With my experience, I don't recommend talking to friends that aren't experienced with depression, as it usually ends in someone making a casual comment with an extremely simple "solution" that leaves you feeling about 2 inches tall. We're here for you though, and understand your feelings

I feel you. /: Though I used to lean more toward the "no one likes me" aspect of it, it now feels like "everyone would just be better off without me and they just don't want to hurt me by leaving." Urgh, it's not a fun feeling at all and it just makes me lash out when I shouldn't, like I'm screaming "JUST GET IT OVER WITH AND STOP PRETENDING WE'RE FRIENDS ALREADY!!!" without actually saying it. Sigh.

Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.” – Rainer Maria Rilke
