Isolated and struggling
Depression Support / by Nairhair95

...See more How to deal with the mindless struggles of continually isolating yourself and not being able to get out of this cycle? I don't have friends now so I feel bad and if I do come across people I feel shame and try to get out of the social situation as soon as possible. I know if I just had one friend to give me relief from the struggles of life, going to college which I hate, living with a family I hate etc., I would feel more encouraged and be happier in life. No one could possibly understand how bad it is the be so isolated and alone. If I don't have even one friend to help me and support I just don't think I'll ever be happy again.
Is it possible to be happy having no friends?

...See more Hey, I've had no friends for nearly 5 years now. Sadly I'm used to it but in another way I'm still very ashamed and unhappy with the situation. I just think that because I'm still a human being that craving for meaningful connection isn't going away and I yearn for it. I don't think I could look for a boyfriend as I'd be too embarrassed about not having friends. So I'd really be just looking for just someone to hang out with and talk to. The main thing that holds me back is thinking everyone already has friends from school that they already have a deep relationship with. Do People in their early twenties want to make friends or will I just be rejected and humiliated?
College

...See more College is so hard when you have social anxiety. I just hate anyone at all looking at me, even if it's just walking into a classroom. I want to be invisible all the time. I know for a fact I look miserable because I'm so uncomfortable and unhappy being around people I don't know. I make others uncomfortable with my weird facial expressions and off putting demeanour and the sad thing is i'd really like to make friends because i don't have any. What do you do when you're in a big college in a social environment 24/7 and you hate it. How can i make it more tolerable? I can't even sit in a lecture and concentrate because i'm worried about how i'm being perceived and whether i look angry or weird to others.
Huge insecurities holding me back

...See more So I have some deep emotional wounds and insecurities that are always sabotaging me when I'm trying to meet new people and maybe hopefully make friends. I didn't have a great time in school, never made any friends and found the whole experience really painful. So school is a hard topic for me. Also just not having any friends means I don't have any plans or go travelling like most people my age. So just not having friends is my big one and then also my very boring life because of it are big insecurities. I always start withdrawing and isolating myself because of these problems. How can I feel OK to carry on meeting people despite feeling so badly about my insecurities? The same problems wreck keep pushing me away from others.
Out in public, how to do it

...See more Why do I focus so much on other people and what they think about me when I'm in public. I want to get my hair done but I can't leave the house. I don't want to go get my ticket for the train and be waiting around with others and standing beside others on the train. I never know how to act in public and I feel uncomfortable. Why is my life like this? Everyone else is out doing what they need to do and want to do and I can't go anywhere where there's people.

...See more I'm acknowledging my loneliness now for the first time and I've realised only I can change this. I'm willing to start getting out there and doing things but the same problems are bothering me. I feel uncomfortable on my own and I find it hard to enjoy doing things with no one to share it with. How do other lonely people stay positive in these situations?
I'm finally willing to be a happier me but I feel family members are stopping this from happening?

...See more My family are the people that I have seen me go through this horrible time of depression in my life. I had no other close friends during that period so they're really the only ones who knew the full extent and experience of my depression. I have no friends because of how debilitating my depression was and so my family are the only support I have. They're really not supportive though and always bring up my flaws and things I've done badly. It feels like they hold these things against me. Can I make it to recovery all on my own?
