I chat on forum boards until I cannot type anymore. I feel like I exhaust everyone. I do not have a therapist anymore. When you have been to one off and on for 30 years, you do tend to hear the same advice over and over. And over. Not that I am above advice.

I am 21 years old. I live at home, sorta. I am unemployed. I have no friends. I never go out. I am also overweight with zero self-esteem. I just don't know what to do.

When I was in 11th grade, my dad died.My mother was never very financially set - and with his death, we lost a large check every month. She decided to move to Missouri to be closer to her family and ...

Some background history:

I've had feelings of depression for the past 5 years.

I was also on the medicine Accutane that pretty much sent me into a horrible downward spiral about 4 years ago. I was basically a complete emotional trainwreck with anti-social tendencies (I had been very outgoing in the past), and grades tanking.

Hi everyone,

I've been living with a woman for 4 years and since the beginning I've believed that she has "issues". Now, I'm not sure if they're out of the ordinary or if I'm imagining things.
