Depression

Winter

I am so hurt and depressed that it is hard to find something to make me happy. There were situations that happened during the week, yesterday and this morning around 3:00 am. I never felt this way and honestly I can not stand it. Too much had went on during the last several years, it is hard to find someone to talk to because they are not available. I have no friends, I have no family nearby and even when I lived near family they used to remind me that they worked, or that they have other things to do and have no time. I tried to call a prayer line. I just do not know what to do. life is diffinately not the same and I wonder would it ever be. We have so many things to be grateful for but because of fear and other emotional stuff, it is not possible it seems. I tried to talk and reason but it does not go anywhere.


:( all the time.

It should be easier to have somebody to talk to, right? What happened when you called the prayer line?

There are ways to make friends. You could join a meet-up group. If you like true crime, you could join Websleuths. It is a crime sleuthing forum. The members are so nice. It's free.

i understand how you are feeling and can relate to it. if there is any outdoor activity during this time of the year you can enjoy or would like - you should try that out. Also, I know that there are lot of community groups that are free to join (in person) that will get you out there to make friends (this might be hard if you are introvert and are socially shy) - i know online groups are available for those who would like to interact that way. Personally from my own experience, I enjoy walking and bike riding -this is my getaway from work stress and home stress..

I enjoy such things too such as listening to music, reading, playing games on the computer like solitaire and so forth. But lately it is more than just the fact of not having many friends. I have so much thoughts swimming through my brain that it is not funny. I feel guilty about things. Sigh. So much. I do not know where to begin to describe all that had been going on.

I can say that I am in a depression and want out. I can not stand feeling this way anymore.

    Now that I am not talking to my whatever best friend, I realized that her life is full of drama.  I had grown tired of hearing her stories about her boyfriend many months ago.  She basically had been monopolizing conversations for that long too.  She pretty much stopped asking me questions about me.  I passed her in front of her classroom the other day and didn't even look at her.  I am...

    My friend invited me out for lunch at this nice, clean sit-in place, where I got to order a salad of my choice with two chicken toppings out of a wall-mounted variety. I don't remember the name of the place. However, it was a nice experience. Thereafter, we headed down to one of my favorite dessert destinations, the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory in McAllen. It had been a while since we just...
