Looking for some friends

9 Replies

I am currently suffering from severe depression and a mood disorder. Nobody I know seems to know what I'm dealing with. My so called friends don't bother with me anymore and I feel alone . It would be great if some people could just message me as I feel like I have nobody to talk to.

Thanks

Welcome to this site Ross

If not already you need to discuss your Depression with your GP. The Surgery should arrange a treatment plan for you

We have people who will give support and understanding of your condition. I do not know however if you will find someone here who will actually wish to meet.

Try dating agencies or clubs in your area. We can explain coping techniques and ways to divert your mind to more positive places

Hi, Am feeling exactly the same way, have been for quite some time but deny it!!!! Could do with a few mates like you xxxx

Hi Ross I've just been reading through your posts and just want to say you're not alone. I feel the same as you about a lot of things and can't seem to figure out what life is really about as work takes over and I seem to be distancing myself from people as I feel so weird at the moment. I think this forum seems really helpful so hopefully we can all help eachother :-)

Hello Ross, I'm sorry you are feeling so alone. I understand and can sympathize. I often feel the same way. What I have been trying to do lately is forcing myself to pursue hobbies I gave up once my depression got really bad. Even though I don't want to, I'm making myself paint, and it seems to be helping a bit. Do you have any hobbies? Or did you?
