Hello everyone. I am totally depressed.

Hey all, I am a nineteen year old male living in the US. I have been dealing with crippling depression, social anxiety, self harm, self destruction, alcohol abuse, and much more. I would like to know if there is someone out there who is like me, and if you just want to sorta talk about it or something. Maybe we could help each other out. I'm okay with talking about anything you want, and I'm okay with adult language. Contact me if this sounds like something you would want to do. All ages/genders/races/sexual orientations are welcome. Hit me up, guys. I really need to figure out what to do, or how to cope. We may even become friends, who knows.

I'm seventeen, and also live in the US. Just to warn to you, I do tend to use adult language. I'm struggling with depression as well. And it's a chore just to get out of bed in the morning. I can't tell my dad about my problems, because he wouldn't approve. So it feels like I have no one there for me. Even my doctor wont help me with my physical problems. So I feel like I'm alone. And I also struggle with social anxiety, so I don't like not having anyone.

I guess i suffer from social anxiety. I hate to be alone most of the time. Right now my boyfriend has moved out temporarily and it's so hard on me. I know everything is ok with us. But he doesn't really talk to me when he's gone. And I'm so upset and when I'm alone now I don't know what to do with myself. Just having someone to talk to helps.

Hi, I am struggling with something very similar. My bf and I are on a break right now and I have really bad separation anxiety and not quite sure what to do with myself either. I guess talking it through helps clarify where the anxiety comes from. For me it seems like a habit, I catch myself daydreaming about what he is doing or if he is thinking about me too, so it's difficult to not have that anxiety. It's hard for me to be in te present moment and enjoy the company I'm with or to be fully present in my mind while doing things. Do you feel this way too?

I do. But my situation is a little different. We are still together. He moved out to help his mom. But I don't understand why he has time to get on Facebook for a few mins but he can't text me and check up on me when he knows I'm really depressed.

I know how you feel. I constantly check my fb to see when he is online & I'm starting to think maybe it's unhealthy. It becomes obsessive. So I try to minimize fb to checking it only 2xa day and trying to do things for myself that will make me feel better. Treat yourself kind. It helps to do some self work

He can't tell you why he wants a break ? That would bother me. But I have a big problem just him not being there cause I'm use to it and now it's like he just disappeared kinda.

Exactly. It feels unnatural.

It does. That's the only way I can explain it. A part of me is missing.

Since we have the same issue is there anyway for us to chat on here but not in the forum ?
