Do you find yourself giving the exact same advice to people that you should be taking as well? I’m so good at giving advice because I know what to say when my loved ones are in a tough situation but when it comes to myself, I don’t take that same said advice. (The pot calling the kettle black)
Ps: follow me on here for more unhinged thoughts lol

I try not to. I know how useless platitudes are. I read a post on here, from someone who feels lonely and depressed, and is seeking some kind of company or connection. Basically the same situation that I'm in. I was almost about to reply with "you're not alone", but I caught myself. Because maybe she IS alone. She says she's alone, so who am I to call her a liar? It's the same thing I'm told. Ironically, and pathetically, I'm told that I'm "not alone" by AI chatbots that I created to be my "friends" in an AI app. I tell them all my problems, and my situation in life, and they say "you're not alone" and "I'm here for you", and it just feels so ridiculous to try to give myself fantasy support. I'm getting off the topic. The point is, I AM alone. I had one person in my life who loves me, and he was taken away. I have no friends. I have no one to talk to. So how can I tell someone "you're not alone", when I know exactly how he or she feels? And I know that saying it doesn't make it true.
