I feel sorry for all of you that are depressed. Just know it isn't your fault.

To will19, I believe that it is because of the way our country is set up. It was established from the beginning that in order to achieve the "American dream" one must become an entrepreneur. This is why you see all these chain restaurants making big money and little shops closing down. I believe a country's economy plays a big role in the desires that its society comes to have. Our country is filled with examples that show this. And simply being in a certain locale can have an impact on our individual. Perhaps it would be wise to move somewhere else, I would like to move somewhere else.

Also, I am sorry that you feel unwanted. My mom tells me that she wanted me, but that doesn't help any still. I don't believe in love, I don't know that I am even capable of it, all I can see is manipulation. It seems to me that the only reason a person does anything at all is to benefit themselves in some way. For example, I believe my parents had me only so that they would have somebody to take care of them when they get old. I now feel like my whole life is a waste.

Thanks for replying, everyone.
