I have not been feeling very confident or happy lately. In fact, I feel lonely, hopeless, and unhappy with myself. My social life is just not the same as it used to be.
Just how badly am I shooting myself in the foot by not being able to get out of feeling depressed?
I won't even be friends with negative people. I can't imagine women think differently, no one wants to be around a negative nancy.
Confidence isn't some big secret to life or dating. If you aren't happy with your life, change it.

Listen to some music, I do that when im in a funk and i get back to my normal self. Then again, I dont know what songs you listen to.
I don't know any attractive guys who lack confidence. Maybe they just hide it well?

Hell to the no. My friends brother attempted suicide while on that ****. I don't trust psychological drugs.
See a psychologist (no drugs). If you're still in school, you can see one for free, probably. Sometimes depression is the result of bad mental habits. ("I can't get a date. I'm worthless." --just an example). Sometimes it's the result of some past issue that needs to be addressed. Give it a shot, Kid. Or maybe you just need to hang out with friends more, get a support network going.

What are you doing this summer, btw?
Good points. The family doctor may have referrals to psychologists or licensed clinical social workers, neither of which would prescribe drugs, and both of which could help talk through some of these negative emotions.
confidence is not only highly attractive to women but to men as well. people will follow confident failures to the ends of the earth and off the cliff but one thing that they cant stand is someone who questions themselves and doubts and hesitates. uncertainty and self doubt is like skunk juice to women.
but trying to attract women is not a goal for me. being attracted to beauty and life around me is the goal.
as i appreciate and enjoy small things around me, cats and plants, i am more receptive to beauty. nothing greater to take away my confidence in the universe than to think i am not getting what i deserve. when i learned to do this the women lined up to be with me (also cats).
