Depression Understood Forums

Hi, I'm not entirely good at talking about myself but I'm going to give it a shot before I head off to bed anyway

I'm a struggling 21 year old student trying to survive with Depression and a pretty severe case of Social phobia/anxiety. I've been seeing a shrink for close to a year now but I'm still in pretty much the same situation, no friends, feeling like crap 24/7 and it's getting harder and harder to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but you've no doubt heard it all before. I don't really know why I'm joining because I don't make a very good friend on account of the phobia, but I will at least try.
So yeah.. hi

i love how you made a little poll, that was very cute!!. You said you are a student? May I ask what you are taking?

Anyway, welcome to the forums and there is a chat also on here as well if you ever wanted to use that but thanks for joining and hope to talk with you further.

bye,

I'm doing a major in Software Engineering and a minor (possibly major if I can handle it) in Psychology.
Thanks for the welcome

very nice, i wish you all the luck in that! and no problem.

Well, I will forgive you for not being a dependable friend if you will forgive me for being the same way.....

Ya try to be a good friend, but awfully hard when you feel like you have all you can handle with just your problems, huh?
(how I feel a lot of time, anyway.)


Anyway, glad to have you here.
