Even though I've been successful today at getting the house cleaned, the dishes done, laundry out on the lines, dog walked, I am still pretty depressed. I offended a friend terribly recently. They are upset with me. I apologized and said I'd give them a few days and let them cool off. I hurt for the person I've offended, I hurt for myself. It seems that I'm always doing something that hurts someone emotionally, whether its myself, others, or both myself and others. And no matter how much good I try to put into my day to try to make a positive effect on myself, the bad usually outweighs the good. I suffer from anxiety and depression, don't trust much either, and I hurt for everyone. I could tell you so many things about my anxiety and depression over the years, but I already have in my introduction thread a few days ago. So I'll spare it here. This is the most recent problem I've had is offending a friend, seems to be an easy thing to do.

With friends, you have to make sure they are extremely understanding of your personality and your condition. Make it known when you feel like you have wronged them and they should forgive you. If they don't, then maybe they weren't worth being around. If you seem to feel like you are doing something wrong, try to think about every possible outcome before you do/ say something. Put yourself in their shoes. I'm sorry you are having a rough time!
