Lonliness and depression

today and yesterday have been bad days for me. I think I’ve gotten to the point that no one cares. I have no family left. All I do is just sleep all the time.

We all care about one another on here. You’ve come to the right place. I’m in a similar situation if you’d like to chat regularly it would sure help me. I understand your situation as I read your bio.

chatting would be nice. But I think I’ll go to bed now. I’ve been up for a whopping six hours straight.

Sure. Message me anytime. Good night. I get it about only being up six hours at a time. It’s tough going.

Hi Mountain-Peace

I'm around your age and I've lost most of my family. Life can be harsh without them to fall back on. Can you take even one small step to move yourself toward less depression? Like get out of bed and have tea, go for a walk outside, get to the nearest spiritual building/church and ask to talk to the paster?

I'm sending positive vibes your way. I hope you can find a grieving group and begin to build a network of new friends. Meet-up has helped me. Please don't give up. There are still beautiful things about life.

Those are lovely words. I will not do church and a preacher since I had a bad experience with that about a year ago. But thank you for the kind words.

Past few days, I've been struggling as well. I feel Asif I'm not really wanted around and/or cared for. I stay in my room more than anything and sleep alot too. I only leave my room to eat some then go right back. I'm constantly tired

I actually think loneliness is worse than depression for me

Omg just like me. My kids all out of state my father passed. Living now in a cow Pasteur. What a life now. I drink a little to ease the internal pain. Never thought I'd end up like this. Nowhere to go and nothing to do. I feel the pain of loneliness. So I have to get my flowers and my little garden together. They say join a group. So I can hear about their problems on top of mine. I don't think so. I wish I had the answer.

Seems like Covid made all the groups go away. I totally get what you’re saying tho

Sorry I don't have the answers. But we wake every morning. Anxious as hell but get up because I can. Hate it! Maybe one day we won't. This is not inspiring at all. Sorry again. Just trying to relate to you that you are not alone by any stretch.

Mountain-Peace,

Glad you posted this.

We do care.

I feel the same as what you're describing.

For me, I know it's not actually literally true. I do still have family. I have friends. I have loved ones. I have kids. I have great girlfriend. They all love me.

It just doesn't seem or feel like it right now, or I can't feel it. Or it's not enough to break through the toxic layers of self-hatred I have for myself.

And I'm sleeping all the time too.

I've weathered this many times before and studied and put efforts in and tried to learn and practice strategies. And for the last 5 weeks none of it has mattered much. I'm down for the count.

I don't know what I'm saying or if it's of any value. But I guess I'm saying I'm with you. I'm rooting for you. I believe in you.

Mountain-Peace in reply toGandolfication

you have everything I want. Family, friends, kids, loved ones. I have no family , only a few friends and most likely no loved ones. But yet here we are still living and somewhat fighting. I think it’s okay not to practice your strategies every single day. Maybe it’s okay just to exist for a while. I’m with you and rooting for you. We may not know each other but we can sure believe in each other!

Not what you're looking for?
