Use the website above to search for local therapists in your area. Your health insurance will cover the costs for most, or all, of them. They're trained to listen and speak to depressed and lonely individuals. I spoke to one for a few weeks when I first got out of college.

This is the perfect answer and accurate...IF you actually intend to get help.

Sure they do. The trouble is you think they don't, because you think you're the only unique special snowflake in our universe who is experiencing these problems. You're too good for therapy, too good for small talk. When others speak to you, you think they are harassing you. I've said it before bro but you don't need therapy or online support. You need a legit psych eval.

If you were a woman you could just type "Im lonely and depressed" in a google search and they would send a helicopter to your house with a team of specialists working around the clock to make you happy. Clowns, jugglers, psychiatrists, chemists...all paid for by men's tax dollars.


If you're a man this is what you get. A punch in the arm and called a *******.

Sucks but not really. You need to talk to someone who has been through it. I never got help talking to people who don't experience extreme depression. They all just assume I'm being a buzzkill/negative and tell me to suck it up. Its not that easy

This no one cares about men chit is insane. No matter what we suggest it's not good enough. Go to therapy, EOD. "But they don't understand!" Go to a men's prayer breakfast, they'll basically fight one another to mentor you. "But...reason!" You have to be a legit retard to believe there is no support. You have to actually be crazy to argue there's no support on a primarily men's forum when you spam depression threads and posts all day, every day, and still get responses.

All of this is false but i will say i don't enjoy or understand small talk, i can do it for short instances and then need time to recharge

Also only several people harassed me. The mentally ill neighbor lady and a few people at the gym. Otherwise i've had no problem with the few people who have talked to me.

You are just twisting things to make me look like the bad guy.

Time to see a therapist, srs. Don't feel bad for needing to talk to someone boyo. Thankfully I have a best brah who I can bounce life thoughts/ideas off of and vice versa.

Bad guy is a bit harsh, don't really think that. I think you have no self-awareness and as I said before, you probably need a psych eval. It doesn't matter if you like or enjoy small talk, it's how you find common ground with people, but it's all about you, right? You expect the world to cater to you, just like in every thread where everyone tells you the same thing, yet you still keep making them. Until you grasp this concept you'll always think others are projecting false ideas on to you. These things are observable though and there is a pattern.

He just wants someone to leverage his bullchit and cosign on every little thing he says. He's not ready for therapy, because his therapist will offer advice and he will ignore it because it doesn't tow the depression party line. He doesn't want his help, he wants his ass kissed.

No it's not. There are so many miscers that have given you advice, and offered to help you on a more intimate and detailed level, yet all you do is provide excuse after excuse.

That's what loneliness is literally not being able to find common ground with anyone. Jesus dude stop posting all of this other chit like I think I want people to cater to me or whatever you are talking about. Just lol

You dont think I try to talk to my coworkers and chit? I cant relate to them.

You think everyone should have to relate to you and that you should have all of these magic things in common in order to find value in relationships.

Of course I don't think you try. You make threads constantly about how no one works and all they do is talk all the time, to the point where you walked out of your job because you couldn't handle them socializing and not working. So which is it?
