Depression - General - Facepunch Forum

Don't commit suicide, think before you act because there won't be a second chance. Sound like this kid at my school who looks depressed/angry all the time. He wears a black tench coat and keeps to himself :ohdear:

[QUOTE=The Salmon;19545376]Thanks a bunch everybody :) Also for the last time, I'm not fat anymore.[/QUOTE] Just keep telling yourself that

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;19545637]Just keep telling yourself that[/QUOTE] That just made my day hahaha

I'm self centered in the respect, I use to think I got a kick out of helping people, but lack of appreciation and just people being users I stopped being a fool. You come into this world on your own, might aswell leave it doing well for yourself. I think too much and get too philosophical, and being told I was a worthless shit by my drunken mother as a child just left me to boil. After school I really do hope things improve, but for now I've exams I couldn't give a fuck about to finish. The only advice I can give you, is to find things you are interested in, become good at them and excel at the given subject/hobby. Becoming creative is a good way to express hate/emotion and don't think "people might view this as weird". Fuck them if that's the case. Everyone has their problems and you can only hide them for so long. Drawing, writing or playing an instrument. A drum kit is something you can sit down, bash randomly and have fun as something like a guitar would just frustrate a beginner. I don't know how to stop thinking too much, I only wish I knew how to fix that myself.

this has turned into the in-anonymous confessional thread.

[B] I don't know how to stop thinking too much, I only wish I knew how to fix that myself.[/B][/QUOTE] This. I constantly over analyze everything. I even get to the point where I over analyze that I am over analyzing things, then over analyze that I am over analyzing that I over analyze things, looping over and over. You have no idea how good it has felt to let all of this out. You guys are the only people apart from my family that will actually listen to me. <3

listening is a good quality in people. my ma always said.

What you've said pretty much sums up my life. I've felt exactly the same way you've described. I'm Overweight, and into computers, but I don't really get picked on for it. If people bully you about it, the best to do is ignore it because they will realize they are not making an impact on you, and they will eventually stop. I know what you mean about the self centered thing. Everyone is self centered. Everyone's world revolves around them, you just have to try every now and then to take other peoples feelings into account. When you're in a conversation, focus the topic on them, don't go on and on about yourself. If I'm bullied I'll just ignore them. The best thing to do is to find friends who are into the same things as you. I don't know if this helps, but I went through a pretty bad time myself especially at the start of High School, and I feel fine now. I hope you feel better too.

I've been depressed for around 2 or 3 years.

I get like this sometimes also, but I always suck it up because I have goals in life that I don't let anything stand in the way of. My advise is to set some of your own long term goals, sure it won't fix your current problems but it gives a certain "light at the end of the tunnel" to look forward to.

Sounds like me. Only shit hit the fan around 6-8th grade, and the beginning of high-school. But, after I realized I think too much, I got everything sorted out. Now I'm happier than I ever was. Just takes time, bro.
