dude, I know how it gets. And when ever you try to explain it to someone they always say something like "well don't kill yourself" or something. Maybe it's just me, but people always jump to the conclusion that just because I'm a little on the psycho side I'm gonna blow a bullet in my head cuz I'm depressed. Only thing you can is try to live through it. Don't run from your problems, face them head on. Running just makes it worse. And when it's all over, call up your friends, throw a party, and if someone asks for what, just say "because life's a bitch, just like your mom" and laugh.(this is a serious post by the way, except the life's a bitch, like your mom thing... you can do that if you want, though  ) ------------------

Man! I know how you feel! Once I got really depressed. Fortunately I was saved! Here's how it all happened...Because I would sometimes cry a little by accident, I started wearing sunglasses 100\% of the time during school. When teachers told me to remove them, I told them I'd rather recieve a punishment than take them off. They always decided to not bug me about it. ANYWAY, that's not the good part... So by wearing these, chicks who were slightly screwed-up (the kind who are "fixers"... grew up taking care of parents or siblings... usually go-on to be nurses) started paying attention to me. They someone picked up on that I needed help, and were deathly attracted to that! Then I started going out with one! GOOD BECAUSE: a) going out with someone gave me good self asteem b) gave me excuse to get out and have fun c) being liked was nice d) someone was always on my side (cause she's a "fixer" and wants to make me feel good) e) I realized I was better off than her, and that made me feel good So there you go! In ALL SERIOUSNESS: start looking pitaful and someone will take care of you! I know that sounds like bad advice, but it worked for me... ------------------

Spydir, I get that all the time. I can't explain how I feel sometimes and I'm -not- suicidal. Sometimes when I do confide in someone they make me feel as though I've overstepped the boundaries of our friendship. I don't run from my problems, they just seem to be wooping my arse at the moment. And it fucking hurts. I'm caught in a relationship that I doubt, she talks about spending the rest of our lives together, and I'm only 20. I don't feel I can talk to her properly, my father is not the emotional kind and my mother is in another country (in a shit predicament herself). It's just been too much. But thanks for your replies, it really made me feel better.

Yes, but you don't want a girlfriend who only likes you because she feels sorry for you... especially since once you no longer need her care, she may no longer have any need to be around you... What you really need, what we all need on occasion, is someone to talk to, someone who is willing to just listen to your problems without making any judgements or trying to give any advice. It has happened to me several times this year that I just started talking with someone, and ended up sharing more than I ever thought I would. And I felt better about it, afterwards; it isn't always easy sharing things with others, but it's nice to know that someone out there knows what you're going through.

I know, Michael, but there's just a lack of people to confide in. As I mentioned before, my friends as I've realised are not my friends. The feeling of isolation is terrible, and I don't want to make friends purely on sympathy.

I used to share my feeling a lot, until I reailzed that nobody really cares what I'm talking about. The epitome of this realization was when I was in a big predicament (relationships, blah blah blah) and I didn't know the short way to explain what was happening to me. I tried explaining to a number of people, and ended up getting bored people who didn't seem to care, couldn't relate, didn't have any sort of advice or anything to say, etc... inluding one of my best friends from high school, another high school friend and tepfather.So, I've stopped explaining my hardships or really even talking much at all about myself. It just becomes easier to have very few friends, except acquantances that I can make laugh. It's easier just to push people away, move to the other side of the country, and focus on your own shit. Most of the problems in life come from the others around you... damn them. At least I'm not depressed about it That was probably one of my wierdest posts yet. I appologize for bugging you all. Nothing to see here, just move along.

I did speak to a friend of mine and she did make me feel better.. but perhaps it's just my male side emerging, while I do feel better, the problem still isn't solved.

finding a female to talk to can sometimes be really helpful, because of the way they deal with problemsmen like to look at a problem and try to solve it, which is why a girl can get very frutrated if she is dumping her emotional baggage on you and you try and solve her problems, rather than just listening women however, dont generally try and solve their peer's problems, they listen, take it all in, and tell them it will be ok etc so in conclusion, you are having 'female' type problems (im not calling you a sissy or anything obviously ) so find yourself a female to talk to... mother (impossible  ), sister, cousin, friend, girlfriend, anyone. you will find it a lot easier to get the right support. they wont solve your problems, btu they will make you feel better about them ------------------
