Please add me, BTW I feel completely hopeless about my future.

Count me in also. Feel tortured most of the day, maybe for the last couple years or so. Serious depression kicked in last summer and I went in for 8 weeks of group therapy which helped a lot. And now seeing a therapist on an ongoing basis (first time for me) is also helping. Once in a while I'll have an hour or two of normalcy where I feel good and have some energy. I can muddle through a week at a time, but as far as long term hope I feel like some big change in life circumstances is needed.

Seeing your profile - I'm interested in foreign languages and foreign movies too!

I guess you can sign me up, though I am currently endeavouring to get myself out of this hellhole.

I've been uprooted from my environment during my early childhood several times, during that time one of my parents, to whom at that time I felt deeply attached to, died - 2 years after they violently broke up. Was the only colored kid in a rural primary school (on top of being a total weirdo), never had people I could sincerely call friends, still can't get over my first crush who instantly turned me down even though it's been 7 years, dropped out of university when I finally encountered an environment _willing_ to not shut me out but found I don't know how to handle that kind of attention.
Current status: Waiting on official diagnosis, trying to get a job.
