I feel so sensitive that everything gets to me
I don't feel real any more. Everything feels fake or pointless.
The thought of getting a mundane job to pass the time feels insulting, but I need to get out the house and have some kind of life.
I am so extreme in my views that I feel that the slightest disregard of human rights is evil.
I find a LOT of people who hurt others to be evil, so I find the political system filled with evil people.
The news gets right inside me, I find the way people talk sometimes to be too much stimulation, I find too many loud noises that I don't relate to or find interesting difficult to tolerate, the fact that bad exists in the world hurts me so much.
The idea of doing mundane stuff bores and depresses me, unless I can actually feel almost magical by doing it... like putting on a show.
I feel depressed and awfully miserable.
I feel like my life lost its purpose ever since my girlfriend left. I wanted to live with her in a better area - such as Denver, where she lives... that is a nice city.
I fought tooth and nail, disregarding my sore need for emotional and mental health, to get back with her and this fight went on for the best part of five months, and now she doesn't even talk to me.
Where I live is dull and boring, not at all suitable for an artist.
I am not progressing with music and I feel awfully depressed.
My mind hurts me - I feel like I am doing evil things, and my strong need to cry out in pain does not get any kind of fixes - no one changes my life, and I feel unable to... I also feel heartbroken and everything feels dull.
The fact that most people just take in and filter out bad stuff, and the very stuff they take just damages me, is stressful; for instance - war, and politicians messing around with poor people.
I can't cope with inhumane things and I find it horrible that the world still hasn't learned to develop a Utopia.
I need to get out of the house but I do not want to have a 9 to 5 job, because it is not ME. Jobs don't give me the feeling of artistic expression and I don't know if I could hold onto one anyway.
I have no social life off the internet except for occasional meet ups in an Asperger social group, and I am very depressed. Nothing feels real.

Samtoo, you are very young. there is a lot of good living out there, if you try to meet it halfway. Don't let the negative "self talk" take over. I struggle with depression myself, and over the years, I have realized that ultimately, I am the only one who can change things if I don't like them. People will let you down, in life. People stop liking you, or move away, or get on with different lives than yours. You must just get on with a life that pleases you. Find something to love, and pursue it. It doesn't have to be a person. As you heal from your lost relationship, you will be better able to enter into another one.
