Thanks everyone. To clarify just in case you're not aware, I am not a teenager. I'm in my late 20s which makes this even more awkward. The other odd thing about it is when I was a teenager, I was not...
I wouldn't describe my situation as fun or fortunate. It's not. In fact, it's the exact opposite. It makes me sick to the point where I just want to cry all day because I hate feeling like this. For...
I should've included that I am a virgin with no prospects whatsoever so I don't plan on having sex in the near future. I just want these urges to go away. Before this happened, I considered myself to...
Hi everyone, I haven't been on here in years but I'm having an issue that is a very awkward and embarrassing to talk about. I don't know how or why this is happening but it seems I am aroused all the...
Well like I said, he has cut way back on his alcohol intake since we've been dating so I'll give him that and since no other incidents have happened, I'm trying to let this go and move on. It just...
Thanks for the advice. I think alcohol has played a major part in our problems especially since I don't drink and never have, so I can't understand how "good" it makes him feel. He is doing a lot...
Thanks for the input but I'm not going to break up with him unless he actually physically cheats. If every couple broke up because a significant other flirted, half of the couples in the world would...
Hi everyone, I used to come on here all the time but took a little break. I really need some relationship advice. I'm 27 but this is my first boyfriend and although I'm getting older, I'm really...
I have posted several times before but I don't come on here enough to keep up with my posts. Anyway, my life is in shambles. It all started when I was in grade school. I was extremely shy and was...
I know this is not the place for relationship advice but my relationship status or lack thereof is making me depressed. I guess I should explain my relationship history a bit more. I never really...
I've never posted in this category before although I have several times in depression. I don't know what's wrong with me. It seems one week I feel fine, not great, but good enough to get things done...
I am no longer involved in a church and I don't plan on going anytime soon. I've gone for most of my life and it didn't get me anywhere. Besides I don't have to attend a church to practice my faith...
I'm sorry but I'm not like most people who go to the doctor (or in this case, therapist) for every little thing. It seems most people here only suggest trying therapy. That's pretty much the only...
I don't want to see a therapist mainly because they will just prescribe pills and I do not want to be put on those. I don't care if they help other people. I refuse to be drugged up. I don't even...
There's no way I can see a therapist while living at home and I cannot afford to live on my own being in debt and broke. My family will find out and that would be really embarrassing. I can't just be...
Thanks for the advice. I didn't really want to be too dependent on this site but after hearing about a death of an old high school friend, I needed a place to vent. She was killed in an alcohol...
I haven't posted in a while because I was trying to see if I could deal with everything on my own but I realized that I can't. I have been suffering from depression for many years and it all started...
I forgot about this thread. This is what I mean about being invisible. When nothing is posted, it gets booted to another page and then i have to explain myself over again if I happen to start another...
You don't have to apologize. I should have stayed out of it because instead of trying to help you, I put my negative two cents in and caused even more damage. I'm sorry....
How can I be anything but negative if I've been depressed for nearly 15 years??? This disease has robbed me of everything. I had the worst adolescence ever because of it.. no boyfriends, no friends,...
I'm sure if you knew me in person, you'd be gone like everyone else. No one likes me except my family and they pretty much are obligated to but like I said before, if it wasn't for them, i'd be...
I don't care anymore. Let's face it, I was cursed from birth and there's nothing I.. or anyone else.. can do about it....
no you're fine, i was just venting my frustration in the difficulty of finding a future husband and the confusion in not caring anymore or not even wanting one since apparently love doesn't last...
Reading all of this shatters every ounce of hope I have left of getting married. I'm 25 and never even had a boyfriend so it probably wouldn't happen anyway but knowing there's a chance I'll still be...
My mom has called me ugly many times and I've had at least 5 guys tell me the same thing. Needless to say, I've never had a boyfriend and probably never will at the rate I'm going, Surprisingly, I...
It's hard to feel good about myself when people have laughed at me for most of my life... and to top it off, everyone in my family is good looking except for me, which makes family picture time even...
I don't have enough money to see a counselor plus i doubt they can help me anyway. I've been like this for 15 years and I'm sure i'll continue being like this until i'm old... if I even make it...
I have been off facebook for over a week now and as socially unacceptable as it may sound, it was my main source of communication to the outside world. I don't hang out with people or talk on the...
I tried that site and it doesn't help much. It has a lot of reading and I can't concentrate enough to do too much of that. I think at this point I just need to accept that this is how I'll feel the...
If you didn't commit any crime, then why would you be worried about going to jail?...
Hi, I'm a 25 year old female and I have a pretty good life outwardly but I am suffering all alone inside. My family doesn't know about my depression and anxiety...and I am not going to tell them....
I've been depressed for over 10 years and I feel like this disease has robbed me of my adolescence and it has taken away any hope of me having a normal adulthood. The worst part of it all is I have...
i'm sorry to hear that. how did he die exactly? i've never experienced the death of a friend but my older sister passed away when i was 11, i'm now 24. all i know is that you never get over something...
i understand what you are saying. there's a boy i used to be friends with that i had strong feelings for. well i asked him out and that turned him off so much that he doesn't even want to be friends...
