Trying to work it out.

Not only am I depressed but I suffer from it every other month.

I am social, I have friends (not very close but they are fun) and go out often. I am very appreciative of this but recently the regular depression has taken a turn for the worse. I was denied the career I wanted to do since I was 4 and am having trouble getting over it.

My friend is cheating on his girlfriend and I am rather annoyed, sometimes I wish I just had someone to talk to and it frustrates me that most people don't realise just how lucky they are to be in a relationship or with someone.

Hopefully things will change when I go to university, so, uncharacteristcally, i'm being optimistic

I would just like to know that someone has read this and (hopefully) understands what i'm trying to say...hard it may be.

peace

Does anyone know what I mean by just having someone to talk to, like someone to text during the day...

I know what you mean. Everyone needs someone to talk to. Depression is a tough illness and you should never have to face it alone. This forum is a good place to talk and vent, but you don't always get immediate responses. Maybe you should consider counciling. I know it's hard, ecspecially for men, to admit that they need it, but it can really help. Well, I'm here to talk if you want, you can pm me, or you can get my e-mail address from my profile. I think that you will make more friends once you start going to school. There's really no way to avoid it when your in college. Especiallly when you live on campus. You will soon find that special someone, your still very young Im assuming, and have your whole life to find her/him. well, keep your head up and things will get better. Take good care of yourself.
