Feeling lonely

Hi beautiful people. I just thought I’d reach out because I’m feeling alone. No matter who is around me and no matter how much I remind myself of how many I have who love me, I just feel like I’m on my own and life seems too much.

I feel the same way. I know some of my friends want to see me but my social anxiety has gotten to all time I. So I always feel lonely :(

I hear ya. ((((((((((Hug))))))))

Hello, I absolutely relate. I'm living with some family now and I still feel as alone as I did when I had my own apartment, a lot of times people are bickering with each other and it seems like I'm miserable no matter what the situation. It's very frustrating .

Life is frustrating over here too. Thanks 😊 for responding. Does this sight have you feeling less alone? Sometimes it does for me.

in reply to Starrlight

Sometimes it does help me feel less alone, but I see so many posts of people in despair that it gets to me!!! I think I'm a very empathic person and I try to write helpful and encouraging things to people, but I get overwhelmed by seeing so much sadness and fear and many times I don't know what I can say to be helpful. I feel like I just repeat myself sometimes.

Same here. Sometimes all I have in me is to send people a heart to show I care and am listening. Empathetic people are awesome but I know it’s rough at the same time. We have to take care of ourselves first really listening to what we need. Sometimes I can’t hear myself when the world seems so noisy then I know I need to go out into nature or something if I have no energy to go out I meditate.

in reply to Starrlight

Exactly!!!! I feel like I'm so moody and other people can really trigger me. I'm very irritated with my mom right now, she is on the phone constantly and I know she has a right to talk to who she wants to but I can hear everything and I feel like I want to snap at her. I know I have no reason to do that but the feelings are there. Sometimes I like it quiet and other times I like to hear music, but hearing people constantly talking and hearing a blaring television set going on, I don't understand why it bugs me so much but it does.

Starr I understand! Btw one can have a million people around them and still feel alone. It's the truth. Just know it's a feeling and it's ok. It's normal to feel like that. It's an emotion. We are emotional beings and that's what we do....human beings...."to be" is to feel emotions.

Love yourself. Value yourself. Forgive yourself. Be yourself. Just be.

Much love,

Sunni☀️❤

Probably childhood but it doesnt matter. We are social beings who want to be loved and be social. It's depression.

I always feel alone too, I’m rarely alone.

I’m sorry

I know your pain.

((((((((((Gigantic hug))))))))))) I’m sorry you feel the same but I really appreciate you and after reading your post I feel less alone. I think my loneliness stems from feeling there’s something wrong with me and that others don’t like me so I feel alienated.
