I'm 24, and depressed. It sounds like a cliche in today's society, but it doesn't change the fact that it's still the truth... I have a lot of people around me, and I have their support, but every time I start talking about what's really on my mind and what's bothering me, I can see they aren't either comfortable nor glad that I'm telling them all those things (I'm not saying they should thank me for opening up, but I think I shouldn't feel like I'm burdening them and making them more nervous when I talk about the stuff that's hurting me). I don't know what's wrong... It feels like I really don't have the strength to do anything. I know I should, but I can't. It's just hard. Living is hard. A lot of people will hurt you, and a lot of people will make you happy, but sometimes I feel like the happiness isn't worth so much pain. I'm not suicidal, far from it, but I think I understand why people think about it so much... It feels like I'm always taking shallow breaths, and never really breathing like I should. It sucks. I know there's probably more people out there, like me, having difficult time, and I just want you to know that, eventually, everything is going to be OK. I can feel it... Much love. S.S.

Sounds like you need to find a good therapist to talk to. Then you won't be making the people around you uncomfortable and you can get the help and support you need. (and that shallow breathing thing? that's a sign of anxiety - and the right therapist can help you with that too!)
ReplySometimes friends aren't good advisors, Maybe it's not that you make them feel uncomfortable I think they just don't know how to help.
