Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Today depression has hit me hard. I feel extremely anxious, lonely, sad, isolated from the world.
I know these feeling will pass (they have in the past), but I wonder why I always seem to end up in this bad place. My life feels like a vicious cycle of me trying to get out of isolation and loneliness, but I always end up either alone and isolated, or surrounded by people who don't really care about me.
I am so tired of failed relationships, failed careers, failed everything. What am I doing wrong?

The vicious cycle can really make us feel like crap. I don't know the details of your past and current situation, but it's often not something we are doing wrong...I don't know why we suffer like this. You're doing a good thing for yourself by connecting with people here.
Take care
I empathize with you. I believe you are not doing anything wrong because all that you described in your post has to do with depression.
The only challenge you have is not to let depression control you but have to control your depression.
This is easier said than done but what other recourse do we have, to do our best.
I hope and know you will overcome this bump.
Best wishes and hugs,

Anyway, thanks again.
