Being alone

[brokenankle75]

With the pandemic and people are confined to homes and being restless and depression cuz of it is what I go through every day. I’m so tired of being alone. I know it’s better to be alone than be in a bad relationship because I’ve been there. It doesn’t help my mental health at all. I don’t have a support system. I have a counselor and psychiatrist but I take meds and the other stuff doesn’t really seem to do anything for me. I was dating this guy and all he wanted was sex. I’ve stopped answering him but it’s hard because I’m alone but it goes back to saying I’m better off alone than being in a bad relationship. I don’t know why I contemplate in my mind about calling him but I do. I’m so lonely. And when I say I don’t have a support system it’s almost completely None.

Sorry you're feeling so lonely - I am also. Is there anyway you can build a support system? meet new supportive friends, go to an online depression support group meeting?

No support system around here. I’ve lived here almost 2 years n the only people I know are in my apartment complex and it’s mostly elderly people and they talk about you behind your back spread lies. Do you do an online support group meeting

How have you been. I haven’t been on here. I’ve been waiting my time on dating websites and it’s just a bunch of bs

Feeling the same way. I was hoping to connect on here with a few people on a regular basis but that hasn't happened either.
