Question: Stop feeling so depressed when there is no reason too be!? What is wrong with me!?
Help 20yrold male!.Most days of my life is pretty simple and plain!. I go to school then go to work then come home and sleep!. During my breaks or when there is vacation I dont really socialize a lot with people I just mostly stay home by myself!. I feel trapped in this world and do not know where I belong!. I cant socialize with people because it is hard for me too do so because i guess i think too much of what I might say and end up saying something stupid!. If i do say something I dont say much because I dont have alot of interesting things to say in conversations with friends,coworkers, or people in general!. I am too concerned I guess with the way I look and how people judge me!. I try to be more social at times but when I do have good days with friends it seems that the very next day I end up getting depressed for no reason at all and that depression prevent me from going out!. IS there a phone number I can cWww@Answer-Health@Com

hi honey, you have some low self esteem and i have been in the same boat for years!.!. maybe your confidence has been undermined by other people, and maybe your temperment is naturally shy/nervous which only magnifies the problem!. i suggest reading some self esteem books, they are very helpful!. you may also have alot of negative thoughts, which it sounds like you do!. negative thoguhts hold you hostage,!.!. they will always win as long as you keep thinking them!. and you'll stay put exactly where you are!. the great thing is that you don't have to give in to them!. you have to make a conscious effort to change your thought patterns!. any time you tell yourself "i can't/won't/shouldn't" replace it with "I will, I can, I deserve to" because you do! and you don't deserve to live being held hostage by negative thoughts, when no one else is thinking them but you!. its just a matter of learning how to think right!.!.!. sometimes we do the best we can with our circumstances and oru life doesn't turn out how we expect!.!.!. so we have to take the conscious effort to turn it around!. i know you can do it!Www@Answer-Health@Com
