[Leary]

I'm Leary, 21 years old, turning 22 in September. I came across this board through google and I'm just looking for some support I guess. I've been very depressed and introverted for quite a few years now and at 21 feel like I've yet to actually live.

I'll save the rest for a real topic I guess, but I have no friends, no job, no money, I'm supposed to attend community college this year (three years later than most) but I'm not sure I'm going to make it and I'm just as depressed as I've ever been.

Hi 22 is not old to start college there are people in the 30 40 that start college even older what matters is you start. You will meet new people with same interest as your Kinder people unlike at highschool they are more mature and caring. i hope you are able to reaach out a bit more there okay as it does change when you go to college.

I feel really bad for not saying thanks for the welcoms. It's been a few weeks and I actually forgot about the introduction post! Thank you guys for the kind greetings.

Thanks GentleLady, I've actually been looking at different therapists online. I'm hoping that this summer I can make some necessary changes to my life including reaching out for professional help.
