I Have Depression, Anxiety, and Self-mutilation Issues

Depression is a thief and a liar. It steals your friends and convinces you that you're not worth love. It steals your motivation and your dreams, it tells you that you're not worth happiness. It steals your family, your life, you and tells you no one understands and that you are alone.

Everything depression tells you is a lie. You are worth love, you are worth happiness. You are not alone.

Been there. But I don't think it's a lie. I'm currently alone, and friendless. Been sick for days on end did anyone of my friends or family contacts ask me if I'm doing better? No. Do I care? not really, I just noted they are not worth me. Still it all fuels my past hurts, rejections and whatnot.

Many of my net friends approached me when they needed me not the other way around- that was I kicked them the hell out of my life.

...but yea, no one managed to handle me till now and they think I'm crazy.

Most people see genius as crazy, so they're probably blinded by your radiance.

We tend to draw ourselves in and not want to ask for help - we don't want to be a burden, or the depression tells us they won't help, or have ulterior motives. So it appears as though our friendships are one-sided, but if you directly say to your family or friends 'I need you', you may be surprised by the response.

You matter to someone. Give them the opportunity to show you. :)

Thanks for the nice words. I appreciate them. I don't tend to run behind those who don't care though. I guess that if they don't like me, they can just not talk to me and I can deal with it, but I hate it when people are hypocrites and pretend to like you for personal gain, that includes family.

My anxiety shoots the the roof I'm on ativan and it don't do nothing. A lot of my depression come from my past and the things I'm going through now.
