But I don't want to go into too much at the moment - all I do know is that depression has been on and off for me and at the moment it feels like i'm slipping back into it. I don't know why or how - it's just happening that I'm having a bad spell - even though I have a job, a girlfriend, I still feel like I'm an anomaly. Numb to most emotions. Barely going through the motions that day by day life is like.

Hi, fighting_the_tide
welcome to the forums, what you describe is the typical things that go with depression, have you had a chat with your doc about this or on any medication.
you can feel comfortable here, as we all understand depression and how it can impact on our lives

I have been on and off medication (mirtazapine) - but at the moment am struggling with the numbness. It's almost like I can't feel anything (I could feel physical pain if it was inflicted but emotional? not right now)

Hi, welcome to the forum!

I'm beginning to see why people don't like me. After all - if I don't like me - how will anyone else?
And if being me doesn't work - what next? I can't be someone else, that'd feel wrong to start with....

People can see the nice of you even if you find that hard to believe. Depression does affect how we perceive ourselves which isn't necessarily how other people see us.
