No Friends..

I'm going to be twenty at the end of February, and it's safe to say that I don't have a single friend outside of my family and boyfriend. I'm okay with that for the most part, because in the past two years I have lost everyone that was ever close to me. So I kinda decided I didn't want anything to do with people anymore. But, sometimes it'd be nice to have a girlfriend to talk to and go do stuff with, instead of being stuck inside my cramped apartment all the time.

I have depression and some big anxiety issues, but everyday I try very hard to work through them. I keep distance away from people because a lot of people my age can't really understand what depression and anxiety is like. A lot of the time I just feel extremely lonely and upset. Especially when I see people I used to hang out with still talk to others that I used to hang out with. It all just really hurts.
