Hi there,
I just wanted to reply to your intro, cos you sound like a nice person, and us new/shy people could do with some friends round here.
I've been on a couple of groups before and always felt a bit of an outsider - like they all new each other and I didnt really fit in. So this time I decided to introduce myself properly and see what happened. The other groups I'm in focus mainly on surviving suicide of a loved one, which helped me alot for a few months after my friend's death, but its the depression I have the hardest time dealing with. Also I feel like I can share more of my experience here because I have lived alot longer with depression than with my friend's suicide, so my 'advice' might be a little more valid.
I've been away from my friends for 3 months now. I'm home on my summer vacation until next week. Its hard when there's no one around for you to really talk to - I have trouble with that, even when there are people around I feel comfortable with. I've got one 'sms buddy' who I talk to abit and one friend who I see once or twice a month who I can talk to, and I'm lucky for that, but most of my buddies round here I just go out for a laugh with - if I'm not the life and soul of the party they practically ignore me. But next week I'm going back to uni, 300 miles away from my parents which is great.
I think its great you tagged on to my post, and look, you got a good number of replies! I think you are well on the way to chatting away with anyone around here.
