I am depressed, iin?

I'm glad that you chose to come to this website and tried to write about your situation and your feelings. Sharing is always important. I know how it feels to be constantly depressed and lonely. My situation is not as serious as yours, but I have the downs of my life as times.

I believe in you. I believe you're not like how you say 'you'll never properly connect with another human being beyond friends'. It's just the way you think of yourself.

If you're looking for a very deep friendship or relationship, you shouldn't give up. Maybe you just haven't met the right person yet. If you can muster your courage and keep trying, I'm sure that someday you'll be able to get someone whom you're interested in.

When your friends call you 'cold', very probably it's just because of the way you interact with them. I'm not able to give you good advice since I'm not personally good at interacting/communicating with people. You really should consult a psychologist and ask for more professional advice and find out what your problem is. There's no reason to wait for any longer. If you really want to remedy your current problem, then you should be more determined. Turn in your paper and get an appointment now :)

I'm a complete stranger to you but I hope what I say can make you feel a bit better. You're not alone.

Good luck :)

Yes.

My parents were very against seeking mental help; I was told it was a phase.

That was 6 years ago.

The disparity of mind and body widens with time.

Happened to me so many times. The person i wanna be with never interested in me.

No. It is not normal, by the way you talk (type) you sound to young to be trying to get a gf or bf. and it is crazy that you are getting depressed about it! You are young live life while you are! x

Hello. I'm sorry to hear you're depressed. Look into dysthymia. It's a moderate, but longer lasting form of depression. I was recently diagnosed with it. Fill those papers out, turn them in. Talk to the psychologist about everything that you feel. It sounds dumb at first, but it helps. Warm up to the psychologist. If you're not comfortable with him/her. Ask to see someone else and find the person youre comfortable talking to. Good luck.

Well you are alive arent you? It goes hand in hand with being depressed.

If you have been feeling like this for more than 2 years now, you may have dysthymia.
It might feel strange at first, but talking to a counsellor or psychologist may help you in a way gain control over your emotions.
Actually, you remind me a bit of myself...
So I would say, feeling depressed all the time is definitely not normal, whereas your personality is. You need to find a way to get rid of negative emotions and then accept yourself. This will help you with your self esteem and then it should also be easier to make new contacts and maintain friendships for you.
Hope you're going to feel better soon! :)

Yes, I haven't been "happy" in years. I get where you're coming from. I don't know of it is really normal, but there are allot of people who feel this way. As long as you don't have the urge to commit suicide, it should be somewhat okay.
