I'm So Sad.

Ein · Nov 4, 2007

i am barely eighteen years old and i can't believe how alone i feel day after day.
i find it extremely hard to relate to people my age, and frequently find little things triggering depression. i've researched manic depression and seasonal affective disorder, but when it comes down to it i think i'm just lonely. i have lots of friends but i feel so distant from everyone. and those that i'm close to just always seem to let me down, and it feels like no one knows how amazing of a person i am; no one understands me.

i don't really know what i'm looking for on here, or what i except to get as a reply, but i just thought if i could say this anywhere, it would be here.

Hey Ein. You're in similar company here

. Do you get depressed when you're bored? Or you're over committed to work? I've found the best help, at least for a little while, is to plan my day a little before hand, so that when the next day comes I have something on my mind.

I'm feeling sad also. I've been "MORE" alone since I left High School (for the record, I graduated, not dropped out). I've been trying to look for friends since the last five years and I still can't find anyone to relate to. Looking for friends was bad, but trying to date was worse! I've been trying for over 11 years and nobody still wants me. It's tough, and I hate this loneliness stuff! I'm going so insane that I might be hospitalized again, and again! or institutionalized! I need to find someone now before it's too late!
