I hadn't used it for a day or two before this started happening. It's not actually overheating so I have no idea what's wrong with it.

Basically, if you're not aware, we humans have this organ called the 'heart'. Now, this organ is mostly responsible for pumping blood to our other organs, but somewhere in the past, people believed it was the central point of the emotion called 'love'. Modern science can probably conclude that this emotion isn't actually centered in the heart, but rather the mind. Either way, this emotion is extremely powerful. It seems growing up in this culture, being exposed to the intrigues and fascinations of this emotion are completely unavoidable. I quickly grew up with a fascination of being in love with some kind of princess figure, saving her from some terrible evil (thanks Zelda), and so on and so forth. Now enter reality. Around Grade 3, I found a heart necklace somewhere at recess once that I thought would make a swell gift whenever I got a girlfriend. You know, that shit would have been adorable for a kid... but things get a little more complicated when you factor in the fact that I still have this necklace (and how that would probably be taken as creepy in this glorious age). I've never had a girlfriend. And it's not like I'm some smelly, fat, not-giving-a-fuck nerd. I've always been athletic, playing hockey and soccer my entire life. I even used to talk to girls back in the day. But things have just spiraled downhill. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm not the personality to go out and be all macho, thinking with my dick, hunting girls like prey. I don't view ladies as an object I'm pursuing, but rather, you know, an actual living, breathing human being. There's one girl in particular that I fancy, but shit's complicated. She has a boyfriend, or had, or broke up with him and got back together, or I don't even know.

One night, she was drunk at a party, and was giving me these looks. Then she went outside for a smoke, and asked if I wanted to come out (like very specifically to me, and not a general "who wants to smoke"). So basically, once we're outside with another one of our friends, she drops this bombshell about how she's not happy with the way her boyfriend has treated her, etc. etc., and mentions how she wants to break up with him and how she's looking forward to being with other guys (especially because they didn't have sex in over 2 months). So then later, her boyfriend arrives and shit goes down. I didn't witness anything, except the aftermath where she was just puking or something in a bedroom. I just felt super awkward the whole time because she's the nicest girl I've ever met (seriously, the first time I met her, she ran all the way down the driveway of my buddies house and hugged me as I was leaving. That leaves a lasting impression, goddamn. Why aren't more people like her?). I wanted to repay that kindness she's always shown me, but everyone else was just kind of taking charge of the situation, and you had the other girls and her closer friends comforting her and whatnot. There was just nothing that I felt was appropriate to do or say. I'm just some kid in the background.

Oh, and that's not even the worst part. Thing is, this happened last fucking year (2012). My mind is just so stuck on this, and I don't feel myself moving forward or getting over it on my own. I can't deal with it anymore. I just feel pathetic and worthless. I'm losing sleep, missing work, and just generally feeling like shit. I'm prescribed anti-depressants, but they don't really do fuck all, since it's just a pill, not a magical eraser for problems the mind is caught on. I'm not sure if any of you have ever dealt with anything similar, but I could really use some advice. :-\

And you won't shake it till you have something new in your life to pour your energy into, like a new girl, or get OCD on a good hobby. Exercise would be best. Music, art, anything creative will do.
