Really? I am in an awkward state between quite happy with my life and incredibly depressed. Recent changes to medication have led to me being more happy but so.ewhat worried about my relience on prescribed drugs. How abouty You?

AllpurposecleanOP•

so you are on depression medication then? it can really help some people, i know what you mean about PD , im on nothing right now, but I am feeling pretty great, and in love. just lonely and missing my SO. thanks for asking as well. I think you will be alright, medication sometimes takes a while to regulate in your system.

2
Salnex•

Yeah I am on anti depressants, and ritalan for ADHD as well. Both medications are fairly new to Mr and am still getting used to the side effects, and taking hem regularly that sort of stuff

3
AllpurposecleanOP•

oh alright, I use to be on those both actually in highschool.make sure if within a month or so you lt your dr know if they arent working properly, sometimes it takes a while to find the right combo of medications for the right person, stay strong

2
Salnex•

Yeah, I think I am actually pretty lucky in that reguard. I have found a combo meds almost straight away that work really well with me. I doubt many have luck.

Salnex•

Not great. Went to a party last night to celebrate a friends birthday, but I got too drunk and didn't even make it to the club. Ended up crying to a friend about how much I like my crush when I got home, who also was at the party.

Now it's Easter break and I have to go back home, but I don't really want to as I just want to spend more time with my crush as we're both going on placement next year and won't see each other. He's also a really good friend of mine, but I'm just scared we won't stay in contact as he is a crap texter.

Honestly feeling really lonely. I can't express how much I need someone in real life who I can relate to on a personal level. Doesn't even have to be a SO, just a good friend who I can trust with my problems or feelings.

4
AllpurposecleanOP•

oh i know the feeling, all i want is to talk with my bf and see him in person, ive needed that for a long time. I think you will be ok, just chill and maybe someone will come to you, like they did me.

3
[deleted]•

Where did your bf go? Travelling somewhere?

And yeah that's been my goal. I just started uni and I've been working hard at being more confident, as I've found that not being confident has gotten me nowhere. It's taken a long time but recently I've seen self improvement in this area, and I hope it will pay off so I can find myself friends and maybe a SO.

AllpurposecleanOP•

thats a wondeful thing to work on, you can toatally do it! yes my bf is always gone actually, hes suppose to be here soon so im excited!

Ditto to this, I've been trying but it seems like nobody is up for conversing in person and those who are share nothing in common.

3
[deleted]•

Find a place where you share things in common. Joining a club or doing an activity that includes socialising are great places/things to do. It sucks being lonely but in my experience the only solution is to try to do something about it, even if it doesn't work. I've been trying to find someone as well and it is hard, but I know it's rewarding at the end.

I've been looking and my area seems to be a barren wasteland for those kinds of get-togethers. Anything on Meetup near me is either not inclusive or practically a business meeting.

I also want to join a sports club but all of those are too serious, since I'm terrible and just want to have a good time.

In a bit of a rut at the moment. Had the most stressful period of my life between February 2014 - November 2014 as I had to get ready for my PhD defence. Thankfully that went okay, and last month I went back home (still had some work related things to sort out) and currently looking for work. Been going on interviews and whatnot so I hope it's only a matter of time before something comes up, but not knowing when makes it difficult to relax and enjoy the time off.

Tired and sick. I have not hung out with my friends in weeks. I tried to go out last night but my head cold told me to go home :(

I'm worried that the person I'm becoming is going to be so different from the person my boyfriend started dating that he's going to want to break up.

At the moment, kind of fucking hungover. I need my hangover meds (combo of B12, gravol, Advil) but I'm still at my friend's house and currently hating life.

I slept with a beautiful guy last night, it's my second time seeing him and he's quite interesting. All his motives, dreams, and goals fascinate me. I love his aspiration and the energy I sense in him. His soft touch, gawky voice, and nervous hands made him more attractive. I appreciated talking to him a lot and we mostly laid down on his bed back in Brooklyn. Then when I left I felt empty, but I don't want to love, I'm scared and I'm incapable of loving since I'm such a lustful person. Fuck I hate feelings.

This is one of the most honest and beautiful things I've ever heard.

His name was Parker, a big chocolate lab. We found him walking down the street about three years ago and tried to find his owners to no avail. He ended up staying in our home

A little bored and lonely because my friends are out of town. I had some good sex last night, though, so I shouldn't complain. I'm always moving the goalposts.

2
StorypleaseTell me a story. Please.•

I'm good, I'm just lonely. And on the edge of some big changes in my life. I just started a business, I'm gonna move out this year, and we're leaving the state. All my friends keep getting significant others and just sort of forgetting about me. It seemed like there used to be a lot of people around and now I can't find anyone. I'm good at making friends, but part of me doesn't want to start pursuing strong relationships when I'm just gonna leave town in a few months.

Additionally, all the money is in the business right now. It's going well, but I'm gonna be living on the bare minimums for a few months.

dotPanicIs purple still metro?•

Just got home from 3 days in Germany, and felt so super high on life. Wanted to just work out til my arms fell off, then buy a whole new wardrobe. Now I've woken and don't feel 1/10 of it. I may start uni, may not. Can't find work, probably won't. I can easily see the super depressed part of my life, but also how I'm not really in a position to be sad, since I got so many opportunities.

Right now, I'm terrible. Today was supposed to be awesome. Soccer game, dog adoption event, spend time at bfs, go to work, then go sleep over at bfs.

Well, we lost the soccer game. Coach bitched me out. He said I was playing "too aggressive" which gave the opposing players a chance to score. I was playing extra aggressive, but only because he gave me shit defenders. I don't known what he was thinking. He put strikers back as defence. They had issues dropping back accordingly and the forwards had issues keeping it on the other side of the field. Too many times someone dribbled straight down the middle to our goal with no opposition. I'm not going to stand there while they prepare shoot, many of them know I'm not a jumper, so they'd shoot high. So I rush them screaming "Keeper!" It worked many times, but twice they managed to get it in. And I got chewed out for it.

After my game I was supposed to go to an adoption event for a dog place I want to volunteer at. I chickened out. I went all the way there, had a panic attack, and drove away.

I text my boyfriend, he said I could come over in an hour. So I drove around for an hour because I didn't want to explain to dad how I freaked out and didn't go. After an hour my bf texts me and tells me he's not feeling well. God damn it. This is supposed to be "us" weekend since his parents are out of town. But it hasn't been us at all. Thursday night his friend was there, and actually brought his PC and decided he was staying over all weekend. Yesterday, his friend was there. My boyfriend doesn't seem to understand. He wanted to have sex with me for the first time, and he acted weird when I wanted his friend out of the house when we did it. So his friend went and got food, we did it. Then that night I was going to get high the first time. His friend joined in again, and invited his gf. Fuck him. I wanted my first time to be just with my SO. I only ended up getting slightly buzzed. So now today, I don't get to be with him again because he's sick. I bet his friend is still fucking there too. We didn't get any us time and its really upsetting me. I told him this and he didn't respond. He might be playing league. I'm trying to not be needy, but damn. I'm so shitty right now. U might call in sick to work.
