So he stopped talking to me altogether.

Another problem is my mom keeps bugging me to go out and get a job. BUT here's the thing I GOT NO EXPERIENCE I have OLD retail experience that was a week to 2 months long and is from years ago.

Now I just got magazine writing experience and since I don't got a degree no higher quality magazine or newspaper is even going to look my way no matter the amount of experience I have there.

So I pretty much give up on life. I have applied and tried time and time again with dating guys and applying for work etc. And nothing is coming up right I think positive and happy but still nothing works.
no, i think you know precisely what "works", at least, as far as keeping you in your current situation. you have no reason to go out and do ANYTHING. when you really have to take care of yourself there is no time for whining. you get it done.

i have all the empathy in the world for truly depressed people, and you surely are. you are also wallowing and whinging, which is inexcusable, even in a depressed person. i have been depressed on and off my whole life, and i still go out and get it done.

if you don't have any experience, you could go to school. if that hasn't occurred to you, you are probably too busy making excuses.

also- you KNOW that when you tell people horrible things they will turn and run, right? i kinda bet you did that on purpose. its like, " i stuck my finger in the outlet and it shocked me! what do i do now?"

its time to wake up and realize the only person who is gonna change you is YOU. saying "i can't" all the time is inexcusable. even if you feel worthless, you need to do SOMETHING. get off the computer. why can't you take free classes online? freaking stanford and MIT give free classes with certificates online. you could sell stuff on ebay. if you wanted to do something, you would be doing it. you just don't strike me as wanting to.

OP definitely sounds clinically depressed so all of you saying to just get up and do something have no clue how a clinically depressed person works. Having said that, OP definitely needs to get into therapy asap and talk to their doctor. If OP doesn't have insurance, OP should google free mental health care and see what pops up.
