This can't mean anything good...

The summer holidays ended, school started again and I see some people for the first time in months... But something just seems to be wrong. I've noticed, that for some reasons, I've started to avoid situations I wasn't afraid of before. People I've known for years seem suddenly so distant and unfamiliar. I'm pretty depressed like almost all the time, but now I really feel that getting the grip of anything is impossible. In home, I feel more anxious than anywhere else, I want to get out and start living but feel like a unwanted guest anywhere else. Like many of my depression- periods, I wish that this goes away in couple of weeks too, but this time this feels somehow different... And much worse.

I can relate! (It's amazing how many depressive symptoms I can relate to.) I felt that way before I started taking antidepressants... which cured most of the anxiety and feeling that I was unwanted, by allowing me to focus on the people and realize they're not so bad after all; that I CAN be friends with them. I'm not a drug pusher; I'm just saying that for me the drug worked way better than anything anyone could say, because I didn't concentrate on the people talking to me long enough to realize that they could be legit after all!
