For the past few weeks I've not been feeling very great emotionally. For this next statement, I am not trying to be one sided about religion or so, if l am, sorry in advance. Okay, I am also a religious person and of late I've felt so withdrawn too with my spiritual life which makes me feel sad. I also have GAD and I feel so alone even if I talk to friends. Sometimes I feel that even some of the friends are just but a bunch of pretenders. And I cannot afford counseling for the time being having it that I am trying to make both ends meet with this Corona situation.
Kindly help, I feel so sad about myself and I don't feel good or even encouraged about myself at all .
Some friends tell me that I am very good because I'm always ready to help and it's majorly because I do that just to prove my friendship. I feel that if I don't do that I'll never have any friends. Currently I don't have someone I can share with even what I feel because my so called best friend is mad at me.
I've had lots of people telling me to stop worrying and not to give a damn about any person but I really can't avoid it because may be that is how I am.
The worries' depressing me. Helpp..

you are not alone in wanting to connect with others. At first when i read your post it sounded like you said you are doing great. So i thought- wonderful- someone is coping just fine- then i read further- and it sounds like no- you also feel alone and are NOT doing well. I dont know about you- but the covid situation has totally upended my support system. So i feel your pain. thank you for sharing it.
you absolutely dont have to apologize- just here to offer understanding too. Hopefully today will be a better day for you. Yes, take it one day, one hour, one minute at a time and we will get through it together. Take care.
Hello. I can somewhat relate. I hide my feelings in fear of being a pain and then people (even my friends) will leave. People can tell you to stop worrying til they're blue in the face, but the way we are, we can't just flip a switch and stop. I know I need to practice what I preach so-to-speak, I deal with a lot of the same things. I know it'll get better. We will get through it. But we need help and reassurance. We just need someone to say we're not crazy and we feel the way we feel for a reason. We may not know what it is, and maybe they can't help, but just not making us feel alone is what will help us through this. I feel alone a lot, and I know I'm not. You will get through this, so will I, so will everyone else. We just have to take it day by day. We'll have good ones and bad ones. But we'll make it. Hope this helps in some way. 🖤
I’m so sorry that you feel this way. This pandemic affects the lives of most people. I have a friend who just had a panic attack because aside from pandemic there were riots and looting going on.
You have mentioned about your spiritual life which makes you feel sad. There may be reasons why you have drifted from God. In my experience, I have learned that my relationship with God is the answer to every sadness and discouragement that I had. If you need help regarding your spiritual life you can talk to any spiritual leader from your local church. You can also message me.
Continue to share. I hope this forum can help you not to feel alone. When I was going through deep sadness, I found comfort after I shared in one of the online support groups. Keep us posted. May you be surrounded with God’s peace and strength.
