If someone like me gives a different perspective to things, it's not that people bash you, they probably offer solution they think it's the best through their own experiences and from their own point of view. Nice that you noticed my post and responded, but maybe a little laidback attitude would be good for you. Take it easy, your situation I mean.
Maybe now I'm supposed to write here how I give you hugs and kisses, but they mean nothing over the internet, so I won't do that. I hope you find your way out soon, but if you don't, I think it's not wasting time if you are just at home. It's just another way of life in this endless cycle.
I'm a young guy, 20 years old and I have done pretty much nothing the past year, because I'm pretty disabled by the depression. I would like to do work or go to school (which I'm going to try soon in the autumn), but it just not that simple at all with constant anxiety and fear of things. So to speak, I know what being at home and doing nothing is. I know it very well indeed and most of the time it bothers me aswell. That may even be part of the reason why I am depressed in general, but I just can't get interested in anything, because I miss emotions. You most certainly know these things.

Ok . Here's the thing....I'm not sensitive most of the time, but you weren't simply offering advice or your opinion in that first reply. You basically told me I was abusing a forum that was meant for people with "real depression" and that my post didn't belong here. Anyone would be offended by that. I never said you had to agree with the things I wrote (or anyone else) but you don't need to respond the way you did.
And yes, I know how you are feeling, I've dealt with it a lot of my life. If you're able to find the right doctor/therapist/possibly meds. It does get better. I won't say I'm "cured" as I still have bad days (Hence the reason I started this thread) But the days are becoming more and more tolerable with help and time.
