Do I Sound Depressed To You?!

Question: Do I Sound Depressed To You?

I'm 19 and in university and I've never been a popular kid but I really don't have any friends now. Acquaintances that I say hi and hello to but no one that I actually make plans with or hang out. And it gets lonely. My parents were really controlling and they beat me as a kid and told me I'm worthless but I've left and forgotten about them. I get headaches a lot and sometimes I feel like life isn't worth living, like it's just been one bad movie and even if it does get better the ending isn't gonna make it all worthwhile, and maybe it's better to just walk out. Every night I keep dreaming about a girlfriend or good friend that just calls me at random times and talks to me about their day and you know, makes me feel like someone wants me to be around.

Last week was my 19th birthday and no one remembered, no one called, no one cared, it was the worst day of my life. I feel like I was born just to be forgotten and I feel like I was a mistake and really I don't know why I'm still alive. Does it sound like I have depression, or maybe I'm just lonely, or both?

Answers:

i vote for both. belated happy birth day. you need to see about talk therapy. you really need it ,especially after the childhood that you have had. i had the same childhood and young adult hood. my dad used to beat my brother and i a lot and they would always remind us that we were charity cases. ii was always blamed for everything that went wrong. my favourite was that the world would be a better place if i were a better person. i am now 55 and i still am working on that one. but i was always blamed for my moms drinking and my brothers drinking and drugs. so i can understand where you are coming from. talk therapy is helping me a lot. i really believe that it can help you too. many blessings to you and may you fine brighter days ahead.

personal experienice.

Sounds like both.
But for me, when I was depressed it was very obvious so IDK.. if you have to ask maybe you're just lonely.
I'm surprised I managed to survive my depression, and I never had many friends, but I got out of it and now I have a -lot- of friends.. things get better.

Yeah :( I'm sorry for your condition :( Maybe ask someone for their number and ask them to hang out? Go to a party or a walk in a park or something! Sounds like you need a friend!

ur just mad that the fact that this is happening to u its okay dont get to upset ur not depressed it will get better hopefully soon
