The reason being is that there's nothing out there for me, no responsibilities, and, the way my life is going, a very bleak future. I'd rather be asleep than think about that or how much I hate myself and want to die or go out and do terrible things just so I'm doing SOMETHING.
JamesH,
you said you don't work. I was just wondering... how do you support yourself or do you get help from others? I know thats kind of a personal question but my job is causing me a lot of physical pain and I HAVE to work cause i can't afford to support myself and my mom doesn't have money either. I was just wondering when people literally can't do anything cause they are depressed, what do they do about rent food and all other bills?

When I really like a movie, I end up watching it too many times because I associate it with feeling good, so I watch it whenever I'm bored/down to try to feel better.
I also enjoy reading, but it's hard to concentrate as well as I used to.
It is SO HARD for me to concentrate on A LOT of things, not just reading. When people say certain things that i MUST remember, I repeat what they said to try and remember it easier. I think maybe if I say it out loud, I'll be able to remember it more easily. Is your memory like mine?
Also, I do that but with songs instead of movies. I abuse the CRAP out of songs. If i really like it, ill listen to it over and over and over again.

You have chronic pain too? How do you deal with it? Do you work? Does it get in the way of work? Have you been able to find any type of treatment that helps? Sorry I'm asking so many questions. I am COMPLETELY overwhelmed by my chronic pain.
I would read Women's Health magazine and I'm starting to like the magazine Glamour a lot. For genres I guess my favorite would be a romance comedy type movie but I really like all kinds of movies. Actually, horror and the real classic older movies are probably not my favorites.
