Maybe?

Postby pogonophile » Sat Nov 08, 2014 7:18 pm

Wouldn't it be nice if we could just order friends online? Maybe we'll get to the days when it's like in the movie Her soon.
I've decided to join this depression forum because it seems to be more active than the last one I joined. I am a depressed fool with social anxiety who has no friends, and I'm hoping to find a friend who will be understanding. Maybe I can be of some use and lend an ear from time to time as well. :) Surely I should find some people in similar situations on the internet of all places, right?

Hello there! Welcome to this forum I am new to it as well. I Joined for the same reasons as you. I have anxiety all the time and it seems to be getting worse for me. It saddens me that you say you have no friends. What about family? I like to think of members of my close family as friends. All though I do have a lot of friends I only see them once in a while. When I do see my close friends all they want to do is go out and drink alcohol, do drugs and party all night long. I think that's fine for high school and college people but we're talking about grown adults 30-33 years old. Most of them really don't have serious jobs where they have to get up super early. Some don't work at all and I have no idea how they survive but they always have money to go out. The friends I love the most, my responsible friends all have children now and I never see them because they're busy raising them. So that's what brings me to this forum. I need people to talk to and share stories about their depression \ anxiety. I've had it all my life and only recently feel comfortable to admit it and talk about it. I think this forum will help. When I don't feel like doing anything or leaving the house...at least I can turn to this and be doing something to help me. Feel free to message me ......your not alone. Peace

Hello!
I can't deem my family friends because they're not very understanding. I still love them, of course, but it is quite unfortunate we can't be closer.
I understand having a hard time hanging out with people who choose to partake in activities you're not interested in. I feel quite out of place around most people my age because the majority are only interested in smoking, drinking, and partying. Then, like you said, others have moved on and have started their own families. That I also can't relate to.
So here we are on the internet! I hope you can learn to open up a bit more on here and maybe get a bit better. :) I'm always available to talk as well. See ya around.
