heyi found this site while browsing for someone to chat to on a site abput depression. you see, I am depressed and i hate myself. i fee like i am all alone and have nobody to talk to. my family don't want me around anymore an i don't feel as though i belong. i get really paranoid that people are talking about me and i can't be in the same room with someone for lonh before i come out in a cold sweat. I am 17 and have been told its just my age but i dnt think it is. help me, i have nobody to talk to and i think i'm about to crack

hey,well you've taken a big step by coming to this board and posting about your problems... we are a friendly bunch here so you've got nothing to fear.Why not join up and make it official... and don't worry... most of us don't bite

heyi'll talk to you. what's up?

you will have plenty of people to talk to on here if and when you want diver is great to talk to...

When you think too much, things start to get to you. Yesterday, I was up for 24 hours straight and for the last 5 hours I couldn't sleep cuz I was thinking. I started to get paranoid and even started to ACTUALLY HEAR voices in my head. I was on a bus full of people sleeping, but the voices I heard were my friend's, which I looked over very quickly and they were sleeping.Anyways, the point of that story was thinking too much gets to you. If you feel like no one wants to be with you now, I'm sure there are people that want to be with you that you haven't met yet. Try to loosen up, take a deep breath when you're thinking too much, think positive when you are thinking, and don't care about what other people think too much because there will always seem to be something negative out there. I hope this helps.

heh thanks for that, it really means a lot. knowing i can talk to people, especially as you don't know me, it kinda easier to talk to people you don't know. ok, so how do i cope with this?? the feelings are so strong i don't if i can survive the next minute, the next secound, all my efforts are put into this and i often feel like it's not worth it. you thin i'm just being over dramatic?? I really don't know what to do anymore. i hope you guys can help, i need some friendly people to chat to. Becky (I was the one who started this thread, i have registered like you said)

Becky, PM me sometime. i'll chat with you.

ok, so how do i cope with this??I think just how you're doing it, by taking it one day at a time and TALKING about your concerns, even with people you don't know. It helps, believe me. Good luck!

Hey you're not being over dramatic, just take life one step at a time. Get through each second, minute. That's a good thing to do. Feelings can be so over whelming, it's hard to deal with them, but you're not alone and I'm here if you need to talk about your feelings.

wow that is a really good post unforgetto... i have the same social anxieties too but i find that mine are kept under check by my zoloft.

yeah, i undeerstand what your saying, the part of me that is logical knows that i am being silly and foolish, but the other part of me that isn't logical takes over and my feelings of depression get worse and worse. it doesn't help that crimbob is round the corner and people are together in couples, and theres lil old me that only seems to 'pull' guys that want sex, the emotional love isn't there. i just babling now so will go.speak to you all soonbecky

give me a bell sometime becky, I've sent you my mobile number
