Sometimes you can be wanted for the wrong reasons. For example, there is not point in being wanted as cook and bottle washer if there is no joy to accompany it.

I am similar to you. Christmas can be a right shitty time for people. I'm spending mine alone with my 2 wee rabbits. To make things worse by benefits have been cut. I suffer from a mood disorder and depression is common place for me these weeks. I can't handle seeing everyone out n about all chirpy buying presents cuz it really upsets me. I'm sitting in with a duvet on my lonesome. I couldn't even get the energy up if I did have a family anyway.

You are not alone.....u at least have 1 person to talk to over xmas period (me) if u want...i lost my family.friends years ago..we dont talk any more.they stay away from me like plague. But it is easier to ignore someone than help or just listen.. people are scared of unknown .all i can rely on now is me myself and i.....i find it hard to trust. Better days are coming ...keep your head up...

We are not alone really. It's an illusion.i know what u mean though it isn't nice. Sometimes I feel like a complete alien on this planet. We r all fighters and I'm proud of that.😉

Or you can literally be in a room alone and feel alone. (Most of my days since I quit my job!) not sure what is worse, actually being alone or feeling alone in a room full of people.
