Socially dead due to depression, any solutions?

Postby Towersss » Wed Jul 23, 2014 8:24 am

I'm not anxious in social situations, to the contrary, I'm almost too relaxed.
For the record, I've been diagnosed ages ago. I don't get treated with drugs because I decided I can be functional without them, but I've seen a huge issue in the social department lately. I don't find any kind of inspiration for discussion or conversation. I might get invited to my friends group of friends, and I don't have much in common, so I just stand there and pretend I care what they're talking about.

I've found myself stuck in these social situations a lot altely, unable to chip in. In the past, I'd find a witty joke to break the ice with, but my wit has disappeared with a lack of social situations these last few years, and so my social skills have suffered.

Anyone relate?

After my episodes of depression has just happened to me, lost my social skills and social enjoyment, when I was always joking and too talkative, now or want to see my friends, the change has been great in my personality, there are things that have no explanation .. maybe we have not yet found the right medication, but I feel like I lost my essence, my .. will aftermath of the depression, I guess, I hope to submit in time, or as I said before, with proper medication, we must have hope.
Luck!

Hi. I can kind of relate. I will be in a social situation and feel very uncomfortable and different and make an excuse and just leave. Like I can not make small talk with a group of women because it all sounds inane to me. Don't people understand how f**king weird it is to be alive on a planet? Why are you interested in this or that stupid thing? Maybe you and I need to be in an educational environment in a subject we are very interested in and the relay of ideas back and forth will take the place of superficial wit which doesn't have any real significance.

I am depressed, living alone, ban myself from society, after meeting few borderline/sociopath in my life past four years.

I used to not understand why people can get themselves into depression. now I know I am a depressing loser at this stage of my life. i am really really depressing into such a messy mind which reflects on my writing.

Now hey, there is hope. Look at the sun. There is positive energy out there, I just have to put my frequency back up again to start receiving those energy. and get back to society again.

Lets hold the hope to find the sunshine again.
