I don't know what to do...?!

I don't know what to do...?

I'm 18, I live alone, and I think I'm depressed.. I'm lonely and I want a partner but I'm fugly and guys won't even approach a fugly chick.. I feel as if I don't have anything to live for, because I just go to work, come back, and sleep every day. Even if I do go out I'm constantly bored. This has been going on for years. I can't pay for a therapist or a doctor, I just can't afford it, and I'm not going to take antidepprestants anyway because I'm afraid of weight gain side affects.. I had a cockatiel and she was keeping me happy but she recently died - I think i bought her unhealthy.. What do I do? I'm so lost.

Please. Can't someone else give me any advice? I just lost the only one that I really loved [my cockatiel].. And as I said I live alone. I can't go on like this.

Sounds like a difficult situation. Everyone has been depressed at some point in their life. When I've been down the things that help out are first family. Spend time with those that love you and care about you. Do your hobbies and interests or the things that you like to do. You need to change your self image. Be positive, join a gym and exercise. Working out always makes me feel better. Try new things. Set goals for things you would like to accomplish or do and do them. Maybe get a roommate or another pet. As far as meeting guys the gym would be a good place, or maybe even at church. Church will help you make friends and socialize with members of the opposite sex. There is hope. Just don't give in. You can be happy!!
