I'm very depressed about my life, i feel like I don't have one anymore now that I don't work and i've lost friends and am not close to my own family. I feel like I don't have a purpose for being here. I'm embarrassed at how my life turned out and therefore don't want to deal with people. I avoid talking to people and therefore people have stopped bothering with me. I don't even want to make new friends if i had an opportunity to because i'm embarrassed about my life. All this does is make me isolated and deeply depressed. I hate waking up in the morning. I have panic attacks that scare me and i hate being alone when my bf has to leave for work. And to make things worse now my bf's family problems are causing problems for us and that is stressing me out and making me feel like not wanting to be here. I don't know what to do. I went to see my T yesterday and the hour was up in no time and i didn't even really get to say everything i needed to say. I just feel hopeless and just want to crawl in a hole and stay there.

dear anjelmarie,
Many hugs to you...  I'm so sorry to hear you are feeling so down right now. But you got to therapy yesterday... that's great! There is bound to be some fallout from that which can carry over in our subconscious. It's not easy to open up and be vulnerable for 50 minutes and then have to go back to "regular life" like nothing happened. It is very brave. Please be gentle with yourself. You are working on it, even if it feels difficult today. Is there some comforting thing you can do for yourself? Maybe a trip to the library or to a cafe? Maybe you could strike up a conversation there and meet someone new... Meanwhile we're here for you at pc.   Elana

I wish I had something supportive to say, you sound really down and it makes me sad to know that someone else is suffering. Unfortunately you are stuck in a horrible cycle of depression and isolation. The more depressed you get, the more you isolate yourself and the less support you get the more depressed you get. When we are on a low it is really hard to work on friendships and relationships, but in the end it is these relationship that has the potential to help us a lot in the healing process...
