No One To Talk To

My emotions are really frayed. I just really want to talk to someone… but none of my few friends are available… at all. I feel like they don’t want to talk to me about my emotions… like they’re sick of hearing how depressed I am. Not sure what to do. Weekly therapy just isn’t cutting it these days.

Thanks! It sure seems to be a common problem with people who are depressed. My therapist keeps talking about how "highly sensitive" people really need conversation in their lives. It's ironic: I live with my father but he doesn't "do" emotions so I really can't talk to him. He just doesn't "get" peoples' emotional states.

I’m so sorry, living with someone sounds as awful as living alone when you can’t talk to them😢..what I would give for a hug ❤️

Yeah, it's a weird dynamic. It doesn't help that my Mom (RIP) taught my Sister and me to not bring our problems to Dad. She felt like he couldn't or wouldn't deal with us. Not sure if that was really the case... she was sort of "controlling." I guess she thought she should act as "buffer," that Dad was too busy to deal with us, or that our problems would just upset or frustrate him.

I know how you feel. My husband tells me that he's tired of talking about my anxiety and to talk about something else. It's hard though because anxiety consumes my life.

Is there an In-person support group you can join in your town or city? Or is your counselor able to see you twice a week?

There are tons of people on this site that are here for you, me included. Stay strong. You've got this

Thanks! Sorry about your situation. I've found that a lot of people get frustrated with people who have emotional issues. They feel like they need to "solve" the problem and get frustrated when they can't. They just don't understand that some people just need other people to talk to, to get stuff off their chest.

I'm sure there are support groups; though, I'm a little weary of getting involved in one... sometimes I have problems interacting with strangers. Several friends have said I have "odd" facial and verbal responses that are off-putting.

I might try seeing my therapist more often.
