Depression Understood Forums

I have basically no one to talk to. I do not have a good relationship with my sister nor my father. My mom is the only person I talk to but of course that is limited on many fronts. When I'm at home I find myself needing to listen to podcasts 24/7. Mostly comedy podcasts, which is strange because I don't even laugh at things anymore. I'm starting to get annoyed by this fact because I am beginning to realize that its just a substitute for talking to real people. I guess annoyed isn't the right word. I am indifferent about it. As I am most things. Depression is awesome haha. How do you guys deal with loneliness

I experience the same things that you do. I don't have any suggestions. People give me suggestions all of the time but it never helps. I especially have it when something's coming up that I'm dreading, which can lead to a moment of truth - like going to the doctor, taking the car in the garage, and other things.

I totally get the highs and lows you're talking about. I recently started playing slope run to distract myself, but sometimes I find it more frustrating than fun! Anyone else relate? slope run
