I Am Depressed Because I'm Lonely
hey my name is molly, im 19 years old, im really new to this kind of stuff and here is my story. i have always been a shy and introverted person my entire life and i always had trouble making friends. When i was a sophomore in high school i had to switch to homeschooling because i would get so nervous just going to school and having to even talk to people but switching to homeschool was actually a bad move for me because i became even more lonely because i would just sit at home all day by myself, so i went back to regular high school my junior year and i was more confident and i broke out of my shell a little bit then all of a sudden i had alot of friends and i was finally comfortable in my own skin. life was amazing. but it seems like the people that i do become friends with either screw me over or they just use me for things. i am now currently in my second year of college i go to school monday and wednesdays and i work all of the other days so i am constantly surrounded by people but i have never felt so alone in my entire life. my friends have recently stopped talking to me and inviting me to hang out with them and i dont even know why. i feel like have trouble connecting with people and that people just dont get me and most of the people i talk to now are "just acquaintences" i feel like im in a rut and im sick of feeling sad and alone, i want a change. I still live at home so i have my family to support me and to talk to thank god=] but sometimes its nice to just have fun and talk to other people...you know what i mean?
