social events? Do you have an "imaginary audience" everywhere you go?

or do you just feel like a zombie with no drive to talk to another human being?

Depressed for years, beat that shit into submission. Here to help

[UfaKefe]

Don't cast yourself off to a distant mountain, it only makes things worse.

The former, for the most part.

Some times it seems like slightly the latter.

Don't talk about this, it gets me depressed just thinking about it.

You sound like the leaflet the doctor gave me before I was given the pills.

To the OP: to cheer you up at least its only fear keeping you from talking to people. That you can fix with medical or self help (depending on what you have, it could be anxiety or depression or both). I find it hard to talk to people because I just generally don't like them. Its easier on here because you can filter out the idiots. :3

[Jackdabomb]

There is no point in anything. Nothing is worth anything it's just life. But that doesn't mean you can't have fun.

I once made an attempt to talk to someone anonymously via aim. I knew them in real life, but they did not know it was me talking to them.

I could barely even do that.

It actually does. My luck I wouldn't find my way back until 3 days later, when I return stark naked and sobbing.

I said I'm depressed not retarded. Wasting life is just terrible.

Id see a therapist. Depression is a result from an imbalance or an event. Therapists help with both.

[AnonymousAlchemist]

Don't try to live alone. You'll have to deal with the pain of loneliness forever.

The pain of loneliness can fuck some people up.

Don't worry, puberty will be finished soon enough!

No, the chemical imbalance can be helped with pills or exercise or anything that will take your mind off it. Although your sort of right because the therapist is person who will suggest you to do these things whilst at the same time finding the event that caused the imbalance.

Ignore me, I'm half talking out of my ass atm. Some of thats probably right. Again to the OP: go see a doctor, if you can't do it on your own try going with a family member. Thats what I did, they can help you more than we can.

Thats what i meant. No matter whats upsetting you, a therapist can help.

[ExtremeFudgeMaster]

I think maybe getting out and doing something would help a bit. Even if it is a simple as going for a walk to a store or around the block. If you spend your time not doing much it will only add to depression because your mind begins to wander. If it's serious enough you could consider talking to a councellor or a professional, there's no shame in it, I've tried it before.

Here, this will definitely cheer you up...
