Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Just feeling lonely and blue tonight and wanted to check in. All the busy-ness and positive thinking in the world doesn't make up for coming home and being by yourself with no one to share your day with and no one to snuggle with at night. It's so sad being alone. We aren't meant to be alone. I've been alone most of my life and it's taken a huge toll.
Going to bed early. Work tomorrow. Just all seem so pointless when you don't have someone special to share your life with. When no one is even there to hear you cry and no one even cares how sad and scared you are.
So sorry to hear how lonely you are. Some of us have a significant other but still feel lonely. Some people are happy being by themselves. I think it’s something that is within us that we need companionship more than others. Perhaps in our upbringing we felt lonely. I know I did. I wish I could have responded to you last night when you needed the comfort. Please know people care about you and wish to ease your loneliness.
What really ended up healing me of my intense loneliness was connection with others. I had to forge those connections. They didn't happen by accident. It took work on my part to find good, strong support systems.
Praying for you!
