In my group of friends there are 6 of us, and I'm the only one not being invited out. Recently I have been diagnosed with depression (due to stress and family problems), I told one of my friend whom I live with, and since then she barely talks to me, doesn't invite me out, and other little silly things like ignoring my texts. When I confronted her about it, I found that she had told the rest of the group members my 'problem' and she said that 'everyone has problems, you shouldn't bring yours into our group, you deserve whats happened to you as your an A class twat'I have done nothing wrong, especially nothing what should make her say that to me. So, past few days I have locked myself in my room and haven't spoke to anyone. I'm sad and feel like I have no friends, am I being too oversensitive? Thank you

I'm sure you'll be fine, it'll only be for a couple of days.If you wanted could try breathing exercises, meditation or yoga which you can google and see if any sound good to you. It might also help to remind yourself that they're the ones in the wrong and you shouldn't have to feel this way about going back to your own house every time you have a negative thought or feeling.You could also try a herbal remedy for relaxation if it's especially stressful for you.

Not so nice to know I haven't got any decent friends at uni though!I am considering joining a sports group of some sort, but that'll have to wait till September when the sports teams start doing trials again. I am dreading to go back next week, I'm only going back for an exam Sunday till Tuesday morning! I shouldn't dread going back in my own house surely?Hopefully I'll be fine and I'm able to avoid them, just I have a horrible gut wrenching feeling. Any advice on how to calm myself down and get rid of this horrible gut feeling?

No you're not being oversensitive. You can't help having depression, lots of people have it. It sounds like your friend is the 'A class twat'.Have you got any other friends you can call up and invite out/over at all, even old ones you haven't seen or spoken to in a bit? Your current group of friends sound like shallow, selfish people and to be honest I think in the long run you would be better off without them.If not how about joining a club/group? A sports club especially might be good for as it could help your depression and to meet new people. If you're not into sports something else maybe. It would be better to go out, keep yourself busy and make new friends than to sit in your room upset about people who aren't worth it.
