Why do you want a relationship so badly? You're 17. The dynamics of your life are just that. Very dynamic. They will be constantly changing as you finish up school, your friends finish up school. You know how many people I talk to still from when I was 17? None. And I'm only 21. Don't take the world so serious so young. Work on yourself, fight like hell against that depression. I've been there too man.

Basically, I suffer from moderate to severe depression, and, it's really taken a toll on my sanity. I rarely smile these day, at least not in public, in fact, is generally look vaguely annoyed in public. I've been told by girls that have actually been attracted to me that I'm kind of weird (that weirdness is mostly do to my depression destroying my abilities to interact in a social setting).

Holy shit you just described me perfectly right now, and I'm not proud of that obviously. Working on myself to get out of this shithole spiral called depression. I don't know if it's my diet or physical health, but I'm trying to upgrade everything right now and if you're not you should do it or at least consult a doctor.

Since this has ruined my confidence and replaced it with a hatred for mankind

Again I feel like you're describing me lol wtf man get out my head please, but anyway don't spend too much time on that anger, it gets you nowhere.
Tbh you shouldn't even worry about pick up dude, worry about getting your mental health and maybe your physical health in shape.

<3 gl man

Do you meditate? Try that. There's an audiobook called Mindfulness if you're into audiobooks.

Reflect each day. 3 positive things and 3 things you can improve.

You're not ready to approach girls or seek a relationship atm. Work on yourself first. It's frustrating, but you know you need it.

Your life is just getting started, don't count yourself out yet.

Also, at 17, most relationships kinda suck anyways. Focus on bettering yourself so that you can be well suited to a relationship in the future.

I can relate to you a lot on this, it's hard to be flirty when you feel fucked up inside. I try confronting what makes me sad but it's not super effective. Good luck man, maybe just trying taking life less seriously. Things matter less than we think and believing that is calming for me.
