Depression Support Group
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.

I don't know if anyone can relate but life at the moment sucks a hell lot.
I am in a foreign country for a job.I am so lonely here with no friends and no one to talk to.
I made a few friends when I came here but I don't know why all of a sudden to started ignoring me.I thought we guys shared a good bond but they just took me out of their lives and threw me out.
I don't have any friends at work and everything I have to do on my own.When I look around I see people so happy , going out for lunch together,doing things together but I have to eat alone,work alone and do pretty much everything alone.
I have actually started doubting myself that may be something is wrong with me.I have no energy to get out of my bed and go to work.
I just feel that I repel people because wherever I go I can't make any friends and find people who wants to my friend.I am really down with depression and really hopeless.
I have really started believing that I don't belong here.I don''t want to feel rejected,depressed.
People say god has a plan for all of us but I really don't know why god wants me to go through this.
I am sry guys but i had to get this out of me as its killing me inside.
God Bless You All...

I am sorry you are feeling so alone. Please know that God loves you and that He wants only the very best for you, but that doesn't mean that we won't experience trials in our life. Don't apologize for sharing that's what we are here for, I am glad you shared your circumstances with us. Feel free to share any time you need to. Maybe you are trying to hard to make friends, maybe just relax and let it happen naturally. Maybe they were not the right kind of friends for you in the first place if they can disregard you and your feelings so carelessly. Hang in there and don't give up. Pray and ask God if you should continue to stay where you are or come home. Prayer really does work hon. Hugs to you. chelleleigh72

I can relate to your feelings of isolation and aloneness as I go through that a lot myself. It is at times like these that make or break us. We must look up for the help and strength to endure and for guidance to find good people in our lives. I suggest strengthening ties here as that has kept me alive when I felt so very alone. If you posted this on the general board you would get more responses. How I pray hope and encouragement for your weary soul.

I'm not in a foreign country, and I do have family members who live close by, though not ones I really want to see that much. I am also working at a new job. I think there's just a cycle, you're the new person and everyone is curious, then you're not the new person cause they get tired of being interested in someone other than themselves, and pull away, and then comes the ease, where you feel at ease with them and they feel it with you and things get better. You will know the ease when you feel it. When you feel like you are able to take care of yourself, you can survive and defend yourself if you have too. the ease will come when you finally know this.

That must be so difficult, you in a foreign country and feeling so alone. Thank you for posting your feelings, this is the place! Humans need face-to-face contact and communication and we tend to emotionally drown when we don't get that basic need met. I would suggest (besides posting here) to maybe join a group of interest to you, like a painting or book club or anything you're interested in. You may be able to meet more like-minded people and friends there. You wouldn't feel as lonely as you currently do. I'm sorry those people dropped you- what losers! You can do better than those fake friends :)
