Answer 1

Why do you think you need to go out with the crowd or find a boyfriend? Why don't you take the time alone to think about what you truly desire to do in life. My five years overseas in the Marine corps were some of the most contemplative times I think I will ever have due to all the things I saw and the down time to reflect on them.
When it comes to doing things, force yourself to try something new every once in awhile, you'll find that some things you like and some things you don't, but you'll find yourself in the process.
As far as a significant other, they come when you're ready. If you get your mental act in order and become sure of what you like and who you are, you'll be ready in yourself to venture out and find someone,.....if you want.
Civilians rarely see the real dark side of the military, down time and it's psychological effects on people. Try to keep yourself engaged and you'll be fine. Sometimes you need to just feel bad about life, because sometimes life is miserable. But in the end it can't rain all the time!

Answer 2

I think you are normal, just concentrate on the Army and your job. You won't be out of the country forever, try to learn new things, keep a journal of daily activities, your only 21, very young to be away from home and all. Make friends but not too close. Look forward to coming home and think of what you want in your future. Learn as much as you can. Your on the computer and Internet, that helps pass time. Try a daily exercise program (sit-ups/push-ups), do a little each day and the next day do a few more until you are at your max. Give 100% to your job so everyone knows your the BEST at what you do. Help others that are depressed, you can do this I know you can. Try to feel positive on whatever happens in your life. Look for the good things-not the bad. Keep surfing when you have time and read the newspapers from cities around the USA, learn what is happening elsewhere. Soon you will be going home before you know it. GOOD LUCK!

Answer 3

I wouldnt call it depression unless you're having crazy thoughts. You could just be a homebody. I'm in college, and clubbing, going out, being all up in everyone's mix doesn't really interest me. I'd rather spend my time being lowkey or spending it with my boyfriend or a couple of friends.

However, one time I did get to the point where I just decided I didn't really want a boyfriend and I wanted to focus on making me a better person. Thats when I avoided boys and dating.

It's just a personal phase, hopefully. Overtime you'll get back into the hang of things. I also can't help but think that it's the army doing it to you. If I was in the army, I'd probably be miserable too. LOL. Just kidding. Teehee.

Answer 4

You certainly don't sound too happy, and I guess that being away from home and friends isn't feeling great. People often respond to this sort of unhappiness by wanting to sleep (which takes them out of the situation they don't want to be in) and eating (stuffing down the feelings and filling the gap inside). It's possible that if life wasn't feeling so horrid, you would regain your interest in going out and socialising (whether boyfriends or not).

Are there any ways in which you can help yourself feel better? For example, e-mailing friends from home, writing a journal, listening to music? How long till you get home? The sort of strategies you use to help yourself feel half-way OK will vary depending on how long you're going to have to manage for. If it's a really long time, it might be worth talking to the medical officer - medication could be helpful to get you through till you get home. Of course, if it's a longer term feeling of depression, you probably need to try psychotherapy.

Answer 5

No hurry to jump into a relationship, you have your whole life ahead of you, and i'm sure being away from home is very sad and sometimes depressing. Maybe when you do come home the right man will magicaly show up, thats usually how it happens when you dont expect it.

Answer 7

You've answered yourself:

You are away from home.

Stress from being in another country/army, "being stuck", etc. which you have not found ways to cope with results in your body & mind been overwhelmed. Resulting in a 'shut down of the system'.
Talk to someone
Go out and explore neat things in the area.
Exercise daily
Look for ways to improve yourself (take classes) or your surroundings.

Answer 8

You should speak to your chaplain.

Don't eat too much, why punish yourself by blowing up like a blimp?

I was in the Navy for four years and saw a lot of similar behaviour amongst the guys. The military can cause depression, it is not a normal lifestyle.

Answer 9

Your ok. Your normal. You decided to feel what you want to do. A lot of people don'e like going out or getting boyfriends. They do it when their good and ready. I hope you come home safe really soon.

Answer 10

Maybe you like to be on your own .
