I just feel lost, hurt, alone ...

[Billy-124]

I just feel lost, hurt, alone I feel like good for nothing like nobody wants me . I feel like if I wasent here people would be happy

[Sosa2017]

I’m sorry you feel this way Billy-124. But please don’t feel alone! This world is a crazy place but it’s all about what you make of it. Did something trigger these feelings? How long have you felt this way?

[Billy-124 in reply to Sosa2017]

I felt like this since yesterday I have no friends , no family no one cares about or is ever there for me . Everyone is too busy for me . Just was thinking I’m gonna be alone on Thanksgiving

[Sosa2017 in reply to Billy-124]

Can I ask how old you are or what age group you belong in? Also is there something preventing you from making friends like your work/school schedule or shyness? I’m not trying to be nosy I’m just trying to piece some things together

[Billy-124 in reply to Sosa2017]

25 , I have anxiety always think that they won’t wanna hang out with me or they won’t like me . I gave my number to a old friend and she didn’t ever text me .

[Billy-124 in reply to Billy-124]

I want to meet a guy I don’t want to be alone forever but I always think that nobody wants me makes me think I’m not good enough

[Sosa2017 in reply to Billy-124]

Well try not to be hung up on the old friend that didn’t answer. It’s probably not personal, I for one am so busy I have a hard time keeping up with people that I see regularly ya know? But I understand how you feel!

I’m also 25 and have some pretty extreme anxiety and sometimes paranoia. Try joining a group of some kind where people will have similar interests so you can meet more people. What type of hobbies or interests do you have by the way?

As for meeting a significant other, you have to put yourself out there a little. But if you join some kind of club or group or something and get more comfortable around people like you then that will get easier too.

Don’t feel alone, you can message me any time

[Sosa2017 in reply to Billy-124]

And you are more than good enough, you sound like a really good person and I’m sure you have a personality, beliefs, and interests. It’s just about bumping into that guy that sees that. If you weren’t around I think you would be surprised by the sadness of those around you

I have no friends. My one friend died Thursday from brain cancer. My family don't visit or contact me. They had to rally round my husband when in was rushed into hospital with meningococcal septisemia. They wanted to put him in a home (his worst dread). Since I came home about four weeks ago no one has contacted me to find out how in an. It is a very lonely place to be and I am now researching getting either phone pals or pen friends. I am 66 so no chance of making friends when you have social anxiety.

[Billy-124]

Okay thanks, I go to this group we’re moms meet new moms and children make friends . I just feel like when I try talking to them they are snobby or they don’t like me

I do put myself out there but no one sees it . I seen my best friend like last week at work she was happy to see me she said she would call me she didn’t . I understand that she’s busy but so am I everyone’s to busy for me .

It's unfortunate you feel this way, however, you can get better. I know it might be hard to believe, yet don't take things too personally. I can understand about not receiving any response from your friend or that other people are snobbish. You can feel better, there will be people who you can talk to.

[Billy-124 in reply to Hidden]

Thank you, I hope so I just feel so lost .

I often feel like my family would be better off if I weren't around. But eventually I realize that I do make a difference to them and the world around me. Meds, homeopathic (CBD) remedies and counseling have helped me with my mental illness so I can function around people with more confidence. What helped me the most was volunteering with shelter and rescue animals. I met people with the same interests and passion. Find something that you're truly passionate about and you'll find people who understand you.

I go and just hang out with the cats and it’s like therapy for me I have an awesome dog but he’s got severe separation anxiety so I can’t really leave him for long.

[Hidden in reply to chatnoirmd]

It really is like therapy to spend time with them, and truly..just showing them love is one of the most important thing you can do for them. It also gives us a sense of purpose to be able to make a difference to them.

After volunteering at shelters and rescues for ten years, I decided to start a low cost spay and neuter nonprofit. That forced me to be more social..haha

Seperation anxiety sucks, but with time and patience they can get over it. Two of mine had it, but crate training with lots of treats and toys and a doggy CBD oil helped. I just give it to them about an hour before I leave while everything is calm. One of them gets so excited that I'm leaving that she runs into her crate and waits for her peanut better kong.

I’m at a place where I’d rather be alone than around the toxic people I was around. Maya mentioned volunteering with animals, and I can suggest just visiting with them as well. Animals have a tendency to make us smile, laugh, and to forget a bit. I know it helps me just going to hang out with the cats. You can also see how the staff is and decide if you want to volunteer. I wanted to, but for me, I just enjoy my visits at the moment

I’m getting personal here, so I’ll share that I was quite active on Facebook. It gave me a feeling of having friends and a social life. I’m beginning to realize how unhealthy it is though - google it. Basically it’s easy to get addicted to checking Facebook all day, and seeing all the awesome posts from your ‘friends’ leave you feeling low, jealous, not as successful, not as good. Unless you are seeking help, like here, people aren’t going to post thier flaws or short comings. Also, you don’t really know if the person is who they say they are.

I’m going through something similar and using the meetup app and the trouble is just getting the courage to meet new people. When you meet your tribe though, it’s worth it! I’m still waiting myself, but I’m cautiously optimistic. Good luck!

You're not alone it's million of us that's having a hard time with anxiety depression and so on I'm having a hard time now with feeling very nervous, my flesh shaking, fatigue, soooo hard.

[Lostjoy]

I'm feeling that way also. I feel pretty comfortable with the people who are on this site. I just wish someone from here lived close enough to meet for coffee and chat once in awhile.
