I feel genuinely alone.

I don't know that this is a call for help, I doubt it is.
But I find myself feeling particularly burdened by my own affect. Depression is getting harder to shake and the people in my life have begun to mean less and less. I feel myself withdrawing into a deeper and deeper funk as my grades are slipping and my life getting messier. I don't know that I've ever felt so genuinely alone. To the point that the things I want to do are dripping out of my view as I lose my enthusiasm for them. Maybe it's my fault because up until now I've always lived with the desire to show people what I have, causing me to feed off attention. But when I feel like I have nowhere to turn to, I have nothing to feed off of but myself.

I think I'm eating myself alive.
Metaphorically, that is, but we'll see how long it takes before I begin actually devouring my own skin omfg

Same tbh... D= I've been feeling really bad lately as well so please know that you're not alone in that at least... My main comfort is that this low is probably temporary as always and I'll go back to remembering that it's fun to draw and be alive eventually.... Sorry I don't have anything more optimistic to say, I'm not really good at this kind of thing. But I do hope u feel better soon
