I suffer from major depressive disorder. This disorder has ruined my life. I have so much difficulties with everyday function...I can't even enjoy activities. I haven't enjoyed any in many years. It's embarrassing when I meet someone and they are like, "So what do you like to do?" I don't even know what to say because I don't know what it is like to like something. I have no social life. I am not great with making friends. I am mostly alone, and I will admit: it does suck. People do like to point out I don't have a life, they probably get some sort of self-esteem boost from it but whatever. It's just incredibly embarrassing. I don't even know 90% of the lingo or what people do on free time (Im 22).

just need to vent. MDD is a tough cookie, and I've suffered from it for a while. My parents don't understand why I don't like x,y,z, but what do you want me to do? I try. It's just so hard for me.

I’m going to guess your on some type of medication. When was it last looked at ? It’s extremely common for psych meds to just stop helping over time and changes need to be made.

Are you seeing a Therapist?? I feel Therapy is just as important as medications when dealing with mental health illness, often times we just can’t look at situations from a different angle.

Therapist can help guide you to understand the core of some of your struggles and can help you work towards helping resolve some and finding a bit of hope no matter how small it is at first.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
