Now, being a social retard and all.
If i sent her a friend request on facebook and started a conversation telling her that i remember her from back then be creepy if she asks how i find her on facebook? Or have i lost all grips on reality? I have been subjected to so much rejection in social circles ever since i was a kid so yeah.

everyone likes attention. just say "hey it was great bumping into, lets catch up some time"
nothing you do on facebook really matters. you can just block her if shes a bitch

You're not fit to be a partner. It's like a male equivalent of don't stick it in crazy, dating someone with depression is a wild and extremely miserable ride.
Fix yourself first and then dream of romances.

yep, if youre chronically depressed than chances are you're overthinking EVERYTHING. try not to think so much.
you have some negative feedback loops going on when you overanalyze. take a step back and just do what feels natural, even if your brain is screaming out. your brain is wrong, or you wouldnt be depressed

Well, i think i will try it irl next time i see her then. I can always just walk away.

Heads in the right place. Instead go to the store and tell her that you remember her. hopefully she wont be too busy. then add her after, id say this reduces the creep effect

Sheesh. Next time you see her, ask "I think I remember you from 5th grade in school. I rarely forget faces for some reason. What's your name?"
