You know, it may be tough right now, but we always seem to manage to get through and things get better. If we didn't have the tough times, we wouldn't appreciate the good. I just went through a divorce and now am a single mom. It was the roughest 12 months of my life, but now things are great. I feel so empowered after getting through that. Just hang in there!
About the not connecting.... I think that is so important to have really good relationships with people. If you are there for someone during a difficult time for them, you will have such a strong relationship with them and would have built trust with them. I think then you can open up, express how you are feeling without feeling vulnerable. The people that love you, won't judge you, but you have to connect with them to get to that point. I hope this makes sense.

We all put up walls in our lives...this is what you've done it's your way of protecting yourself from getting hurt...now your depressed because you've realized that wall has alienated you from others, and showing compassion to people. You can get involved in your local community and volunteer at a Foster Home or Homeless shelter, or better yet volunteer at an Old folks home (retirement home) or become a Candy striper (volunteer nurses aid) maybe a couple of times out of the month or whatever your time allows. Helping others can FILL the Void in your heart and cure your depression. When you show compassion towards others, and hear there problems, it does something almost MAGICAL to you, your worries aren't so big after all. Actually you come to realize that your problems pale in comparison.
Show love for thy neighbor, open your heart to others, you'll see how good it feels.

Hey man. Everyone gets to a point in thier life
Believe in yourself
Be brave...but it's ok to be afraid sometimes
Study hard
Give lots of kisses
Laugh often
Don't be overly concerned with your weight, it's just a number
Always try to see the glass half full
Meet new people, even if they look different to you
Remain calm, even when it seems hopeless
Take lots of naps..
Be weird whenever you have the chance
Love your friends, no matter who they are
Don't waste food
RELAX
Take an occasional risk
Try to have a little fun each day.
...it's important
Work together as a team
Share a joke with friends
Fall in love with someone..
...and say "I love you" often
Express yourself creatively
Be conscious of your appearance
Always be up for surprises
Love someone with all of your heart
Share with friends
Watch your step
It will get better
There is always someone who loves you more than you know
Exercise to keep fit
Live up to your name
Seize the Moment
Hold on to good friends; they are few and far between
Indulge in the things you truly love
Cherish every Sunday
At the end of the day... PRAY
....... and close your eyes
And smile at least once a day!

You're the type of person who has one or two close friends you can open up to and who will understand you. There's nothing wrong with that. Others may think you're unapproachable, both the few people you do let in will see how wonderful you are, and they'll be glad you're in their life. Don't open up to anyone. Make them earn it But when you do open up, do it little by little, in case you find that they can't understand you. It may take a few years to find the right people, but it will be worth it. Good luck.
