Do you?

[Anna_and_Ollie]

Does anyone ever feel alone even when they are with people who love them?

[Hidden]

Do you genuinely love the people love you and do you think they love you in a healthy way?!

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to Hidden]

I honestly don’t even know I’m not thinking straight right now

[Hidden in reply to Anna_and_Ollie]

I am asking because it could help you to sort it out the root of your loneliness. Some time we absorb negative energy from the environment, the people we are in and/or with. Even love can be expressed in toxic way.

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to Hidden]

I feel like I’m toxic because I’m so emotional

It’s hard for me to express how I’m feeling a lot of the time because I’ve been shunned for it my whole life

[Hidden in reply to Anna_and_Ollie]

I find some time writing down my thoughts helps me process my emotion when I don’t feel to have the company of anyone.

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to Hidden]

I like that. I want to try that

[Hidden in reply to Anna_and_Ollie]

Yes and whatever bothers me, whatever I wanna let my real thought n true emotion out, I write them all out and burn them as a ritual I told myself this is done and solved. I don’t need to bottle up and create toxics inside me.

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to Hidden]

I think I need to try this to really understand how it works.

I’ve journaled before but I’ve never burned it

[Hidden in reply to Anna_and_Ollie]

Be safely burn them as u tell yourself i let go the toxics I let go the pain I let go everything doesn’t serve me. I don’t need to keep toxic memories, I dissolve them into ashes as I am a brand new person creating new memories. I hope it help you as It helped me and be safe!

100%. And they know everything about my struggles. But I don't "feel" the attention and love. It's nice they are there and around but sometimes I just ...forget? they care. I hate having the same conversations over and over so I don't bring up why I'm down. Just bury it. So I feel more alone and distant.

Any of this making sense?

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to imnotthere]

This makes a lot of sense to me

It’s actually exactly how I feel.

[Anna_and_Ollie]

I feel like I can’t be honest with anyone in person

[Anna_and_Ollie]

But it’s not ok. I trust people and I genuinely believe that they care about me and I open up.

Then I always feel betrayed

[Anna_and_Ollie]

I know and that is unfortunately the sad reality of life. I don’t think I’m ever going to find someone like that.

I felt that way all my life until a few months ago when I started MTHR, which is methylfolate. I always thought is was depression from my terrible childhood that injured me emotionally, and assumed it was permanent, since medications never worked for my depression. I had a DNA test done and It Turns out I metabolize folic acid too quickly. Now I take a supplement called l-mthr and it has changed my life. Maybe it’s something you can look into if you have already tried other ways to help.

[Anna_and_Ollie in reply to 1Penny]

I’m going to look into this for sure, thanks for the information 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[1Penny in reply to Anna_and_Ollie]

You're welcome!

All the time. It sucks. Sorry that you feel this

Hi A+O !!

My best friend asked me to meet him at a Greek restaurant, I drove there, sat across from him and he literally just started at his phone for 5 minutes without ever even looking up and never said a word..

Was I invisible?

So I turned away and stared at mine too.

Boy that was fun.
