Do you get an overhwelming feeling sometimes that the person your talking to hates your guts? That's happening to me on a daily basis now and I cant help wondering if it's just me being paranoid. The job I'm in does put me in situations where people can be hostile but I've always been able to handle that before. Now I'm surrounded by people who I just feel would rather I buggered off and left them alone. It's hard to stay possitive when your surrounded by so many negetive vibes

No Shadrack, you are a funny and wonderful person. I am sorry you have to put up with this negativity. Try as long as you can mate and then do what you have to do. It will be their loss, not yours.

I think what you are feeling is just the depression lying to you. You have to remember that depression does that.

it's the paranoia of depression.

most days I just feel every fucking person hates my guts.

even people I know who care, I *feel* like they would like me to say the final byebye.

yes, sense tells me I'm not thinking straight, but sometime the paranoia can be very loud & convincing.

*hugs*

always. But in the past year that's changed a lot i think cos i've become a little tougher. You don't like me I don't like you mwhahahahahahaha
But unless the other person shows any definite signs of disliking me i resolve to stay neutral and it usually passes

I had the same problem at work. Everyone was negative and towards me also. It really escalated and I finally quit my job. I am kind of afraid to find another one because I am worried that it may happen at the next work place I am at. Kind of paranoid too.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
