A sad place for sad people to be sad.

Have fun!

This community is for people with depression. Memes and general discussion about depression are encouraged and welcome.

Bi-polar people are also allowed to post here but only sometimes.(joke)

This community is aimed at being inclusive for all people with depression and as such should be free of racism, homophobia, trans-phobia, sexism, patriarch and all other forms of hate-speech.

Trolls will be banned!

Thnx

4 years in therapy. There is some progress. But, things haven’t really changed. I am just too lonely . Perhaps, always will be. I don’t have friends, I keep getting ghosted. Perhaps, I am just a terrible person who doesn’t deserve to be alive.. I don’t know.

Apologies if you've tried this but have you looked for activities that do meetups? Things like book clubs or gardening? Finding people in more natural social settings

I did look them up. Haven’t found them in my city. I will search once more.

Sometimes cafes and coffee shops have things like this, worth looking into
