Online chats?

[luckypuppy]

Hey I’m new here is there a 24/7 chat group or how do you talk to people about what you’re going through?

Hey luckypuppy,

Welcome to Anxiety and Depression Support.

HU doesn't have any chat groups -- none that I know of.

We post, as you just did, and also reply to others posts.

Sometimes you start to "click" with another member, and then you can exchange private messages with that person.

Ditto what NBP said.

What do you need to talk about?

[luckypuppy in reply to Rafiki11]

I’m just so lonely. I really love being in a relationship, all I want is to find my person. I was in a long term one that I thought was my soulmate so in the last year or so dating has been horrible because I haven’t found that person and I know it may take lots of time but I hate being alone. I miss sleeping next to someone so much

[Rafiki11 in reply to luckypuppy]

That makes sense. I remember feeling similarly in the past. Finding your person is a big decision.

What do you enjoy doing?

[luckypuppy in reply to Rafiki11]

The problem is I just can’t find anyone I connect with. The people I’m compatible with always end up hurting me and the ones who like me I don’t connect with it feels like I’m just unable to find someone to love and them love me back the way my ex and I had

[Rafiki11 in reply to luckypuppy]

That makes sense. What are you passionate about?

[luckypuppy]

I’m pretty happy with every other area of my life. Love my work and my dogs and family and friends. I reached out to my ex because I really want to be back with them but now I’m scared I’ve just opened up a window for me to get more hurt

I'm sorry that Your long term relationship didn't work well. How are you and your ex right now? Did he move on already? I know a friend who maintain friendship with her exes though her relationship with them both weren't short ones (less than a year). But it's still difficult for her to find the one when she goes back dating again. It's trial and error. Did you try online dating also? And what do you expect from the potential guy?

Hi LP.

U may feel this is a strange question BUT !!! What is ur relationship with urself on every level from the outside to the deepest depth of ur thoughts ?

Maybe being in a relationship is better for U as then U don't need to face upto the true inner U ?

It could be ur subconscious leading to look within & touch base with the U within & learn things that will help U to find the one !!!

As for reaching out to ur ex , there's nothing wrong with that but dont expect that they will want to get back together so just make sure it's as friends only. That if they don't want anything more it's not what U expected anyway.

I would suggest U look within deeper than just wanting to NOT BE ALONE . What scares U about it ??

[luckypuppy]

It doesn’t matter no one is ever going to love me so I’ll just have to get used to living alone or choosing not to be here

I think most of us have had a similar experience as you. I was with someone who was the love of my life and I really thought we would be together forever and boom one day it was over. I still have a lot of dreams about them too and we’ve been broken up for almost 17 years.

As for the chat question, I have a funny story for you.. when I joined this page I seen “chat” up top and it said 2 and I assumed it was a chat room. Well the numbers would go up so one day I thought maybe I’ll check it out seeing as there are a few people in there.. I clicked it and seen it was messages starting months before. Boy I felt dumb 😂.

Where in Canada do you live?

Maybe its because you are used to being in a relationship so when you are not you find that scary? To have a great job , dogs, family you are already very lucky. Lot of us in here have none of those things. But if you really need a relationship keep meeting people you will bound to find someone eventually. Probably when you arnt looking for them.

I have not posted or replied on here before .I have met many people over the years who wished they were in a relationship and I remember someone saying to me "don't go looking for love ,love will find you "

It's so true , things happen when we least expect it and those people who said they wouldn't find the right person have .

When I was younger I had relationships and when they ended , many times I would think I will never meet anyone and find the right person.

Some relationships broke down and others were good.

Good luck luckypuppy,

Gary

Hi Luckypuppy ,I am here if you wish to talk .

[DJB74]

I dont know. But that's what I need

Hello lucky puppy, I have just joined today and yours is the first post I have read. I am feeling exactly the same. I have a very blessed life, but have suddenly found myself living alone and I am really struggling. I miss sharing my life with someone and loving and and being loved. The feelings of loneliness are overwhelming and unbearable. I am tired of being told to love myself, etc. Nothing is working, I feel as though I will never find the happiness that I once had. I’m just feeling so sad, I hate waking up alone every morning.
