People say hey put yourself out there what a fucking mistake
    #25914403 -

I basically put myself out there for it only to blow up in my face. It seems no matter how I play things the end result is the same.

I told someone who I believed was my friend about my struggles with depression, in addition to some other deeply personal things. Their response has mostly been to turn their back on me.

That sucks your friend isn't being more supportive and understanding.
But you can't conclude that putting yourself out there is a mistake just because ONE PERSON didn't react the way you wanted.
You need to move on and find a new friend that actually cares about your well being.

This. True friends care no matter what. True friends are also hard to come by.

This nothing but a lesson to choose more wisely next time.

One gets better at it with age, I find.

Have you considered that this friend didn't know how to respond or what to say? Don't write them off just yet.

I know what you are talking about,  I shared some personal information with my neighbor of 20yrs, after confiding in him he all the sudden turned against me and started causing me trouble.

It started in early 2006, oxycontin was all in the news about its responsibility in over dose deaths, crime and addiction, I had been taking it for several years but decided to stop and try to live without it.

After a nasty 45 days of hell I was released from the hospital, my neighbor of course noticed that I had been gone for a long time and asked me what was up. I told him the truth and I knew instantly that I had made a mistake.

This guy was so freaked out that I had been taking that drug that his whole demeanor changed immediately,  like someone had just rubbed shit on my face and he just saw it. From that day on he and his wife have treated me like I have the plague.  These people have the nerve to call the cops on me for everything, for example,  I had my gallbladder removed one week and the 2nd week I had to have my knee reconstructed due to injuries,  these bastards called the code enforcement cops on me because I didn't cut the grass for 2wks and everything else they can think of to harass me.

I learned a valuable lesson from that experience, and it helped me to understand that I didn't really have friends that I could trust with intimate secrets and to be careful with whom I share things that can be damaging or possibly detrimental, you never know when someone will try to use the things you've said/done against you.

Most of the friends I’ve made over the years as they gotten married, had kids, etc they’ve all pretty much abandoned me. I don’t really have anyone that I can reach out to and tel them what I’m going through.

I can relate with you on that too, but guess what? They weren't your friends,  they were acquaintances. Friends are there no matter what and you will most likely be able to count them on one hand because they are extremely rare.
Hang in there, vent here if you need to, I wish you the best, if there's anything I can do to help please ask.

Sounds like they were heartless or didn’t know what to say. How long have you known this person?

I agree with everyone saying they weren't your friend to begin with, the way I see situations like this as them doing you a favor now you don't have to waste your time and energy on someone who really isn't your friend so it's a positive in my book. Hopefully soon you will find a real friend.

I rarely put myself out there and don’t have very many friends to begin with. So it’s not like I have this huge reserves of friends I can reach out to when things are difficult for me. On the surface at work I come off as very social, funny, etc but unfortunately I can never turn a surface relationship into a genuine friendship.

True friendship is like a garden, it is cultivated and nurtured, you have to continually pull out the weeds and pests. Hang in there my friend, it will get better.

IME, this can be a lot more difficult dependent on ones location in the world. I've worked all over, and there are certain cultures where it is just extremely difficult - where people tend to be suspicious and so untrustworthy and so will screw you over.

Just a 2c on the matter worth considering IMO; the problem may not be yours but one of your surroundings...

You know what’s crazy I went years working keeping to myself never pursuing any type or romantic and cultivated a small group of close friends. About 6, 7 years ago I met my ex at work and she nearly fucking destroyed my life. So I made promise to myself never to go down that road of really opening myself up to people from work.
