I'll share my sob story too. I'll try not to make it too long and emoish.
Basically I'm depressed for many reasons, most having to do with my social life. Ever since I was a baby my family constantly moves like every year or two or so, for reasons such as them finding new jobs or splitting up, and I've always had to try to adjust to new enviroments and people. And it makes me feel like I've never had a real home or a place to belong. When I was growing up my dad used to beat me a lot, so violence has become part of my nature. I've gotten in a dozen fist fights over the years... sometimes I can't control it. I was constantly teased and bullied all through out grade school, so it's like I've put a protective barrier around myself because of my insecurity. I'm over defensive and over sensitive, which makes me seem like an asshole to people. Even my family says I have an explosive temper and I'm hard to talk to. I have no self confidence. I've never had any girlfriends or any friends at all for many years. And what really makes me sad is that the last real friends I had have all moved on and are living normal lives with their girlfriends, jobs, cars, etc. and I'm left behind and alone in misery. I have been trying to improve my situation by going to the gym, going to college, and taking guitar lessons, but it's not enough to make me happy. I can't even find a damn job. So like a month ago I told my parents that I know I'm depressed and need to seek help. And this time they are listening to me, so I'm going to start seeing a therapist very soon and I just hope that with his help I can come out of this.
Yeah I know.... yawn.... Well I guess that's life... everybody has their own problems and their own b.s. so yeah...
that's a mess mate!!!! glad you feel that way - going on with your life.
