There is a problem with me but I don't know what it is and it has been driving me crazy for the past couple of years. I just don't have anyone else to bounce these ideas off to.
When I was still a kid I never had any inclination that I had any mental issues other than depression. I went to therapy for about 10 years and among the 3 different people I had seen, they could only spot my depression.
However, in recent years, friends and aquaintances I once had would tell me that I was either lazy, narcissistic, laconic, or pretentious. Some family members still do. I try to think back to those moments and what I might have done to make people think that about me so I can try to improve and get on with my life. I've always kept socializing and small talk to a minimum and would only speak when spoken to and given the most honest response to those who would so I don't see how I ever did any wrong. I'm still in my early twenties but I've only had this one part time job. I have reached a point in my job where I minimize my effort on the job and get extremely exhausted everyday. I always make as much time for myself as I can to get anything done and always meet the demands.
However, at home I just sleep, play vidya or browse some boards. I only get out of the house to work or spend a day with my girlfriend.
It's a lackluster existence, but it is all I feel I am capable of at the moment until I get a proper education and amount of money. What is really the pressing question is, am I narcissistic or lazy for only doing what I can and always being honest with myself and others? And what is wrong with "doing little or nothing" if I am not hurting anyone and I never asked to be here? Why is society so fascistic and eager to force others to do things or act a certain way? There's no where else on the net that I have found a similar dilemma so it's all just a mystery to me.
tldr: therapists say I'm only depressed but literally everyone else says I'm a narcissistic lazy prick. Any other anons have this issue with people?

I don't my family does that to me all the time, but I'm not really selfish or lazy.
I got to work, I keep my place clean, and I go to school.
Not everybody is a social butterfly, and needs to constantly be around people.
