Do you ever just feel alone? Just so alone. And cold. Like no one cares. And when you do reach out people think it’s pity you want. I don’t want pity.

I just want this feeling to go away.

And when you’re going through a rough time; people show up; either to judge, be nosy and tell you it’ll all be okay but when all is said and done; you still end up alone.

I’m trying so hard. And I’ll keep trying but I can’t shake the loneliness. And this nagging thought I’m meant to be alone and I have absolutely no one in this world and that I’m disposable. Why am I not good enough for people? Why am I always left behind? Always left out? Why am I the one laughed at and scorned at?

I’m just so lost and alone. And I don’t know what to do anymore. I just want it to all go away.

You just described how I’ve been feeling for the past 3 months, it feels awful to just be like a carpet people stand up on, nobody not reaching out to just ask how you’re doing or to have coffee or something that shows that they care and it’s just so exhausting to be trying and being always the glue that keeps friendships alive... This is me 100%. I’m still trying to figure out how to feel great again but I’m here if you need me, you’re not alone in this.

It’s always so nice to know I’m not alone in feeling this way. And I’m sorry anyone else does feel this way. It’s they worst.

Thank you. And I’m here for you too xo

Hi I think the key to this is being a lot more careful who you talk to. Also don't forget that people often don't know what to say other than to try to reassure you. With a good friend what is wrong in saying what you need?

A good friend of mine got cancer and I asked her how she wanted to be treated ie avoid the subject, or treat her like normal. She said no and yes respectively. This cleared the air and we continued to be comfortable with each other. x

I’m feeling the same way. I don’t know how we get to this point. Life moves along like it does... and then one day everything just gets to be too much. I can’t shake the feeling that things will never get better yet I keep fighting it. I think we can keep pushing through and hopefully there is peace and hope on the other side of this difficult time we are going through. I wish you all the best.
