I think it just impossiple to have the sex your way, be satifating.And with someone you like. Pay someone. There are a lot people do that. Call Niteflirt.

Making friends is good and reaching out on here is good as well. Have you tried any self-care like doing something that usually makes you feel better? Treat yourself to something like Netflix and tea or a nice hot bath. When I'm especially anxious those things help distract me or calm me. If you feel lonely, try texting everyone in your phone list and seeing if anyone is up for a small conversation, or to get some coffee. I know none of this will cure the issues, but it will help you cope. I've seen a therapist before and I know that some will work with your budget or even work pro bono. It's worth asking around or even going to an initial consultation and asking if they can work with your financial circumstance.

peter...lol @ your advice. Very straightforward I must say.

I would suggest joining a support group. Do some online research in your area. There are meetups of all sort. It can make you feel accepted and therefore less lonely.
One night stand sex lacks in quality...so I would not recommend it. If its loneliness that you feel, you need some sort of friendship or relationship to fill up that social void.

    Has anyone else noticed that clearly speaking and doing things intentionally is liberating because it helps combat the feeling of depression and a sense of hopelessness? Let me share a little more: in my experience, when those who have tried to project a hidden agenda that is obviously not aligned with integrity and well-being, it's best to be firm and speak clearly from self-awareness and...
