Just really depressed

Recently I’ve just been feeling more and more depressed and like I’ve got nowhere to turn. I am so low on energy all the time and truly I can be bothered with anything, it means nothing to me, I just want to be in bed all the time. I’m hiding this from everyone I know and feel like I have to continue to be this upbeat person - plus I hate not being my best at work and housework. It makes me feel worthless.

I feel like I have no one in this world - my partner is busy and I feel like she never listens when I try to start conversations, plus I can’t be bothered to explain how I’m feeling so I plaster on a smile. My friends, and I have so few of them I can count them on one hand, have completely lost interest in me. They ignore my messages, ignore any requests to meet up. And I am the type of person who needs other people’s support. It’s not their fault but they just all have a hoard of other, better friends. My mum lives at the other end of the country and I wish I could just pack it all in and go and see her for a while but I’m not sure my partner, landlord and job would be keen on that.

I feel bad for posting in here but I honestly haven’t got a soul to turn to. I just wish I could feel happy.

I'm sorry you're feeling so unhappy and lonely. Sounds like it's time to make some new friends, though I know that can be difficult at the best of times. Are you friendly with anyone at work? Do you have any hobbies or interested in something that could get you out of the house and meeting new people?
