Things have been bland for me lately. At my current age and location I'm unable to work, get a license, or attempt to get my GED. For the next six months I'll be sitting all day every day in my home as I've done for the last five years. Even when I'm of legal age, I'll have no means of getting a ride to a job, and my parents say they don't want me working. This means no saving up for anything; even college.

Besides that, there's also the problem of not having anything to do during the day. Every day it's eat, sleep, study or play games. I feel so sheltered and frustrated sometimes, but what can I do? I don't have friends to see, and going places takes money that we don't have. Times like this make me wish I was in public school, just to have somewhere to go, but then I remember I have no confidence.

What else is left to do when all I can do is lose count of the weeks I haven't been outside? (link)
Your parents sound like they are being very unfair to you. They are raising you to depend on them instead of raising you to be an independent frog. They are putting their need to control you above your need to be independent. That is wrong on so many levels. You cannot allow them to treat you this way.

The good news is, there is a lot you can do.

To start with, you can get a job when you are of legal age and you can bus to that job. Alternatively, you can get a job near where you live so that you can walk. Do not let your parents get in your way of becoming a productive member of society.

Second, GO OUTSIDE. Mingle. Meet people. Join a club or extracurricular activity. Check the internet for ideas near where you live.

Third, if the above two steps fail/if you feel unsafe, call child protective services. Your parents are being abusive if they literally won't let you outside.

Fourth, if the above three steps do not work, try eating chocolate while swimming in a warm bubble bath! That always helps Moi!

I dont see the other side of the world anymore. I only see the negative or bad side. I can see all the lies people told me its like seeing through them but you only see the negative. And the environment around me I feel like it was all a lie.
I dont know the truth anymore. I feel like that this world deserves to end with its society and all the lies.
What am i gonna do? (link)
The bad side of life is certainly real. The world can be a terrible place. And it is full of lies. Take mirrors for instance. Due to defection, refaction, conflection and infliction, mirrors always make you look larger in the wrong places. (An important scientist at a big university in a famous place discovered this.) And cameras lie too, because of all kinds of strange optical things and complicated gizmos that break and give you the wrong shortstop or spoil the focus-pocus, and little hairs that get stuck inside and goo on the film.

That being said, sometimes life is pretty wonderful! Just like no one can deny that life can be awful, it is important to recognize that there are good parts to life as well. Depression tries to hide that good side, but I promise you, it is there.

Try teating some chocolate to temporarily boost your mood. That always works for moi. Just remember: never eat more than you can lift.

I am from india.
i am 22 , never had a girlfriend . i dont know why.
its not like i am ugly but still . never had sex . next year i finish my college , got a campus placement in a good European company.
but it all feels so sick . i like a girl in college shes cute but i dont feel like disturbing her.
i love my parents but you know i cant talk to them about certain things and these things are killing me from inside.i am depressed , dont know what to do...

i want it to be over soon. (link)
Do not kill yourself just because you havn't had sex! Women do NOT have to sleep with you. You should not expect them to.Nobody owes it to you to make you happy, you have to do that for yourself.

Start by taking a bubble bath. Learn to enjoy your own company.

I'm not delusional, and if you don't believe me, leave now. I will only ignore your answer if you don't believe what I'm saying, don't waste your time and typing. For example, someone I just met and only interacted with once and never spoke to again. I suddenly had a hunch on her relationship with a girl and found out every last detail was correct. At school a woman was talking about her spinal cord injury, and said she cracked her neck, and a back bone got broken or whatever. Then my neck and spine inexplicably started hurting. Happens for everything. Is this weird? Mom says I'm an empath or something like that… (link)
This is very strange. I hereby issue a writ of hocus-pocus.

From moi to you,

Miss Piggy
