In need of friends...

My dieting and fitness plan is back on track, however I am caught in the abyss of depression. I've spent the last 7 years mostly in solitude, and it's starting to get to me in a big way. Staying positive has become increasingly difficult. The silence is deafening. The loneliness crushes. I really could use some friends to talk to. I'm on Kik and my username is the same as it is on here.

    Apparently not. I permanently deleted my Kik account today. It's taking alot out of me to not permanently delete myself the Bourdain way.

    Have you spoken with a therapist before? I think you should explore that if you haven't already. Go see your doctor ASAP for assessment.

    Hang in there, man. I sent you a friend request... I'll listen to you.

    I spoke regularly with a therapist a few years ago, for about a year. I'm trying to do what she suggested, but the bandaids aren't big enough for the wounds. I've regressed back to the same depressive state.
