How do I control my anxiety and borderline depression?

I’m nearly and left school as a senior just over a year ago and having been working sinse I left - I’m going to college in September. But when I was at school I didn’t have alot of friends, I was friendly with lots of people but they weren’t friends or anyone I could ask anything of.

But my brothers a year younger than me and was always more popular and I’ve always been jealous of him for that. He’s finished school now as well and he goes out with friends every weekend and I’m left at home. I don’t text anyone I just feel like I have no friends and have no qualities that people want to have me as a friend.

I know that alot of other people will have it alot worse but I don’t want to be alone anymore.

It’s normal. You just are not the type who’s ‘out there’. It’s okay.

College is a whole new ball game. People tend to be a bit more mature than in high school so the whole popularity thing is a waste of time, in a way….

Just keep in mind that people like vulnerability. Don’t be afraid to share your thoughts and feelings with them. It’s a two way street. If you open up to them, they will open up to you. People do care and people do want to help. You just gotta be willing to accept the help.
