Looking to talk

I have been in a depressive state after an abusive relationship that lasted for a year and ended suddenly. I have been struggling to cope with the grief and loneliness

What is it that you miss about an abusive relationship? It ending suddenly? xx

[anxiety18 in reply to Agora1]

i dont miss the abusei am lonely and hate it

[Agora1 in reply to anxiety18]

I know it's the loneliness that's difficult to take. x

The world is finding many lonely people today.

We can't use someone who abuses us as a way not to be lonely.

That was probably a blessing in disguise. You deserve better than that.

Use this as a learning experience in finding love within yourself. Use the

power of the internet to explore your options in conquering loneliness.

Find new ways to fill your time. (Art, Music, Writing)

their loneliness and sadness during these times. I'm glad you are here xx
