Bored & lonely.

[brigitterose7]

I’m not sure if anyone my age is on here but I thought I could at least give it a try. I’m 24 years old and I’m really lonely, I don’t really have many people to talk to. I recently lost my best friend and boyfriend but they were toxic people so I’m better off without them but I find myself not knowing what to do with myself throughout the days. I lack motivation and inspiration for really anything which also makes me sad & depressed. All I do is lay around, be on my phone or occasionally go to the park but that’s about it. I feel my life is pointless at this point, I’m not suicidal but I’m just so sick and tired of this feeling of loneliness.

Hey there! I totally get that feeling. I feel like that a lot, even though I have my boyfriend constantly on my rear telling me that it'll be okay. Also by the way, I'm 16 (I know I'm not quite your age, but I'm also pretty young). I totally get that that feeling is difficult to deal with. I've been struggling with anxiety, depression, and thoughts of suicide for quite a few years now. But the feeling of knowing that someone out in the world somewhere actually cares enough to take the time to offer positive words of wisdom makes me want to live. I'm not kidding! I really hope that we can do that for you too. There are so many people who care about you, and I promise that will never change.

If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask. And feel free to message me whenever you'd like. I'm always down to talk about anything; no judgement. I hope all is well. I am sending love and support your way. <3

Hi. Yeah I’d say that feeling is quite prevalent these days...but hey welcome! There’s a lot of nice folks here willing to offer support. You’re not alone. I hope you find the support you need. I’m always open to chat 😊

I know the feeling. I’m the same way. I am in the house all the time being lazy. It makes me feel awful but it’s my safe place at the same time so I feel comfortable but I know it can’t be doing me any good..

You still have a great life ahead of you, you are young. You will have the opportunity to meet many other people who will care and love you. This can be a time to surround yourself more with family and doing activities with them. Things will always get better <3

This seems sooo relatable.... I too lost my best friend n boyfriend both...2 months ago. N m 23. I can understand what you are feeling. It's difficult to deal with...like u had some dreams n now they mean nothing. But this is life and Nothing lasts forever. Keep good hopes and you'll get through it.

You can talk to me if you want 😊

Thank you for sharing with us all. Truly appreciate you being open and seeking support. As many have said already we are here for you. You have a full life to live, depression and anxiety can’t that away. In your generation, more and more, is being asked of you. It often can be too much! I get that! Like no matter how much I do it is never enough. Anyway, you have so much to look forward to and when darkness hits remember the future IS still ahead of you-new found friendships, a boyfriend (husband), children etc.

I am also 24. Let who is gone be gone to hell. And focus on yourself for the time being. Think about this, what do you think will make your life interesting, painting or dancing or gardening or just being silent and observing. Dig deep into yourself for your answers and take time to build an interesting life for you. Yes, you should have a support group and you should nurture that but you should not feel lonely if they are not there. Be your best friend and cherish time with yourself. Tel me, if I can help more.

Age does not matter as many here are many different ages but also many suffer similar experiences despite age. Sounds like you are grieving the past relationships but time to find others who deserve your wonderful personality. Their loss and someone out there's gain. When you are ready, you will find just the right person too complete your growth. We have so many folks along to way to sculpt our world view as it should be. A narrow world view can be impairing. I learned that the hard way and wish I had been taught this early on, but I was too young to know how to ask. Take good care and enjoy your future relationships awaiting you where you least expect them. Keep an eye out for them but not so much that you lose the beauty of nature, also friends in our growth and survival.
