Please kill me and put me down like a dog,thanks.

Hi all fellow wearers of the cloak of loneliness,it's nice to be here.For years it never bothered me at all,but now its driving me up the bloody walls,and quite honestly,if i didnt have this computer i would go insane! Im always polite,never rude and yet,no matter where i turn to,be it Twitter,Facebook,YouTube,i never get a reply to my messages,and yet,others do,its almost as though my postings are invisible or something and i just feel like giving up.Sorry,i did get one response on a forum,yes,i got told to F*** OFF! Why does this keep on happening,i just dont understand it?
 And in real life,the situation is even worse.If i didnt call,text,email the people i consider to be my friends,i would never hear from them.It would seem nobody has any interest in me whatsoever.On the few occasions i do get a response to a text message,i get told off for being nosey,an ex of mine actually said "why do you want to know all my ins and outs".I thought that was what it was all about,taking an interest in your friends,but it has now reached the point im actually scared to ask anyone anything,do people not like being questioned nowadays as to how they are getting on in life?
 And then theres my night class,when it finishes up,everybody talks to one another.....except one person,ME!! Its almost as though i have two heads or something,im the black sheep of the class,so i just get up and leave rather than stare into space hoping somebody might actually have the courtesy to talk to me.Now i wear nice clothes,always smell nice but it would seem this isnt good enough,maybe its my body language as i am very shy and so forth.Im ok on a one to one situation,but do struggle dreadfully in a group of people.Now,if i saw somebody on the other hand who didnt look at ease,edgy,nervous etc,i know i would at least have the manners to talk to them and try to help put them at ease,but thats just me.
 And then there is my neighbours,never had a christmas card ever off anybody,i say hello to a couple of them when i pass them and they totally blank me.Its a bit hard to take really,i even used to bring all their bins in after collection,trying to be neighbourly,and where does that get me? I take out my rubbish a couple of hours later,only to find one of them has dumped their rubbish in my bin,despite their own one being empty.I really feel as though im being victimized.Its not as though im a killer,rapist or peadophile,i would do anything to help anybody.
 Yes,i have resorted to this sadly,desperation perhaps? Who knows,did a search on Google and this site came out on top and so i live in hope that things might actually turn for the better and that i see some light at the end of the tunnel,usually when i do see this,it is a train rolling towards me!
 Anyway,i think i have made my point as best as i possibly can,thanks very much for taking the time and trouble to read,and i look forward to hearing others feedback who can relate to what im saying.
 
Thank-You.

Hi,

you experiencing something common in many people with depression and soften wrapped in with social anxiety...the belief that something is wrong with you. in reality, if anything, the only reason why people are avoiding you is because you belief there is something wrong with you personally and that people will treat you differently, so people tend to look past you, On the other hand, if you was out going and initiated conversations, people would have no choice to speak to you. It isn't easy to behave like that if you lack the confidence and haven't had the practice.

I know that in my most depressed times I haven't been able to initiate social interaction and people started looking past me, it was like a spiral, no one spoke to me and I thought there was something wrong with. The only thing wrong with me was that I was depressed. On the other hand, when I am well I start conversations and people suddenly start responding to me. Sometimes I have bad interaction, people are rude etc, but I don't think 'oh I must be the problem' I look past it.

I think you will benefit from some kind of talking therapy.

I am sorry that you feel so lonely. it is an awful feeling and I very often feel the same. All people deserve friends and warmth, and that includes you,

Take care

Love Steve

Pip

Welcome  +-_

The members here are friendly no matter how they feeling  %^% .  Depression can be quite an isolating illness ~ I suffered in silence for many years and it can be quite difficult to find the right place.  You will get support here though  %^%

Hi and welcome to the forum  +-_

I agree with what has been said before, depression is lonely, I often end up isolating myself when at my worst.

Hi

Don't really know what to say - I'm relatively new to this myself - but just wanted to let you know your post has been read and not ignored.

Take care

Thanks very much for that plumb.You know,just to finish off this post,i am at a complete loss really,as to why this bloody neighbour of mine has so many friends,and yet,i have resorted to this in an attempt to try and find somebody to talk to,its pathetic! This neighbour of mine,who i turned to for some help when i tried my very best to save a dying baby pigeon's life ..... do you know what he said to me ? " I WILL FEED IT TO MY DOG "...... And he wasnt joking,he was deadly serious! Quite unbelievable,thats the sort of quality of neighbour i have,meanwhile,he is so damn popular whilst i shuffle around wearing the cloak of lonelieness,i just dont get it,and i know i am a much better person than he is,yet,all i have for company is this idiot machine,its all a little bit hard to take.
