My car needs expensive work done. Affording it is tough, but I think I can manage it. I am depressed, but not severely.

I wished that I could figure out what is causing my depression

Just trying to not fall off this cliff into that pit. Right now I'm trying to talk myself into getting dressed. It's a hard sell.

Im sorry, but geez i give myself an A plus plus plus if i change my underpants. In already on top just for wearing underpants. Or is that, "just for wearing just underpants"?

Its not so much "move the goalposts" as it is, "start from where you are." Theres a reason old folks homes dont have football fields.

Sometimes it seems like everyone hates me. People mock me and sometimes it seems cruel and mean-spirited. Someone said I'm not their type and when I asked why they said it's because they like intelligent people. And that just sets me off on a downward spiral of negative thoughts, about how I'm not only stupid but lazy and ugly too, and I've never accomplished anything in life, and I have no redeeming qualities or features. Then people mock me for getting emotional but that only makes it worse. It's hard to go through life realizing no one has ever wanted or desired you, they've only ever been stuck with you, that you've always been a burden and nothing more.

When people make insulting remarks, it says more about them than it does about you. To say you're not their type because they only like intelligent people shows that person to be kind of a jerk themself. You don't have to buy into an opinion like that. Don't allow others to lead you to foolish conclusions. From your well written post it is clear that you have normal intelligence.

I'm doing fairly okay in staying out of the dark pit. Been sleeping good and keeping up with my housework.
