I'm 21, It's new years and i'm home alone for the first year ever - sitting in my room on the computer, drinking bacardi and coke and feeling so miserable. It's this time of year that I realise I actually have pushed everyone away from me - if anyone asks, i'm out with my whole lot of non-exsisting friends getting pissed and enjoying myself. But no... I'm in my room, on my computer, drinking, realising I have noone left.....
What can I do tonight to cheer myself up? I feel so lonley :(

At least you have realised that your so called friends are scumbags. its not nice been made an idiot of.

Could be the Bacardi and Coke talking, of course.
If you really have pushed everyone away, you need to look at why.. sounds as if you have started already. You are already on the road to rectifying the position. Think about it some more and write down three realistic things you are going to do to make new friends or pull existing ones back into your life. Then telephone any family members to wish them happy new year - or if you life with any of them go and be with them.
You sound depressed - I think we push people away because we assume they won't want to be with us because we are lacking in some way. Perhaps one of your three things on the list could be to visit your doctor and investigate this.
Have a happy 2008, happier than 2007 sounds as if it was.

I sense the opportunity for a New Years Resolution.
I'm not going to bombard you with quotes and sayings like ''tomorrows another day'', or ''look on the bright side''.
But hey, It's not the end of the world is it?

Aw that is harsh. But it is only 19:12 in the uk, this is the uk section in Y!A innit' ? What about your family ? What they are doing ? Send your mum or dad a little text or your siblings .... And get to a night club or a pub ! :) ! Trust me, there are plenty of people who are in your position and would love to talk to you. So, get out there babe =] !
Best of Luck !

I'm sorry you feel this way, But why are you pushing away your friends and family? There must be an obvious reason to you why. I think the best thing for you to do is, if you're already drinking.... head out to a local bar and PARTY! Whocares if you don't know anyone... make yourself appear happy, friendly, open and approachable. Before you know it you'll be feeling that way for real.... with the music, all the people, and the excitement for the New Year, it'll be a blast!!! You might meet a girl/guy and hit it off!! DO NOT sit dismal, alone, and sorrowful of your pushing your friends away. F*ck that! U don't want that for yourself, do you? Start over, now's the time. Life's too short, to be living in despair. Realize that. I wish you a Happy New Year 2008!!! Go Lively up yourself!!! Good Luck--- YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

If it's any consolation, I'm alone for New Year's, and it's typical for me ;) I agree with the other postees that have suggested to use this as an opportunity to improve your life and yourself for the coming year. Your awareness that you have pushed others away is priceless, and that is a start to changing your situation and behavior. Please put that drink down! :) It's only going to add to the depression as I have depression myself (and take the ssri/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, prozac and have for years as well as receiving counseling). I plan on watching a dvd tonight as well as catching up on some reading as 'knowledge is power' :)
If you do feel like you have a drinking problem, there is a 12 step support group, AA (alcoholics anonymous): http://www.aa.org Please take good care :)

Stop drinking and instead of trying to lose yourself in intoxication, look deeply at your character and decide what you're going to do to change. Make a list of small steps you can take and then do a bit of excercise and watch a funny movie, which will make you laugh and forget you're miserable. I'm serious about the exercises. It should make you feel better, more energised, less miserable. Probably best not to call anyone just in case they are having fun! Call them later and start being nice to them and stop pushing them away :S
