I& #39;ve come to the conclusion that approaching people is a waste of time and energy. Words have never been my strong suit, I never seem to say the right thing. Even when I do, the recipients are always the wrong people.

I used to revel in solitude, but now it& #39;s causing me to panic a lot and it& #39;s making me break down more times than I& #39;d like to admit. I don& #39;t know how to deal with my emotions, and I& #39;ve never been someone who knows how vocalize his thoughts and feelings.

I was convinced that either loneliness has made me self-centered or the other way around, but now I realize it& #39;s far more complex than that. I just never know when to be assertive and when to be meek.

I have been depressed for a long time now, and the worst part is that I don& #39;t know whether I& #39;m depressed because I& #39;m alone or I& #39;m alone because I& #39;m depressed.
