Yet again, I can’t trust anyone. My “friend” left me last night cause I told her what I trully was. She said she can’t be friends with someone who’s depressed and stopped talking to me all together. I just feel like shutting myself from the world and go mute. I’ll just talk in sigh language when I have to.just completely shut myself from the world and hopefully die before I’m 20 🙁

You don’t know me, but that is 100% okay. I know exactly what you are going through for the simple fact that I fell back into major depression not to long ago. I lost a lot of my friends, most to be honest, because they thought that I was going through a horrible change being distant and not talking much. I talked to my mom about therapy to help with everything and she agreed. She knew what was going on way before I did, so she had been keeping an eye on me. I’m not telling you that you should talk to your parents about it, but consider it. My depression started after Easter this year because I lost my best friend, who knew everything about me, to suicide. What made it worse was a week later on the 27th, was his funeral, also my birthday. It’s not good to hope for death upon yourself or anyone. I, myself, was mute for almost four whole months. I slowly came out of it, but it’s hard to use my voice as much. You don’t know it yet, but you’re going to make it far in life. Believe it or not, but you will. I know it because everyone has a path set out for them. You may take detours, good and bad, but you’ll make it to where you are suppose to be. The only death that I know of that is meant to happen, is not from suicide, but natural. You’ll go far, love. Believe it. Because it will happen. I have faith in you.
Obviously, she’s a ***** who doesn’t deserve your friendship.
I hate keeping silent too. I don’t feel like I should be here if I can’t speak my mind.
But on the flip side, it’s not fair of me to bring the happy people down all the time. It’s a tough balance. AND, to give her the benefit of the doubt, She probably just doesn’t get it. It’s hard to if you haven’t been here. I know I didn’t when my friend was depressed 14 yrs. ago. Although, I didn’t dis her like that, I couldn’t relate & wasn’t understanding enough when she distanced herself from me.
So sorry your friend is such a disappointment. I’m sure you have others that won’t react like that if you need to open up to someone again. Just keep in mind the points I made above: They probably wont totally get it so cut them some slack & try not to be a complete Debbie Downer when you’re together.
Good luck!
Delisnak,
I agree with NoLifeSupport in that your friend just may not completely understand what you are going through. Even in 2014, depression is a topic widely misunderstood by quite a few people. Perhaps try to explain it again to her with the mindset that this may be an area she is unfamiliar with. Best of luck.
