I feel like a dog would support me better than my real daily would! I ****ing hate them, I feel so ugly! I tell my parents that I'm sorry that I'm depressed for many years and I have social anxiety, but they flick me off thinking that I'm being stupid! I tell then I'm sorry for being socially slower than most kids my age, I've had a hard time trying to grow up like other kids and teens! I can only look forward to my community I've met online, they're more family to me (not Tumblr). My ****ing family... why do I love them anyway? I hate that because I was born from these people that half of me loves them! I wish I had a dog... I wish I had something to, I don't know, salvage me from this mess. Why is it so hard for me to be normal? I try really hard, and then I realize when I "try" it I'm not just doing it like a normal person. I think something's wrong with me...

I'm so sorry you are having it so tough right now. Families sometimes just on don't understand how we feel. I wish they could be more understanding for you. Sounds like they have their own social problems.

Hi Lucky!

Depression is a sneaky sneaky thing that has one big but very effective trick where you end up focussing very strongly on the wrong thing, thus hiding the underlying source of the problem. You might want to have a look at these notes and see if it makes sense to you:
