Look guys, now he's talking to himself. Can anybody see how I know?Hey Tx69,
I know how you feel, I'm 19 and I feel the same a lot of time. Ever since I was 17 I have been on my own and it seems like since I have been on my own I am so lonely and depressed with no one to talk to. Lately I have tried some new things to kind of throw myself out there to find friends and people I want to be around. First, take things one at a time, it's better to start something and finish it then start a bunch of things and leave them unfinished... make a list of important things you need to get done and do them one at a time, when you finish one thing move on to the next oneSecond, Find something that interest you like a hobby or something (mine is rc cars) and look online there should be other people in your area with the same interest that have a group or team that meet every month, go to the meetings you will be able to find people that hold the same interest as you which is a good start to making friends. Third, set goals for yourself, this can be a simple as to tell yourself to take a walk everyday around the block or if you like reading finishing a book, when you meet your daily goals it will motivate and uplift you. Finally exercise, Im not sure how your money is but I signed up to a gym and started working out everyday, 1 i got out of the house at least once a day and 2 I am more physically fit and better looking
this will help your confidence for meeting girls. If you don't want a gym membership then exercise outside for an hour or two.
Try some of these options for like 3 weeks to a month and I know you will feel better. I felt the same as you do and sometimes I still feel this way but I did these things and it helped me get my mind off of my problems for awhile.
I hope you feel better soon
and I hope I helped a little

you need to find a licensed psychologist that you can follow with to help you work through your issues and you need a family practice doctor to prescribe you an antidepressant. don't do one without the other.

A physical job is very rewarding. I still feel like that on days I have no work sometimes (diagnosed with depression at 13) but nothing is better at making you feel selfless, can make you feel you can achieve something or push you out of your comfort zone like hard physical labor. I'm not trying to say I'm any better than you (let's be honest, I doubt I'll get back into college and I'm only 19) but trust me you will hate it at first but learn to love nearly killing yourself then allowing yourself a reward at the end of the day. You'll learn discipline, you'll learn practical skills, to think for yourself, to care for others etc. If you don't consider yourself the academic type then a job as a groom or something is a good idea and there's no bullshit. Physical work I did today = reward/money with nothing in between. Or better still, charity work. As selfish as it seems it makes you feel especially good about yourself when you have to help people who need you.

Get a job, (most retail jobs dont even need a resume, just focus work hard and get ahead... and better pay) focus on that for a little while to save up enough money to get your feet planted. Pretty much what I did, started working day after I turned 16, never had a weekend off ever... but when the time came to really start living life, I had a car and over 9,000 in the bank.
Lately my routine is school, work, sleep. Repeat. However I have been introducing workouts, giving the health of my body to focus on, and of course you have to make time for social events every now and then... no local friends? Go make some.

Now that you mention it, I believe you may be correct.
He should still take my advice, IMHO.

You know, I've said since we got our dog, that if I had my lab when I was 18, it would have been easy pickings at the parks around college campus. That damn dog brings so much hot young ass in for a conversation you wouldn't believe it. Every friggin' girl within 100 yards wants to come over and pet him and throw his frisbee.
Get a dog bro, and a really cute one too, one that isn't scarry. Instant girlfriend, I promise! They show you have some level of responsibility. You have to provide food, shelter, walk it, get your ass up and let him out. Women prefer men who don't lay on the couch at 18 and just get blown out all day. There are a lot of great rescues that you can save a dog that's an adult and skip the puppy part, although that stage brings in the most girls.
I really miss being single......*staring into the bedroom with wife sleeping in same bed for way to many fucking years LOL*

So true. When I'm working as a "carpenter" doing basically exterior maintenance, I love it. It's 90 F outside and I'm on a 3 story roof shirtless, sweating my dick off, killing 200 wasps, getting stung by 3 or 4, and I couldn't be happier. Then I leave work, and I get to be my old trashy self. No shoes ever, a couple of 40's, a bowl of bud, and I'm in heaven. Besides, learning an old trade is actual usable in real life. Or you could go spend 120K to learn how to trade stocks, if you're into the stupid things.

Don't worry, things will get better, I suggest you try to get out more, I would recommend you try hanging around bus and train stations, greyhound is great but anyone will do and the best part is you don't need any money to go their and hang around for awhile, just smile at people and be friendly and out going, asking for cigarettes is a great way to break the ice, you will be amazed with how fast you start meeting people, before you know it you will be having people buy you dinners, and take you to hotels and parties and you'll be getting some action, people will want to blow you and even offer to give you money, you will have an exciting new life before you know it- don't give up

IMO dogs are a social bridge. I moved to a new neighborhood a few months ago, I was walking the mutts and I tried saying hi to some neighborhood kids, they screamed "stranger danger" and ran to their house. I think they were just fucking with me, but my dog got out and guess who was playing fetch with her for like an hour? And who was happy to tell me about how they tried to play monkey in the middle with Ko-beez, and the dog kept winning? I went from child molester, to the kid with the cool dog owner in one introduction.
I would say get a dog, but you're not at that age yet.

It cheers me up wen my cat sits on me and licks me.
Sometimes, yes, a little affection is all you need... AFFECTION!!!!!
Get a cat if you deem yourself incapable of caring for a dog.

Ok. That's fucking disgusting.
Fine, wet sandpaper. Take my kitten, all she does is lick my fingers and try to kill my shadow.
