No, that person is one example. I've never been "clingy" to anyone else so that's not really a solution.

dunno what to do, im really such a bother for these people but i'm forced to interact with them because of school. are you allowed to read in a nut house? i think it would be cool if my food & accomodation were paid for me & i got to read books all day. & maybe even talk to a nice doctor like my one & talk to weirdos who are so weird i dont really have to mind them that much. <3

If you're just sitting there reading a book people won't know if your actually some sort of genius reading monster or just another hipster douche bag staring at the pages for cred.

What you have to do is loudly say things like "quite, quite," or "I agree", or even better, exclaim "How freudian!" or "This is so existential!" while you're staring at the pages.

Also, laugh frequently, but always justify the laugh by saying something along the lines of "how very droll" or "what delightful wordplay!"

Now you is book learned.

You're welcome

Honestly TyBrax i've read your friends and you do show several signs of differnet mental illness'. I am inclined to believe that you are actually taking medication from your problems, stemming from your personal life and obviously quite terrible upbringing.

However, from personal experience i know that someone in your position is not proud of their position, they do not exclaim it across the internet and rather tell it to thsoe closest to them,

You may think of yourself as socially retarded but i'm sure you're not, if you went to a park in the summer you could happily start a conversation with someone, or even in a library if books are really your thing. You seem to have such distaste with every one else's actions as you deem them to be wrong or confomrist, when someone who truly thought that would let someone do what they wanted. Not complain about it on the internet.

There are people who care about you in the world.
People will miss you if you were gone.
The best way to get back at someone from your past is to make yourself better than them in their eyes. You're going to University, a fantastic achievement as more than half the world cannot even read. If your life was truly as terrible as you make out you would no longer be living with your parents. Believe me. I know.

And if by chance you do actually have a terrible life and it has gone unnoticed by the social services you need to book yourself an appointment with childrens charity Bernardos. They have trained counsellors and young people who are there for you to talk to, they're not asking you to spill your guts, they're not going to dig through your past, but they'll be able to offer you advice and give you things that will help you.

If you're on medication talk through any problems or concerns you may have with your doctor. Keep a diary of how you feel throughout the day. from 9am 12pm 3pm 6pm 9pm
do this every day and show it to your doctor/counsellor.

Just try to realise that no matter how bad it seems there are people out there who can help you, depression and other serious illness' are now extremely common, especially in young women, and they're on the rise.
Exercise, this will make you feel better, try and cut negative people from your life. If this means you now have no friends then so be it. Join a club for people with similar interests. Go meet up with Scottish guy and talk for the day, believe me, talking to someone you never have to see again is miles better, you will not be judged and you will be helping yourself.

Please TyBrax, do try and get help, or at least come to the tinychat so i can speak to you properly, or get mog to give me your MSN or whatever, as gay as this sounds i'm actually a caring person, no matter how much of an asshole someone is on the internet. And i can give you the contact details of charities and groups who may be able to help you.

Or ignore what i said, whatever you feel's best for you.

Nope. Depression is a real illness. "Social Anxiety" is not since everyone has it to some degree, just some people are more lazy than others.

also inb4 retarded "everyone gets depressed". sadness is not the same as depression as any doctor would tell you.

Ok then Ty, but if you ever want someone to talk to irl I live nearby and I'm always willing to listen.

I've lived a lot of my life as a weirdo who was awkward and disliked by people, I never really knew what to do or how to talk in social situations, to be honest there are still gaps where I don't know how to react or express myself, according to my doctor it was aspergers but I think that's just a bullshit label and I refuse to be tied down by it.

I just know how it feels to not really fit in and feel bad for not, I wish I could help.

let me clear something up for you.

you can not legally be given a placebo without knowing there is a possibility you might recieve one. You have to sign a waver saying you are okay with participating in a study where you might recieve a placebo.

every drug you are perscribed is real and should work.

what mg are you on?]
you should have been on 10mg's for one month then upped the dosage
if they haven't done this then request they do, also ask if you should go onto citalopram, 10mg's for a while again and then working up.

This will allow your brain to create more dopamine and SSRI's, this in turn will make you feel better, although you will feel ill for about 2 weeks as your body is forced to create these neurotransmitters.

Feeling like you're a burden to people is a sign of depression, google a depression checklist and if you tick more than 7 boxes see a doctor. Urgently.

Stopping socialising gradually is another sign of depression, and i suggest you treat this as your preliminary condition right now, at least until you get checked out.

also you know nothing of my life, and i, unlike you don't talk about it here so i don't expect you to.
